Conclusion

This document is developed by storage solution providers, and reviewed by Microsoft Exchange

Product team. The test results/data presented in this document is based on the tests introduced in

the ESRP test framework. Customer should not quote the data directly for his/her pre-deployment

verification. It is still necessary to go through the exercises to validate the storage design for a specific

customer environment.

ESRP program is not designed to be a benchmarking program; tests are not designed to getting the

maximum throughput for a giving solution. Rather, it is focused on producing recommendations from

vendors for Exchange application. So the data presented in this document should not be used for

direct comparisons among the solutions.
