Pro Exchange 2019 and 2016 Administration

Use this one-stop resource for both basic and advanced administration of Exchange Server 2019 and 2016. It will help you in running an Exchange environment, whether it be 100% on-premises or a hybrid configuration with Exchange Online (as part of Office 365).

This revised version is divided into four sections, describing Exchange infrastructure, upgrading Exchange server, integration with Office 365, and security and compliance. In the first section, you will go through a short introduction of Exchange server followed by its installation and configuration. You will learn client access along with Exchange mailbox and managing Exchange recipients. In the second section, you will learn how to upgrade from Exchange 2010 to 2016 and from 2013 to Exchange 2019. The third section is dedicated to the Exchange integration with Office 365, followed by the last section that teaches you how to secure your Exchange environment and its compliance.

After reading this book, you will understand best practices, do's and don'ts, and notes from the field to migrate and work on Exchange 2016 and 2019.

You will:

• Create a highly available and redundant Exchange environment
• Understand security, message hygiene (CEO fraud, for example), and compliance
• Know the infrastructure changes in Exchange 2019
• Integrate and manage hybrid recipients
