About Exiis Corporation
Exiis Corporation is the nation’s premier provider for enterprise-class messaging solutions based on Microsoft Exchange 2007 Server Products and Technologies. Since 1993, Exiis Corporation has been providing local and national support consulting services, starting with the initial release of Microsoft Exchange Server 4.0 and continuing forward with the latest release. Our extensive experience with Microsoft Exchange Server Technologies makes us an ideal choice when local resources or current IT staff lack the experience and expertise to take your messaging environment to the next level.

Exchange Server Migrations and Upgrades
Organizations that currently have Exchange 2000 or Exchange 2003 looking to migrate to Exchange 2007 will need to plan for the deployment. The planning process in migrating an environment involves ensuring the existing environment is ready for a migration, and that the hardware necessary for to accept the migrated server roles is compatible. Since Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 is based entirely on a 64-bit environment, there is no way to perform an “in-place” upgrade from earlier releases.

These diverse backgrounds bring additional skill sets to the table, providing additional support options and experience.

Understanding Microsoft Exchange 2007 Server Roles
Implementations of Microsoft Exchange 2007 Server environments have three primary layers to their architecture: the network layer, the Active Directory layer and the messaging layer. Beginning in 2007, Microsoft introduced Exchange Administrators and Organizations to a new, secure messaging platform designed on the concept of server “roles”. Server roles allow organizations to deploy a more secure messaging platform while providing for the flexibility to upgrade, expand, and off-set server load processing as the organization expands. Not all server roles can be installed on to a single server, specifically, the Microsoft Edge Transport Server, which requires its own hardware to operate. Fortunately, the remaining server roles which provide the core messaging solution to smaller company’s can still be installed on to a single server, provided the messaging requirements are small and the traffic is relatively light. The drawing below demonstrates how these new server roles are deployed in the typical enterprise environment.
