Before anything else quickly define the term "unified communications" is the key word of this project. Unified Communications is defined as a process in which all communications devices and communication media are integrated, allowing users to reach everyone, anywhere and in real time. The goal of Unified Communications is to optimize business processes and stimulate communications by simplifying the process. To implement these we will make unified communications deployment Office Communications Server 2007 R1. Microsoft Office Communications Server (OCS) 2007 is, remember, an enterprise product that integrates the means of communication in real-time detection of user presence, including web conferencing (sharing data, audio and video) , instant messaging and audio / video conversations. Microsoft invited on the market for unified communications company with a solution including instant messaging, e-mail and telephone communications, and providing a bridge between these different services. The publisher's marketing October 1 platform called Office Communications Server 2007 (OCS 2007). Its solution Office Communications Server 2007 must enable company employees to communicate via instant messaging, with a pro version of Windows Live Messenger renamed "Communicator". It also enables audio chat in VoIP, ever since Communicator or through an office phone is compatible. Finally, OCS 2007 is used to organize conferences audio or video, and share documents.
But the main advantage of Microsoft's product is its high level of integration with Exchange Server. As long as the company also has the mail server from Microsoft, synergies are possible between Outlook and instant messaging features or OCS telephony. Example Scenario: the user is late for a meeting entered on its Outlook calendar. It calls the mail from its mobile and said, all through voice recognition, it will be delayed. OCS 2007 will then send via Exchange Server, e-mails to all meeting participants to prevent them. Other functions also available via OCS 2007 as listen to its e-mails on the phone with the voice synthesis module, synchronized calendar and directory of Outlook contact or one-click a conversation, instant messaging or VoIP, when one reads one of its emails or even if its name appears in an Office document, such as Microsoft Word. All functions are accessible from PCs, telephones compatible desktop and conference facilities. The VoIP uses a proprietary protocol of Microsoft, derived from the SIP standard, but incompatible with it. We must therefore incorporate information system server mediation, if one wants to live with a real SCO platform SIP.
