It’s been a little while since we’ve got together with TechEd, APEC + the launch of
R2…but I’m pretty certain we’re all in a great space going forward J
The launch of BizTalk 2006 R2 was a pretty special event. – What’s
new in R2 (ms technet article) for more info.
Big thanks to those of you that came along, hope you got alot out of it (not to mention
a copy of Vista Ultimate).
What was the best part for you? For me personally was the fact that so much of the
BizTalk product team made the trip across and was there. There to talk to and listen.
Hope you had an opportunity to make the most of that.
What’s cooking this month for the group?
You may remember before the launch I had lined up a session on Designing and
Building a Reusable BizTalk Framework.
I also want to kick some tyres with you guys and hear how things are progressing along
your BizTalk (+ related) journey
Main Event on the night:
– Designing and Building a reusable BizTalk Framework(in R2)
BizTalk 2006 R2 is almost upon us, so this month we’re going to cover a couple
of important areas:
1. Designing and develop a reusable BizTalk Framework. This approach will allow
you to leverage previous investments within your company’s BizTalk implementations.
There are huge benefits in being able to re-apply existing BizTalk applications that
have been tested and are known quantities within your solution. The solution we will
examine together will leverage EDI/AS2 document processing as well as XML Messaging
solutions involving various Messaging Patterns (e.g. Request/Response).
This solution is based on a ’Process Manager’ Pattern and it’s something I’ve
refined over the last 2 years of experience on the coal face.
Meeting details:
When: Oct 31, Food at 6pm, kick off 6.30pm. Finish up around 8pm.
Where: Microsoft
1 Epping Road
Riverside Corporate Park
North Ryde NSW 2113 Australia. (parking available)
Speaker: Mick Badran (your trusty User Group Host)

Reusable
Framework Focus Details:
Come
and see how to ’dynamically’ wire your BizTalk Solutions based on message content,
rules or specific environmental properties. Being able to accept a wide array of message
types is another key element in making these solutions successful.
What’s happening in the BizTalk

the Brisbane BizTalk user group is always full of new ideas – Dan up there is always
doing a great job.

the Melbourne BizTalk user group run by Bill Chesnut (fellow BizTalk MVP) is always
doing great things down there.
If you’re in their areas you’re always welcome to pop along.
Share the User Group Soap Box:
I
always welcome a new voice and ideas at our group –
if you want to share your experiences, thoughts, “I wish I can do….. for my solution…”.
Then contact me and I’ll be more than happy to slot you in.
Q.
Do you need to have presentation skills: No
(just look at me) – can you tell a story in the office or at the pub? Or at a 3 yr
old b.day party? – then I want you.
Q.
Do I need a PowerPoint Slide Deck? – no!!!
*death
by powerpoint*
is a painful way to go……

take you whichever way you are. J
We’re

this session may reduce you to tears J)
See
you there and let me know your coming
