Change suiteBar navigation items

Question

SharePoint Online and SharePoint 2013 On-premise has on top by default blue track with some links (Outlook, People, SkyDrive, Sites). In HTML it is shown as id="suiteBar" .Is it possible to customize this menu / navigation on SharePoint 2013 on-premise ? If so, how and where, I want to add some fix links and remove some them.

For example, my on-premise does not contain info from Exchange (Mail, People etc.), how to add them, is it IT stuff or development with JavaScript ?

It seems that here is nice blog about this which explains everything - http://academy.bindtuning.com/customize-sharepoint-2013-and-office-365-suite-bar/

Answer 2

The Suite Links are customizable with a SharePoint Delegate Control. I wrote a post a while back on how to create a delegate control that replaces the default links with a control that keeps the existing ones while adding your own: http://www.sharepointjohn.com/sharepoint-2013-adding-links-suite-bar-newsfeed-skydrive-sites-overriding-suitelinksdelegate-delegate-control/
