With Microsoft Exchange Server 2010 SP1 built-in multi-tenant support, service providers that use Service Provider Licensing Agreement (SPLA) no longer need a solution like Hosted Messaging and Collaboration (HMC) to host multiple organizations. Multi-tenant support provides the core feature-set of Exchange Server in a manner that can be deployed to multiple customers in a single installation, and provides ease of management and flexibility of provided features to end-users.
The multi-tenant solution available for Exchange 2010 SP1 includes most of the features and functionality available in Exchange 2010 SP1 Enterprise deployments, but also includes features and functionality that will allow you to create and manage tenant organizations.
Microsoft Exchange Server 2010 SP1 will form part of the suite of multi-tenant capable products that will replace the Hosted Messaging and Collaboration 4.5 solution.
What's Available in Exchange
2010 SP1 Mulit-Tenant Deployments
The following features and functionality are unique to multi-tenant deployments:
- Hosting Installation When you install
Exchange 2010 SP1 for multi-tenant deployments, you will run the
installation from the command line and include the /hosting
switch. Once installed, your servers will be running in Hosting
Mode.
- Tenant Organization
Configuration Because you will be creating and
managing multiple organizations in the multi-tenant deployment, you
can use cmdlets and parameters that aren't available to Enterprise
deployments. For more information, see Checklist: Create a
Tenant Organization.
- Service Plans A service plan allows you
to enable or disable certain features when deploying tenant
organizations. They simplify tenant administration by automatically
setting up feature configuration and automatic feature provisioning
of mailboxes. In addition, service plans allow you to grant the
correct set of RBAC permissions to tenant based on available
features.
- Mailbox Plans A mailbox plan is
a template that automatically populates multiple user properties
and assigns default permissions to new or existing user accounts.
You use mailbox plans to provision accounts for a particular user
population with a common default configuration.
For more information, see Understanding Service Plans and Mailbox Plans.
