HVMC v3.5 training

  • Article

I am up in Redmond this week for training on our new High Volume Messaging and Collaboration (HVMC) release, v3.5. I got "nominated" to go to the training because both Gloria Alexander and Todd Luttinen, our resident Hosted Exchange experts, deserted us and moved to product teams (Todd went to Exchange, Gloria to the Hosting Solutions group).

I haven't really done much Hosted Exchange work since 2003 when I helped Deutsche Telekom migrate off MCIS to Exchange 2000. Back when I did Hosted Exchange, it was difficult because we didn't have any tools, guides, provisioning systems, etc. We have come a long way, and I am really impressed by the cohesion we have with the latest solution, as well as the guidance on deployment.

We also have awesome partners like implement.com that have implemented Hosted Exchange infrastructures that support millions of users.

As soon as it is released, I will try and describe some of the cool new things we can do with v3.5
