Microsoft BizTalk Server helps you connect systems inside and across organizations
Sunday, October 5th, 2008
Imagine you have a customer portal that needs to pull data from Siebel, SAP, and a mainframe. Those systems do not naturally “talk” to each other, but BizTalk Server can connect those systems and automate the associated business process.
Imagine you need to track products or even patient records using radio frequency identification (RFID). BizTalk Server connects the data from the tag readers to the people or systems that need to make business decisions with that information.
BizTalk Server 2006 R2 builds upon the Business Process Management and SOA/ESB capabilities in prior releases to help organizations extend core process management technologies even further with new capabilities like native support for Electronic Data Interchange (EDI), AS2 and RFID, and close alignment with the 2007 Microsoft Office system and Windows Vista, including key .NET Framework technologies such as Windows Workflow Foundation and Windows Communication Foundation.
With the introduction of BizTalk Server in 2000, Microsoft sparked a revolution in the integration industry proving that integration and process automation technology didn’t have to be prohibitively expensive or hard to use. Now in its fifth full version, BizTalk Server 2006 R2 puts real-time, end-to-end supply chain management within reach of every customer, spanning systems, people, and processes, both within and across organizational boundaries. BizTalk Server 2006 R2 empowers customers to make informed business decisions with real-time data from geographically dispersed, yet integrated systems, putting you one step ahead of the competition. All this coupled with the confidence of an enterprise-class infrastructure, regardless of your company size. Your business, connected.
