BizTalk Monitoring Products
Is it me or does there seem to be a lot of BizTalk Monitoring products appearing recently.
In addition to the normal MOM/SCOM, HP Openview and other enterprise monitoring platforms there seem to be a few new(ish) ones around such as:
– Minotaur=http://www.ragingbulltech.com/
– Frends Hellium = http://helium.frends.com/helium/home/
– BizMon = http://bizmontool.com/
JustWhats peoples view on why these other products seem to have found a gap
Obviously if they are successful in selling their product then there is a weakness in the BizTalk offering around monitoring. Maybe the cost of SCOM or HP OVO is too high and these are much cheaper alternatives. Although I would have thought most larger companies would already have a monitoring and operations asset.
Maybe the BizTalk addin for SCOM and Openview, etc just isnt good enough or is too difficult to use?
Maybe these products aimed more at the BizTalk Operator rather than the BizTalk administrator.

Richard’s Interview with me is Live
I participated in Richard Seroter’s “Four Questions” interview series, and his post is live now. He asked some great questions, and I put in so much effort into them that some of my answers could be blog posts here, so I thought I’d do a referencing post.
The interview is at Interview Series- Four Questions With Brian Loesgen
And, in case you’re wondering, although I do tend to eat salsa often, I am now, not nor have I ever been a Salsa dancer 🙂
Enjoy!

StreamInsight CTP3 at the Central Penn .NET Code Camp
I’ll be speaking on Microsoft StreamInsight CTP3 at the Central Pennsylvania .NET User’s Group Code Camp (that’s a mouthful) this Saturday, December 5, 2009.
There have been some exciting changes to StreamInsight since the CTP2 release as Charles Young points out in this post, and I’ll be covering those as well as providing a general overview of StreamInsight and what it may do for your application environment.
As mentioning the word “cloud” seems to garner attention and drive attendance, I should mention that we will be discussing Event Clouds and Event Streams. Ooooooh.
Look for a webcast of the presentation on this site within the next few weeks.
Hope to see you there.
