Well, the Empowering Hybrid Integration segment has been online since January 30, 2017, but only now I realize that… During the MVP Global Summit, and taking the opportunity to have most of the Integration MVPs gathered at the event, the Microsoft Pro Integration team tends to invite the MVPs to create short 8- to 10-minute videos about Integration (on-premises or in the cloud). It happened in previous editions of the Summit and in the last edition, in which they invited us to talk about Hybrid Integration, including BizTalk Server, Azure Logic Apps, Azure API Management, and Azure Service Bus.
📝 One-Minute Brief
This post announces that the Empowering Hybrid Integration video session is now available on Channel 9, showcasing how to build hybrid integration solutions using BizTalk Server, Azure Logic Apps, Azure Service Bus, API Management, SQL Server, and File-based integration.
For several reasons, I never had the chance to accept the challenge in the past, but last year I was able to accept the invitation to speak and record at the “famous” Microsoft Building 20, a building that is the home of the Channel 9 studio …


… and make a short talk about Hybrid Integration using Service Bus Queues, BizTalk Server, Dynamic CRM, SQL Server, Logic Apps, and File.

Has I told in a previous post of my blog, that was my first experience, and I have to confess, I was a little nervous to be recording in a small professional studio, so as expected after seeing the record in its raw state, the end result could have been better, but, fortunately for you guys I was able to edit the video and remove some breaks/delays between switching from my presentation slides to my screen. Nevertheless, for a first experience, it went pretty well, and I am happy with the result. What’s important to me is to face new challenges, different situations, leave my comfort zone, and improve to be better next time.
The result is this 8-minute video on Empowering Hybrid Integration, where you can learn how you can create powerful hybrid integration solutions using existing on-premises and cloud-based solutions.
Fortunately, I had the company of my good friend Kent Weare in this small “adventure”:


You can also watch his session about Protecting Azure Logic Apps using Azure API Management. In this video, you can learn how to use Azure API Management to protect your Logic Apps.
You can watch more sessions regarding Microsoft’s Hybrid Integration Platform on Channel 9.
