Dale Michalk on BizTalk 2004 for Developers

On Monday, June 6th, Dale Michalk will be in Oklahoma City presenting on BizTalk server 2004.

BizTalk Server 2004 is a server product from Microsoft that helps customers integrate systems, employees, and partners through business processes that are orchestrated in a flexible and adaptable manner.   In this talk we will cover the significant enhancements to the latest version of the product:  tight integration with VS.NET 2003 for development tasks, web service support to access existing web services as well as expose business processes as web services, an integrated rules engine to encode complex business logic declaratively, Business Activity Monitoring facilities to allow end users to use Office to monitor their business processes, and InfoPath support for building UI forms to easily work with the XML data that BizTalk Server 2004 manages.

Dale Michalk is a Developer Evangelist for Microsoft.  His team covers large enterprise accounts in the Retail, Financial Services, Healthcare, and State and Local Government industries.  Before joining MS, he worked for startups and as a contractor for several of large companies.  His writings include co-authoring a book on a deep ASP.NET topic, Building ASP.NET Server Controls, published by Apress.  He was a Captain in the US Army and graduated from West Point.
