Load balancing Microsoft Lync

About Microsoft Lync

Microsoft Lync and its client software, such as Lync 2013, enable your users to connect in new ways and to stay connected, regardless of their physical location. Lync and Lync Server bring together the different ways that people communicate in a single client interface, are deployed as a unified platform, and are administered through a single management infrastructure.

Users seek communications tools that make their work easier and are available anywhere, anytime – including within the context of other applications. Microsoft Lync provides a single interface that unites voice communications, IM, and audio, video, and Web conferencing into a richer, more contextual offering.

Here are a few key benefits:

• Ensures the application is always available
• Provides a stable, optimal performance
• Ability to isolate servers which reduces risk when performing upgrades/maintenance
