Disclaimer: this presentation is based on the first beta of Exchange Server 2010. This one is not feature complete!– Features might be added– Features might be changed– Features might be removed
Exchange Server 2007
X64 bit enhancements Scalability (memory) Reduction in disk I/O Active Directory sites routing ‘Traditional’ clustering with shared
storage Database replication – LCR, CCR and
SCR

Roles can be on dedicated hardware or combined, except for Edge Transport
Mailbox Server Role
Contains Mailboxes and Public Folders– MAPI Clients do not connect to MBX– MAPI Clients do connect to PF
Extensible Storage Engine (ESE) High Availability via replication
Database changes
Drastic changes in the database schema
Less tables, less indexes better performance
Database page size from 8KB to 32KB
Host large mailboxes (>1 GB) Database and log files on one SATA
disk SIS is gone…
Database changes cont’d
Storage Groups are gone Database, log files and checkpoint Database no longer on server level
but on organization level

Intra-org: transition Inter-org: migration
Conclusion
It’s too early to make any conclusion Exchange 2010 looks promising Database Availability is key feature Less complexity (esp. on clusters) Database changes, less disk I/O Start looking, start playing, but
please don’t bring it into production yet!
