Lesson 2: Design Lync Server 2013 Persistent Chat

Organizational Requirements
Server Infrastructure Designing a Persistent Chat Room

Organizational Requirements Key pre-deployment questions: Who should be enabled, which user profiles? How many users should be enabled? Whats the migration scenario? Are there compliance or regulatory requirements? How do you want to control scopes, ethical boundaries, and access? How do you want to create rooms? What kind of add-ins do you want to provision? What kind of high availability and disaster recovery requirements do you have?

Server Infrastructure
Registration Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) Chat communication (XCCOS over SIP)
Lync Pool A Dependent Lync Pool Lync Pool B XCCOS over SIP

Enterprise Edition (EE) topology

Multiple Lync pools One or more Persistent Chat pools

Persistent Chat Pool

Each with up to four active Persistent Chat servers supporting 80K concurrent endpoints

Lync 2013 client

Persistent Chat Pool

Servers can be virtualized Recommended standalone database

for persistent chat content and compliance database availability

SQL mirroring for database high Stretched pool for disaster recovery,

with SQL log shipping

Designing a Persistent Chat Room Persistent Chat Room best practices Single category scope Enable users to create new chat rooms Relevant metadata Custom room creation workflow Use add-ins

Lesson 3: Deploy and Configure Lync Server 2013 Persistent Chat

Deploy Persistent Chat
Configure and Manage a Room

Deploy Persistent Chat Persistent Chat Deployment Steps: 1. Add (one or more) Persistent Chat pools to the topology 2. Deploy Persistent Chat server 3. Configure administrators by using the Role Based Access Control (RBAC) 4. Configure persistent chat

Configure and Manage a Room

Role Administrators Abilities can delete earlier content from any chat room to keep the database from growing too large. Or, they can remove or replace messages that are considered inappropriate for a particular chat room.
