Real-Time Collaboration and Mobility Seminar - Toronto Day 1 (opening)


Tags :


A little change from Chicago a couple weeks ago.  Sizes of installations go from 35 to ~140,000 users for Sametime.  There is a couple still sprinkled in that are in the planning stages so I hope they get to take a lot away from the seminar.  Versions installed run from 3.1 to 7.5.

After covering the bandwidth and basic server build session again, many were left for lack of better words, stunned.  A few were there to gain some more insight into the whole bandwidth area.  I am beginning to see a trend develop that I bet will continue.  Getting a handle on what they need to support a fully implemented Sametime 7.5 environment including all features and functions.

IBM once again took the stage with a local person from Toronto that did a good job.  We lost Internet for a moment in the first session but recovered and continued on after lunch.  He had local servers which assisted in the outage.

Next up is plug-ins and I am curious to see what ideas this group has for expanding them into their deployments.  I will let you know shortly.
