www.intermedia.net kind of pricey but stable and easy to manage/setup. Im
sure there are others.

 

For that size why not just partner up with an MSP who can put your own
server in a datacenter and host it/manage it for a flat fee. You could
probably have several of those in your area.

Has anyone run Exchange in a Cloud?

 

Amazon seemingly doesn't support it, unless it's Exchange 2003, which I'm
not willing to stay on (our current ASP is still on 2003).

Thread: How to Set-up Exchange Server (2003 or 2007) on EC2 ???

Although we can apparently run our own images and so I think we could just
create a Server 2008 image.  Booting a Server 2008 image with the Amazon
cloud may apparently be a little difficult (The boot volume isn't
persistent).  One person installed 2003 and upgraded to 2008, but you have
to do some tricks with the 10G boot partition they give you.  Before I spend
a lot of time fiddling with it, I thought I'd check to see if anyone else is
doing it.

 

Our project goals:

1)      No hardware to maintain.

2)      Exchange 2007 or vNext 

3)      Support for mailboxes averaging about 1.3G, with the largest mailbox
being 10G

4)      250 users

5)      30 Blackberry users

6)      Windows Mobile/iPhone support

7)      Integrated Domain with current domain (something our ASP doesn't do
of course)

8)      Some redundancy / must be stable
