I would like to know if Lync 2010 or 2013 store the user's presence history (like the user was available at a particular time and was away at particular time") in the client application or at the backend server(logs).??

Thanks.

It looks like it might be possible, but you would have to essentially add your own database trigger to record the historical data. There are also tools that may make it a bit easier as mentioned here: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/lync/en-US/8212257e-03ba-4791-8eb9-14c7685b452f/how-to-get-user-presence-data-from-the-lync-2010-sql-server-dbs?forum=ocspresenceim
