Conventional wisdom is that Exchange systems should be distributed throughout an organisation with at least one server in every large office. ICL has overturned this wisdom by producing a centralised Exchange system of 50,000 users for the UK central government, with the benefits of faster deployment, cheaper systems management and higher availability. This session will describe how ICL achieved this and how ICL is now applying the lessons learnt from Exchange to providing further consolidated, centralised solutions with enterprise qualities based upon other Microsoft BackOffice products.About Stuart Forbes:
