Planning for Fast Site Creation

SharePoint Server 2019 includes a feature called fast site creation. Fast site creation allows the provisioning of new sites in a matter of seconds. Fast site creation is only enabled with the following templates, where POLICY# is the identity of the site template being used:

  • A OneDrive personal site SPSPERS#10
  • A team site (modern only) STS#3
  • A communication site SITEPAGEPUBLISHING#0

Fast site creation is activated when using the following provisioning mechanisms:

  • OneDrive personal site auto-provisioning
  • The Create Site button in SharePoint Home
  • Using the -CreateFromSiteMaster parameter with the New-SPSite PowerShell command

There is nothing to do to further enable fast site creation—you just need to use the correct SharePoint site templates and provisioning methods.
