Cool developments for Microsoft Online Services (MOS).
Through a partnership with Hewlett-Packard’s EDS division, Microsoft will gain access to data center capacity around the world that will enable it to deliver its cloud-based Exchange, SharePoint and Business Productivity Online Suite. (channelinsider)
From my experience the greatest benefit of this is that governement and corporate clients will not have their data subjected to the Patriot Act.
(S)tarting today, Microsoft is offering a 25 percent discount on the Business Productivity Online Suite to customers who purchase it by the end of June 2009. More information about the services and global availability can be found at http://www.microsoft.com/online.
Discounts are always good. I still want to know haw MOS plan to deal with Extranet and Web Content management sceanrios with their SharePoint offering.
On a persoanl note. I’m still a little sore with MOS because they didn’t want to hire me :-) but that is my problem.
