Microsoft Exchange Server 2010 Support ServicesAt the Tech•Ed Europe 2009 conference in Berlin, Business Division President Stephen Elop announced the release of Microsoft Exchange 2010. With a new structure that improves availability, bolsters security, reduces cost of ownership, and simplifies administration, Exchange Server 2010 joins Windows 7 and Microsoft Windows Server 2008 as a member of a new generation of information technology solutions designed to increase business productivity and profitability.

Exchange 2010’s improvements in the area of system uptime include the introduction of database availability groups that continuously copy mailboxes and offer fast, unassisted restoration from disk or processor failures without complex hardware clustering schemes. Features like retention control policies, role-based connection control, and block or quarantine lists for wireless devices improve security and compliance. To accelerate ROI, Microsoft Exchange 2010 can conserve as much as 20% on support costs, 50% on server fault tolerance, 40% on voice mail costs, and 70% on disk storage. To see Microsoft's news release, refer to Microsoft Releases Exchange Server 2010.
