Exchange 2003 Deployment Considerations for Small and Medium Business

Overview Microsoft Exchange is one of the most popular and widely used email applications. This paper examines the performance & scalability for different numbers of users on a Dell PowerEdge 2800 running Microsoft Exchange 2003 Server. The numbers of users have been chosen keeping in mind the requirements of small & medium business customers. Standard tools like LoadSim & JetStress were used to simulate the Exchange environment. An extensive study of the performance data reveals that the discussed Exchange setup can support up to 900 Exchange users, if it is used as a dedicated Exchange server.
