  • You Had Me At EHLO… : Should You Virtualize Your Exchange 2007 SP1 Environment? – With the release of Microsoft Windows Server 2008 with Hyper-V and Microsoft Hyper-V Server 2008, a virtualized Exchange 2007 SP1 server is no longer restricted to the realm of the lab; it can be deployed in a production environment and receive full support from Microsoft. This past August, we published our support policies and recommendations for virtualizing Exchange, but many people have asked us to go beyond that guidance and weigh-in on the more philosophical question: is virtualization is a good idea when it comes to Exchange?
  • Future-Proofing A Design – Designing code to be future-proof without a clear understanding of what the future holds often leads to excess generality; generality has very real costs, and they might be higher than the benefit accrued.
    Design your code to solve the well-understood problem. If you design it to solve an unknown future problem, odds are good that you're going to solve it poorly, making even more work for the future.

  • svn-bisect – This tool's purpose is to help you determine which revision of a subversion repository contains a change. It does this by employing a binary search. It will manage the current revision of your checkout directory, and narrow in on the target revision, as you give it clues about the current revision such as "before" (this revision is before the one you want) or "after" (this revision is after the one you want).

  • Standby Continuous Replication – Standby continuous replication (SCR) is a new feature introduced in Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 Service Pack 1 (SP1). As its name implies, SCR is designed for scenarios that use or enable the use of standby recovery servers. SCR extends the existing continuous replication features found in the release to manufacturing (RTM) version of Exchange Server 2007 and enables new data availability scenarios for Mailbox servers running SP1. SCR uses the same log shipping and replay technology used by local continuous replication (LCR) and cluster continuous replication (CCR) to provide added deployment options and configurations.
