An Ode to EOP

This is typically a slow week for people, so what better time than to post something fun about Exchange Online Protection!

Back in May I presented a session on EOP at TechEd North America 2014 which took place in Houston. To be a little different, I wrote a poem about EOP which I read to kick the presentation off. I have always enjoyed poetry and thought I'd try something different by beginning my EOP session with some rhymes. Here's that poem.

Hello to you my TechEd friends,
Thank you for joining me here.
Today we will learn of a wondrous service,
And you'll see, there's nothing to fear.

Email can sometimes come with spam,
And if you're not careful, a computer infection.
Lucky for you, we can prevent those two,
With Exchange Online Protection.

EOP is a breeze to deploy,
There's really nothing to it.
Listen closely and don't leave early,
You'll soon learn how to do it.

Add one domain or up to nine hundred,
Then create a connector or two.
Now point your MX over to us,
And like that, we're protecting you.

Now let's begin this break out session,
Silence those phones in your pocket.
And next time you log in to O365,
You'll really be able to rock it.

If you are interested in watching the session, which covers configuration and some interesting tidbits about EOP, it can be viewed on Channel 9.

See you in the new year!
