How old are you with Exchange?

On-Prem VS Cloud

On-Prem VS Cloud

Why not going hybrid?

Best of two worlds

Ability to go back and forth with mailboxes

Federation Trust (enables free/busy, calendar sharing, etc)

All in one management from on-prem

More storage (mailbox, mailbox+Online archive, Online archive)

Client autoconfiguration

No new profile or OST regeneration needed

No local bandwidth shared with mobile users

…

Requirements for going hybrid Exchange 2010SP3+ / 2013CU2+

If Exchange 2007 > SP3RU10 AND at least one Exchange 2013CU2 CAS and MBX roles*

Office365 M, G, E and A plans. So NO SB plans

Office365 tenant must be 15.0.620.28+ and no Transitioning services true status:

Custom domain registered already in Office365 Subscription

Autodiscover DNS record correctly configured pointing to on-prem CAS server

WAAD Sync Tool (DirSync) deployed and working

SAN Certificate with EWS and Autodiscover URIs included (sorry no self-signed certs)

IF want Online Archive feature: ADFS and SSO is recommended

Always go with RCA tool:

What about Edge servers?: Exchange 2010 SP3+ OR Exchange 2013 SP1

Get-OrganizationConfig | Format-List AdminDisplayVersion,IsUpgradingOrganization

Going Hybrid!

Centralized Transport

Great for compliance and regulations

Secure Mail is the main base

The OnPremisesSmartHost FQDN can be: A Single EX2013CAS, EX2013/2010 EDGE server

Multiple round robin EX2013CAS, EX2013/2010 EDGE servers

Multiple LB EX2013CAS, EX2013/2010 EDGE servers (great for High availability)

Create an extra “*.*” connector to forward outgoing mail through EOP from On-Premises.

Done? , not yet…

MRS Mailbox Replication Service Proxy allows you to move mailboxes to/from Exchange Online

You can choose to move Mailbox, Archive or both

Can be Configured via GUI or through PS

Can schedule mailbox moves

Get-WebServicesVirtualDirectory | Set-WebServicesVirtualDirectory -MRSProxyEnabled $true

What about EDGE?

Good for not exposing internal CAS or MBX servers to Internet

Optional but recommended

Exchange 2010 SP3 or Exchange 2013 SP1

THANKS!
