BizTalk Scheduled Task Adapter for BizTalk Server 2013 R2 has been updated

BizTalk Scheduled Task Adapter for BizTalk Server 2013 R2 has been updated

Almost one month after I have released, BizTalk Scheduled Task Adapter suffered its first update in order to fix one important bug.

BizTalk Health Monitor version 3 is available !

BizTalk Health Monitor version 3 is available !

I'm excited to announce the release of BizTalk Health Monitor (aka BHM) v3 !

The BHM team collected a lot of feedback from BHM users to enrich the tool with new features while at the same time making it more reliable to provide a better experience.
Version 3 brings many great new features and one major one:  the integration of the famous Terminator application making BHM a complete BizTalk maintenance solution – checking the health of any BizTalk platform and providing remediation capabilities.  The entire remediation power of Terminator is now included in BHM!

The BizTalk Health Monitor MMC snap-in shares the same analysis and repository engine as MBV application and has been available since June 2014 with the release of BizTalk Server 2013 R2.  Since then, it has been continuously updated with new features to provide more flexibility and power to BizTalk administrators in their monitoring and maintenance tasks.
As mentioned in my previous post, there will be no further public updates of MBV, as BHM is now the recommended free solution for a BizTalk group health check.

Upcoming Presentation: BizTalk Boot Camp

Upcoming Presentation: BizTalk Boot Camp

 

BizTalk Boot Camp 2015 – Microsoft Campus, Charlotte North Carolina

In addition to me speaking at the BizTalk Summit in London,  I will also be speaking about Azure API Management at the BizTalk Boot camp at the Microsoft campus in Charlotte on April 29th/30th.

I had the opportunity to speak at this event two years ago and was happy to come back.  The event is being organized by Mandi Ohlinger who works for Microsoft and is responsible for a lot of the technical content that you find on Azure BizTalk Services and BizTalk Server.

This is a free event and registration is required.

My topic will be an introduction to Azure API Management and how you can leverage this new Azure capability with your existing BizTalk Services.
