I have joined Mexia Consulting (www.mexia.com.au) as a Principal Consultant, Mexia is a Brisbane based Microsoft Partner, but I will remain based in Melbourne (and the Qantas lounge, been traveling that much lately) while I establish and grow the Mexia’s team in Victoria
Recently I have been a bit split focused between BizTalk and SQL Server with SolidQ so I have decided with the urging of Dean Robertson, CEO of Mexia to come back to my true love, Integration with a primary focus on the full Microsoft integration stack: BizTalk, Windows Server AppFabric, Windows Azure, SQL Server Integration Services, WCF and .Net.
With the addition of myself to Mexia we will also now be offering BizTalk Developer and Administration training with the forthcoming release of the new Microsoft BizTalk 2010 training material.
Mexia also offer specialised consultancy, solution delivery and operational health checks services to clients using the Microsoft integration stack (e.g. BizTalk), so if you are interested in discussing your integration need please contact me either via my contact page or at bill @ mexia com au
So after 5 great years being a technology specialist for connected systems, I’ve decided to take on a new challenge at Microsoft Canada.
