The Microsoft Partner Solutions Center (MPSC)


The Microsoft Partner Solutions Center (MPSC) is a place where customer needs meet innovation design. At the core of the MPSC Dynamic IT Datacenter is Microsoft’s virtualization technology for server consolidation which was recently migrated from a footprint of 700 physical servers to 12 physical Sun servers and reduced the MPSC physical support locations from 12 locations to 1. The MPSC is designed to handle remote and/or onsite engagements in a lab environment using Microsoft products. We offer an IT engagement lab that exists to support the field sales efforts of both Microsoft and our member partners by designing and demonstrating real customer solutions. We also specialize in world-wide applications and services offered either to or through the Microsoft Communications Sector.
The Microsoft Partner Solutions Center (MPSC)

We are located on the Microsoft Redmond campus in Bldg 25 where our facilities and services are designed to engage the end-customer through executive briefing, technology demonstration, architectural design session, proof-of-concept, pilot, or training all of which can be customized for each specific opportunity.

In summary, our partners collectively offer you on-site HVAC, server hardware, KVM, SAN storage, backup, communications, networking, software, Communications Sector-specific applications and much more. We have a complete “Virtualized Application Playground” environment with available lab space where you, your system integrator, and Microsoft consulting can either demonstrate established systems and solutions running or architect your own. Join us for a month or an extended period. Our collective resources, architectural skills and datacenter expertise are yours.
