      Can anyone explain why the number of training courses and books has dropped since Biztalk 2002? There appears to be nothing available for 2004?

      That is an excellent question.

      While I do not have any direct answers, I do have some comments.

      I think the market place for Biztalk related items is relatively small, thus you see a very small amount of resources available. For 2000 / 2002, a lot of the books ended up at the $5 books store. I’m not a publisher, but I’m guessing that is not a good thing.

      Right now, the only book is the Biztalk 2004 Unleashed book. But, several places offer custom training classes and http://www.biztalk-training.com offers CD for sale.

      On the plus side for 2004, Microsoft has put in a lot of effort to get free training and resources into your hands.

      Some of the best is the MSDN Virtual Labs. In 2006, we will have a much improved SDK with full running Biztalk applications. I think that will help as well.

      Plus, the Biztalk community is strong with a ton of great blogs and additional free resources available (like biztalkgurus.com :)).

      Hope this helps.

        The title says lack of biztalk 2004 books and there is nothing more for people to learn what it was all about. Like this maybe you would be able to figure out stuff today. Indeed dissertation services are for everyone. It can lead people towards many things for good reasons.
