If you consider yourself a hard core BizTalk Developer, then this session is for you!
A few weeks ago I presented a session on Server AppFabric to the BizTalk User Group in Sweden. This session was geared to showing how similar Workflow 4.0 and AppFabric are to BizTalk – conceptually at least. The goal of this session was to show how us BizTalk guys and gals can quickly pick up Workflow 4 and AppFabric because we already understand the concepts.
I would highly recommend this 60 minute session to all fellow BizTalkers out there!
This session is available on Channel 9 – http://channel9.msdn.com/Blogs/MSCOMSWE/Tech-Overview-WCFWF-Server-AppFabric-BizTalk-Conference-Stockholm
The code and slides are available for download at https://www.stephenwthomas.com/media/p/29973.aspx.
At the same conference, I gave a session which covered Windows Azure Platform AppFabric. This 30 minute session covers a real-world service bus solution and a walk through of the code behind the solution. It is available at http://channel9.msdn.com/Blogs/MSCOMSWE/Pattern-5–Remote-Message-Broadcast-BizTalk-Conference-Stockholm and the code and slides can be downloaded at https://www.stephenwthomas.com/media/p/29975.aspx.
If you are looking for other sessions from the multi-day conference in Sweden, below is a full list. We covered a wide-range of technologies from AppFabric to StreamInsight.
