Building BizTalk Server 2006 Solutions Best Practices

Application integration is all about messages - how messages are received, how messages are processed, and how messages are routed between a company’s internal applications and their partners. BizTalk provides a scalable, robust and flexible framework for implementing many common messaging patterns. Taught by a nationally renowned Microsoft MVP for BizTalk, this 5-day, hands on course will provide students with all the tools necessary to determine and implement the most appropriate messaging patterns for their organization's workflows. It covers the basics of BizTalk, as well as more advanced concepts such as developing custom Adapters and Pipeline Components, and advanced orchestration.

“Having 3 years of BizTalk consulting experience, I still extracted significant value from Matt’s class. The course was full of his professional insights.”

“The instructor did not only give an introduction of BizTalk features, but he actually went one step further by telling us his experience.”

"It was very refreshing to have someone as knowledgeable as Matt training. He provided great information on his experiences and the labs he developed allowed us to really work with Biztalk as opposed to following the steps in a book."
