Announcing free training on the ESB Guidance (Canada only)

The concept of Service Oriented Architecture and the Enterprise Service Bus is huge topic for many organizations now days.  To address this, our patterns and practices team have recently released the Enterprise Service Bus Guidance which organizations can use to implement an practical and effective ESB solution using our .NET technologies. 

In order to accelerate your understanding of this guidance, the Canadian BizTalk team is excited to announce that we will be running a one day deep dive training course focused entirely on the ESB Guidance.  We have created this training course to radically accelerate your understanding and adoption of it. The course will be held on April 16th at the Microsoft Canada Head Office in Mississauga (Full details are on the registration page).  This is significant event as there will be no cost to attend and attendees will get some real deep hands on experience with the solution.  This is the first public offering of a course that we recently delivered internally to our MCS community which received very positive reviews.  The course includes architectural discussions on the ESB concept, deep dive views into its internals as well as proctored hands-on labs.

This course will be focused towards the deeper technical components within the ESB, so this is best suited for architects, developers and other technical roles.

The agenda for the course is a follows:

1) The ESB as an architecture concept. What is it? What should it do? Why would I need it?

2) Getting Started – Installing and configuring the ESBG

3) The Core ESBG Engine: What are the core components and how do I use them?

4) ESBG External Services: How are these different from the Core Engine?

5) The ESB Exception Management Framework and Administration Portal

6) Introduction to Microsoft's ESB & SOA Governance Partners

7) Bits and Bites: Miscellaneous Topics
