Session Outline
This session covers topics relating to successful Exchange migration, which can result in improved scalability and reliability while increasing productivity. We will discuss deployment scenarios and related concepts while covering Exchange Server 2003 and its system and network infrastructure requirements. We will see Exchange deployment tools in action and cover the Active Directory Connector, detailing how it works and why you need it to connect the Exchange 5.5 directory service to Active Directory. We will then use the integrated tools to migrate resources from the Exchange 5.5 server as well as the separate tools that are provided to move other Exchange resources such as Public Folders and System Folders. We will learn how Exchange tools make upgrading and migrating from previous versions easier and cover new guidance, deployment, and verification tools that make the job easier while reducing risk and the payback period. Exchange, in combination with Windows Server 2003 and Office 2003, delivers the best e-mail-based collaboration capabilities while decreasing ownership costs through more capable management tools and advanced support for site and server consolidation.
