  4. Plan for Basic Deploymnet

  5. Ideal for Basic OCS 2007 Scenario • Proof of Concept/Pilot • Branch Office Standard Edition Deployment Functionality • IM, Presence, Peer-to-peer Voice, Conferencing • No External Access, Not Highly Available • PSTN requires Mediation Server AD Server Roles • Co-located on one server • Presence, IIS Share, Conferencing, A/V Standard Edition Scalability • 1 Server • Up to 5,000 users

  6. Plan for Enterprise deployment

  10. Key Planning Considerations • Functional requirements • Will I deploy Voice? • Will I deploy Conferencing? • Do I need to provide access outside the corporate firewall? • Do I have compliance requirements for IM and conferencing? • Site Analysis • How many sites do I have? • What is the bandwidth at each site? • How many users at each site? • Deployment Path • Am I migrating from Live Communications Server 2005? • Is this a proof-of-concept deployment?

  11. OCS 2007 Deployment Options

  12. Example Deployment • Consolidated Configuration Scenario Enterprise Edition • Medium Size Business • Regional Deployment Functionality AD • IM, Presence, Peer-to-peer Voice, Conferencing • Highly Available, Medium Scale • No External Access • PSTN requires Mediation Server Server Roles SQL Enterprise Edition Front-End Servers: Consolidated Scalability • IIS Share • Audio/Video • Presence • Conferencing • 5 Servers • Up to 30,000 users

  13. Example Deployment Expanded Configuration ScenarioEnterprise Edition • Large Enterprise • Central Datacenter Functionality AD • IM, Presence, Voice, Conferencing • No external access, No PSTN Server Roles Enterprise Edition Front-End Servers: Expanded Active Passive • Scaled-out across servers • High Availability, High scale Scalability A/V Conferencing Servers Web Conferencing Servers IIS Servers • 14 Servers • Up to 125,000 users Enterprise Pool: Expanded

  14. External Access Configuration ScenarioEnterprise Edition Example Deployment • Large Enterprise • Central Datacenter AccessEdge Server Functionality AD • External access to IM, Presence, Voice, Conferencing • Browser base access Traffic: SIP Web Conf Edge Server Server Roles Traffic: PSOM Enterprise Edition Front-End Servers: Expanded Active Passive • Scaled-out across servers • High Availability, High scale A/V Conf Edge Server Scalability Traffic: A/V Web Conf Servers IIS Servers A/V Conf Servers • 14 Servers • Up to 125,000 users Enterprise Pool: Expanded ISA (Reverse Proxy) Traffic: HTTPS

  15. Global Deployment With Voice Scenario AD External Access (Primary) Primary Site Enterprise Edition Front-End Servers: Expanded Enterprise Pool: Expanded Active Passive A/V Conferencing Servers Web Conferencing Servers IIS Servers PSTN Region I B B B A B A Loc 1 Directors Secondary Site IP-PSTN GW IP-PSTN GW IP-PSTN GW IP-PSTN GW IP-PSTN GW IP-PSTN GW Loc 2 External Access (Secondary) PSTN Region II Loc 1 Loc 3 Loc 2 Enterprise Pool: Consolidated Loc 3 Mediation Server Mediation Server Mediation Server

  16.
