Server Consolidation for Exchange 2003
similar to Exchange 2000
Exchange 5.5 customers will see similar
consolidation opportunities for Exchange
2000/2003 (using Outlook 2000/2002/2003)
Exchange 2000 customers will not get
additional consolidation using Exchange
2003
Site / Network Consolidation
Site Consolidation for Exchange 5.5 & 2000:
Outlook 2000/2002, no site consolidation opportunity
Outlook 2003, it depends on:
size of organization, Public Folder and Free Busy usage,
and Outlook 2003 features enabled/disabled (Cached
Mode, OAB size, drizzle mode)
Site consolidation possible using all OWA clients
(GZip compression)
Network bandwidth reduction possible using
Outlook 2003 Cached Exchange Mode
Assume approx 30-40% network savings
End-users are shielded from network outages
End-users perform local searches faster than
previous clients
RPC/HTTP removes requirement for RAS/VPN
overhead
