Why attend?

This is the most in-depth presentation on Microsoft’s BizTalk Server 2006, MOSS 2007 and SOA available in the UK. A recent delegate said;
“Thanks for a really great day last week at Microsoft... the best technical and functional presentations around BizTalk and MOSS I have seen to date...”

Seminar overview

In today's ever evolving business landscape successful organisations are those optimising the use of technology to create business agility and efficiency. This can be achieved by focusing IT to produce a unified, consolidated, flexible and reusable set of services in a Service Orientated Architecture (SOA) that will embody an organisation's capability.

This briefing will illustrate how Business Process Management (BPM) coupled with an effective SOA and the use of Microsoft's BizTalk Server 2006 and MOSS 2007 can enable a highly efficient, innovative, agile and adaptive organisation.

Not only will we discuss the technologies but we will also provide real customer examples, insights and direction on how the business can understand why and what investment is needed to achieve this goal.
