Product Description
Mission-Critical
Microsoft Exchange 2000 is the definitive book on how to design and maintain extremely reliable and adaptive Exchange Server messaging systems that rarely crash and that preserve valuable data and services in spite of technical disruptions. E-mail systems are now a primary means of communication for organizations, which can afford e-mail down-time no more than they can afford to be without phones. Further, messaging systems increasingly are supporting vital applications in addition to e-mail, such as workflow and knowledge management, making the data they store both voluminous and incredibly valuable.
Mission-Critical
Microsoft Exchange 2000 teaches system designers, administrators and developers the strategies, tools, and best practices they'll need to plan and implement highly-available systems on Exchange 2000 and on earlier versions of Exchange. The book explains Exchange back-up and disaster recovery techniques, Windows clustering technologies for Exchange systems, and security planning to resist messaging-based attacks. Written by Jerry Cochran, an authority on large-scale Exchange systems, Mission-Critical

Reader ReviewsThis book is very well done and covers many of the subtle points of designing and implementing a rock solid Exchange 2000 infrastructure. There is a great amount of detail around appropriate backup and restore processes and procedures, which is often times an after thought in some implementations. Service level agreements as well as defining "server down time" is also covered in much detail. Often times it is some of the "softer" aspects of design that can differentiate an initially successful implementation from one that will stay successful and stand the test of time--this book goes a long way to provide help in this area. I would recommend this book for anyone embarking on designing and building any Exchange 2000 deployment. It would also serve well as a checkpoint for designs that have already been done or implemented to ensure that any gaps can be identified and filled prior to problems arising.
