MoneyWeek is the UK’s best selling financial magazine. Published every Friday, it is a weekly investment magazine that covers financial and economic news and provides commentary and analysis across UK and global markets. It is the best, most powerful read for anyone interested in defending and growing their wealth in Britain today.

Around 100 staff are employed at the MoneyWeek Head Office in London, where the magazine is produced and edited.

Following a number of technical planning and scoping sessions with the System Professional project team, a revised design and project plan was agreed for the Exchange 2010 upgrade. This involved an initial server virtualisation of the existing MoneyWeek infrastructure using VMware vSphere and the introduction of two Open-E 4TB SANs.

The MS Exchange migration involved the creation of a new Exchange 2010 group in the virtual environment, with two Exchange mailbox servers and two combined hub transport/client access servers. Following the new infrastructure deployment the Exchange migration was performed successfully.

Alan Smith, Systems Manager at MoneyWeek, explained how “With the upgrade to Exchange Server 2010, System Professional has helped MoneyWeek to consolidate our messaging infrastructure into a highly available and scalable environment. The new platform provides better support to our business users and has significantly reduced IT costs, from both a user support and hardware management perspective.”
