APA Engineers Better Messaging Platform With HP and Microsoft

Overview

The charter of APA ? The Engineered Wood Association is to strengthen and develop the market for engineered wood products throughout the world. The company wanted to better serve the critical messaging needs of staff and association members with a strong new unified messaging infrastructure built on a robust 64-bit server platform. APA began its beta tests by running the new Exchange version on a legacy 32-bit server in a test environment. However, the full release version of Exchange Server 2007 requires the power of a 64-bit architecture to realize its full potential. To meet this need, APA ordered a new HP ProLiant DL385 server equipped with 64-bit AMD Opteron processors.
