Aditi sharpens focus around Microsoft’s new unified communications platform

In keeping with its strategy of building strong practices around emerging technologies, Aditi has strengthened its practice on Microsoft’s new Office Communications Server platform.

Bangalore, 20th September 2007 - Aditi Technologies announced today that AditiCollabTM, Aditi’s Collaboration Consulting Service, is enhancing its practice to focus on Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007 (OCS 2007), the new version of Live Communications Server (LCS 2005), as the reference platform for building collaboration and communication solutions. Through instant messaging, presence awareness, federated communications, and remote call control, OCS 2007 delivers streamlined communication to users, a software-powered VoIP foundation for organizations, and operational control for IT. Although only the trial version of OCS 2007 is presently available, Aditi is already involved in developing solutions using it.

Pradeep Rathinam, President, says, “Aditi is an active service partner of early adopters of new technology. We see unified communications using OCS 2007 as the next wave in collaboration efforts that benefits companies and enterprises, and as a solutions partner, we will help clients leverage our expertise in this technology to enable quick adoption and rapid return on their technology investments.”

Aditi has been an early practitioner and adopter of LCS, exploiting LCS as a development platform from the time Microsoft released its first LCS version, LCS 2003. Aditi architects are currently working with organizations on business benefit assessments and implementation architecture. Says Vineet Kumar Arora, Director of Technology, “Aditi is excited about how LCS and its new features will revolutionize the way organizations work especially around unified communication with VoIP, federation enhancements, and conferencing.”

This initiative builds on Aditi’s focus in helping customers exploit the leading-edge of emerging Microsoft technologies. From Vista to MOSS 07, Aditi has dedicated technology practices that provide technology consulting and product development using these platforms. Aditi offers next generation Microsoft solutions to customers that include Independent Software Vendors (ISVs) and Financial Services firms.

A Gold-certified, NXT, and Launch partner to Microsoft, Aditi is also a development partner with various Microsoft products teams developing features, modules, and sometimes entire products. Besides technology collaboration, Aditi engages in joint programs to expand early adopter markets. Microsoft Technology Centers (MTC) are a part of this program, where Aditi operates as a MTC partner providing architecture guidance and technology consulting in Vista, Longhorn, SQL, MOSS 07, OBA, Workflow, and Dynamics. Additionally, Aditi and Microsoft co-host webinars, CTO events, and other ‘Go-to-market’ strategies.
