15 Microsoft Confidential
 What Is the Mailbox Server Role?
A server that houses the logic to route a specific protocol
request to the correct destination end point
A server that hosts all the components that process,
render, and store the data
Clients do not connect directly to MBX2016 back-end end
points; connectivity is through client access services
Evolution of Exchange 2010 DAG

16 Microsoft Confidential
 The Key to Enlightenment
For a given mailboxs
connectivity, the protocol being
used is always served by the
protocol instance that is local to
the active database copy
Each MBX determines the right
endpoint for the traffic, and so all
sessionsirrespective of where
they startedend up in the same
place
This means that the rendering for
clients like OWA occurs on the MBX-A MBX-B

mailbox server, transport

transcoding is occurring on the
mailbox server, and so on

 MAPI over HTTP
MAPI over HTTP is now the default protocol
MAPI over HTTP improves the reliability and stability of the
Outlook and Exchange connections
Use industry-standard HTTP model
Support for an explicit pause-and-resume function
This enables supported clients to change networks or resume from
hibernation while maintaining the same server context
MAPI over HTTP is not enable in organizations where the
following are true:
You are installing Exchange 2016 in an organization that already has
Exchange 2013 servers installed
MAPI over HTTP was not enabled in Exchange 2013

28 Microsoft Confidential
 Office 365 hybrid
The Hybrid Configuration Wizard (HCW) is now a cloud-
based application
The wizard can be updated quickly
Improved troubleshooting and diagnostics
The same wizard will be used by everyone configuring a hybrid
deployment who is running Exchange 2013 or Exchange 2016
Multi-forest hybrid deployments: simplified with Azure Active
Directory Connect (AADConnect)
Hybrid deployments will support the new modern
authentication model in Outlook
Exchange ActiveSync clients will be seamlessly redirected to
Office 365 when a user's mailbox is moved to Exchange
Online

29 Microsoft Confidential
 Document Collaboration
Exchange 2016 will enable Outlook on the web users to link
to and share documents stored in Microsoft OneDrive for
Business in an on-premises SharePoint server instead of
attaching a file to the message
Users will be able to collaborate on files in an on-premises
deployment as they can do today in Office 365
Option of viewing and editing files in Outlook on the web
alongside the message (Office Online Server required)
Other improvements include the following:
Saving a file to OneDrive
Uploading a file to OneDrive

mailboxes and In-Place Archives in an Exchange 2016
organization and copy messages to a discovery mailbox for
review
Public folder support for In-Place eDiscovery and In-Place Hold
Exchange 2016 has integrated public folders into the In-Place
eDiscovery and Hold workflow

Re-designed search pipeline for improved reliability and speed
Ability to place public folder data on hold
Connect to the cloud for advanced analytics powered by Equivio Zoom
Unlimited number of mailboxes can be searched through cmdlet

35 Microsoft Confidential
 Search Architecture Improvements
The overall speed of server side search is significantly improved in
Exchange 2016
The local search instance is now able to read data from the local
mailbox database copy
Passive search instances no longer need to coordinate with their active
counterparts to perform index updates
Bandwidth requirements between the active copy and a passive copy have been
reduced by 40 percent compared to previous versions of Exchange

36 Microsoft Confidential
 Transport Rules
You can use Exchange transport rules to look for specific
conditions in messages that pass through your
organization and take action on them

Exchange transport rules can now identify 80 different types of
sensitive information
New condition Any attachment has these properties, including
any of these words
