10:45: Adapter Pack Integration Capabilities (BizTalk)
by Steef-Jan Wiggers [MVP BizTalk Server];
The latest adapter pack that Microsoft includes with BizTalk contains WCF-based adapters (i.e. bindings) for Line-Of-Business systems (SAP, Siebel, Oracle eBusiness Suite), SQL and Oracle databases.
These adapters can be used within the BizTalk Runtime, separately in .NET projects, Windows Azure and with the latest additions of the Service Bus (Windows Azure Service Bus EDI/EAI CTP). In this talk, the different aspects of using this adapter pack will be discussed combined with samples to demonstrate its versatile integration capabilities.
12:00: Lunch;
13:00: Introduction to the Azure Service Bus EAI/EDI features.
by Sandro Pereira [MVP BizTalk Server]
Historically, both EAI and EDI has been performed through BizTalk. With this preview, we will give an early glimpse into how Microsoft envisions these types of integration scenarios being addressed in a Platform as a Service (PaaS) based environment.
In this session we’ll see EAI (Enterprise Application Integration) and EDI (Electronic Data Interchange) functionalities like how to manage EDI message exchanges and trading partners with the Azure EDI Portal; how to support Flat files; edit Schemas and transformation maps
13:45: Break;
14:00: Throttling/& Thresholds.
by Tord Glad Nordahl
There is a lot of different information about how thresholds and automatic throttling affects BizTalk. How does it really work and what does the different setting really mean. This presentation will talk about the different host settings and the different throttling states, what it means and how this can help your environment. The session includes pointers on how to resolve throttling states, how to tune up and down your applications to increase or decrease processing of messages.
14:45: Break;

by Saravana Kumar [MVP BizTalk Server]
BizTalk360 addresses some of the common problems organizations face today while managing a BizTalk infrastructure for day-to-day operations. In this session, we’ll cover some of the key capabilities of BizTalk360 (as listed below) and see how Microsoft BizTalk Server customers can take advantage of the investments we have made in BizTalk360.
