As we approach the general availability date for Skype for Business, there is definitely an increase in the rate of technical content publication.  One resource that was priceless for understanding the traffic flows in Lync Server was the workload poster!

If you like your diagrams, you will be happy to hear that Microsoft have now released the Skype for Business Server 2015 Workload Poster.

Including within the PDF or Visio downloads are the following workloads:

• Instant Messaging and Presence (including high level sign in process)
• AV Conferencing (which now includes the Video Interoperability workload)
• Application Sharing
• Enterprise Voice
• Certificate Requirements
• Central Management Store Overview and Replication Traffic Flows

Silk is also now referenced where applicable in audio media flows!
