BizTalk Server Fundamentals
On-Demand! version of this course
|
Despite the trend towards service-oriented architectures, most organizations don’t have the luxury of moving all of their investments in that direction at once. The fact is most will have to deal with legacy applications for some time to come. And to complicate matters further, typical business processes transcend multiple heterogeneous applications making them difficult to automate. BizTalk Server (BTS) 2006 was specifically designed to bridge such integration gaps and simplify business process automation. By combining the connectivity provided by its messaging engine with the productivity provided by its orchestration engine, BizTalk Server 2006 can help you tackle tough business process scenarios in your connected systems today.
|
Who Should Attend
Developers interested in learning about BTS 2006, and how it can be used to solve integration and business process automation challenges throughout traditional enterprise systems. Experience programming in C# using Visual Studio .NET and working knowledge of XML and Web services terminology is required. Experience with prior BizTalk versions is not required.
