Speaking on BizTalk ESB Guidance at MOCSDUG

I'm going to give the June presentation to the Mid-Ohio Connected Systems Developers User Group (MOCSDUG) on "Introduction to the Microsoft ESB Guidance for BizTalk Server 2006 R2". The talk will be on Thursday, June 5, 2008 at 6:00 PM. You can see it in person or over the web via LiveMeeting.

The ESB Guidance gives you free, prebuilt components and services, complete with source code, that allow you to turn BizTalk into a true Enterprise Service Bus.

Here's some of what the ESB Guidance can do:

• Discover and configure message endpoints at runtime
• Discover and perform message transformations at runtime
• Select which combination of services to execute, in what sequence, at runtime
• Handle exceptions consistently from anywhere inside or outside BizTalk

Many of the cool things we're expecting in Oslo are available in the ESB Guidance right now. So come check it out!
