What’s new in Lync Server 2013: Persistent Chat

Editor's Notes

  • #5 Lync is design tocommunicatebetween 2 persons: I’mlookingfor person X, is he availableandcan I call him? Conferencing allowsyoutoorganize/schedule meetings betweenpeople. All these modalities are ad-hoc or plannedand the conversation is goneafter finishing.Lync Persistent Chat has a different approach: itallowsgroups of peopletoconnectaround a subject and these chat channels are alwaysavailable (persistent).
  • #6 Lync/UC is designedtobebuildaroundpeopleandallowthemtoconnectthroughvoice, video, chat or email.Persistent Chat is buildtobe the centralcommunicationchannelregarding a specific topic/subject/project. It also has ethicalboundaries, allowingorganizationsto limit the number of users that have access or are aware of a specific persistent chat.
  • #7 Since Lync is buildaroundpeople, the communication is set up throughtheir personal clients (Lync, Outlook). The conversationhistory (email, chats) is spread accrossallthose users mailboxes.Persistent chat stores content/communicationaround a specific subject in a centrallocation. This has multiple benefits:Bettermanageabilityregarding dataEasy tofind informationBeingabletoaddsomeoneduring the project. This user wouldbeableto review past communicationandbeaware of it’scurrent state
  • #8 Contact Centers: ifyou have a contact center accross the globe with 24/7 availability, persistent chat wouldcentralizecommunicationbetween engineers, organizedby topics.Agentsregarding subject can check availability regarding subject/topic bylooking in the channel.Support agentstaking over shiftswould have the possiblityto search through the conversationhistoryBanking: ethicalwalls are very, very important in banking environments. Persistent Chat allowsyoutocreatecommunicationchannelsandisolatethiscommunicationto a specificnumber of users, securing the communicationchannelwhileallowing the members tocommunicateeasily

  • #36 Slide Objective:  Notes:Deeply nested hierarchy of categories  Simplified single level of categoriesHard to understand scopes and effective rights  Simple definition of scopes comprising both allow lists and deny listsComplex inheritance of categories and room properties  Simplification of category and room properties and inheritance Persistent chat administration via a RBAC roleNo user administrators in, unified with LyncDiscussion Points:Does the new administration model and Allowed Members Allow/Deny access control lists (ACLs) allow you to model deny lists effectively?How many categories do you create today?How often do these categories change?
  • #39 Slide Objective:  Notes:Members, ChatRoomManagers,Presenters all must be in the Allowed Members on the categoryRoom creator must be in the Allowed Creators on the categoryNote: No inheritance – member list must be explicitly setFileUpload, ChatHistory – now managed on a CategoryInvitations are not sent for Open Rooms. Managers can change everything except the category.
