Application Analysis Envisioning Process for Lotus Domino Applications
This guide discusses the Application Analysis Envisioning Process (AAEP) for Lotus Domino applications. The AAEP provides you with a process to identify and classify Lotus Domino infrastructure, understand their core components and functionality, and accurate guidance for a recommended target solution. The primary goal of this process is to encourage a standard approach that you can use to define migration and target solution recommendations, as well as estimate migration costs and timelines. New versions of the Application Analyzer and the Application Transporter tool for Lotus Domino have been released as part of the Microsoft Transporter Suite for Lotus Domino. This document contains information about the Microsoft Application Analyzer 2006 for Lotus Domino and the Exchange Transporter versions of the tools.

Podcasts: How Microsoft IT Implemented New Storage Designs for Exchange Server 2007
How does Exchange Server 2007 enable a large enterprise to increase mailbox quotas globally by a factor of ten and still lower storage costs, reduce maintenance complexities, and simplify data recovery processes? Microsoft IT was able to take advantage of Cluster Continuous Replication (CCR) in new mailbox server designs based on direct attached storage (DAS). Advantages of CCR and DAS over alternative configurations will be discussed along with how MSIT was able to eliminate storage as a single point of failure while at the same time lowering costs to two dollars per gigabyte.
