MICROSOFT EXCHANGE SERVER 2022 - PLANNING & DESIGNING MICROSOFT LYNC SERVER SOLUTIONS
The Planning & Designing Microsoft Lync Server Solutions course is a professional, architecture-focused program designed to equip participants with the skills required to plan, design, and architect enterprise unified communications solutions using Microsoft Lync Server. Microsoft Lync Server, developed by Microsoft, provides integrated instant messaging, presence, voice, video, and conferencing capabilities. This course emphasizes solution design rather than day-to-day administration, focusing on requirements analysis, capacity planning, topology design, high availability, security, and integration with existing infrastructure. The program is ideal for architects and senior engineers responsible for designing reliable, scalable, and secure unified communications environments, including on-premises and hybrid deployments. Course Objectives By the end of this course, participants will be able to: Analyze business and technical requirements for Lync deployments Design Lync Server architectures and topologies Plan for capacity, performance, and scalability Design high availability and disaster recovery solutions Integrate Lync Server with existing infrastructure and services Address security, compliance, and operational considerations
