•A unified global address list, also called a “shared address book”
•Free/busy and calendar sharing between on-premises and cloud-based organizations
•Centralized control of mail flow.

A full Exchange 2010 organization isn’t required to enable a hybrid deployment. You can install a minimal Exchange 2010 hybrid server in an existing Exchange 2003 or Exchange 2007 organization.
•Long-term goal is to move all mailboxes to the cloud, you must evaluate your current on-premises e-mail infrastructure and select the migration tool and method that works best for your organization.There are several methods to migrate all mailboxes to Office 365 for enterprises. Each method has advantages and disadvantages for administrators and users, and each method has specific requirements and dependencies.
Deploy it.
