Acknowledgements From Dave Cristal, you are my rock and my source of inspiration. For the past 20 + years you have been there with me every step of the way. Not only are you the “BEST Wife” in the world you are my partner in crime. Christian, Trinity, Keira, Serena, Mickaila and Mackenzie, you kids are so patient with your dear old dad when he locks himself away in the office for yet another book. Taking the time to watch you grow in life, sports, and become little leaders of this new world is incredible to watch. Thank you, Mom and Dad (Frank and Audry) and my brother Joe. You got me started in this crazy IT world when I was so young. Brother, you mentored me along the way both coaching me in hockey and helping me learn what you knew about PC’s and Servers. I’ll never forget us as teenage kids working the IT Support contract for the local municipal government. Remember dad had to drive us to site because you weren’t old enough to drive ourselves yet. A great career starts with the support of your family and I’m so lucky because I have all the support one could ever want. A book like this filled with amazing Canadian MVP’s would not be possible without the support from the #1 Microsoft Community Program Manager – Simran Chaudry. You have guided us along the path and helped us to get better at what we do every day. Your job is tireless and your passion and commitment make us want to do what we do even more. Last but not least, the MVPDays volunteers, you have donated your time and expertise and helped us run the event in over 20 cities across North America. Our latest journey has us expanding the conference worldwide as a virtual conference. For those of you that will read this book your potential is limitless just expand your horizons and you never know where life will take you.

Introduction North American MVPDays Community Roadshow

Introduction

North American MVPDays Community Roadshow The purpose of this book is to showcase the amazing expertise of our guest speakers at the North American MVPDays Community Roadshow. They have so much passion, expertise, and expert knowledge that it only seemed fitting to write it down in a book.

MVPDays was founded by Cristal and Dave Kawula back in 2013. It started as a simple idea; “There’s got to be a good way for Microsoft MVPs to reach the IT community and share their vast knowledge and experience in a fun and engaging way” I mean, what is the point in recognizing these bright and inspiring individuals, and not leveraging them to inspire the community that they are a part of. We often get asked the question “Who should attend MVPDays”? Anyone that has an interest in technology, is eager to learn, and wants to meet other likeminded individuals. This Roadshow is not just for Microsoft MVP’s it is for anyone in the IT Community. Make sure you check out the MVPDays website at: www.mvpdays.com. You never know maybe the roadshow will be coming to a city near you.

The goal of this particular book is to show you how to Migrate your legacy Exchange 2010 environment to Exchange 2016. We built based on our experience migrating live customer environments.
