Boas novas: um renovado Business Process and Integration Developer Center, em grande parte dedicado ao Biztalk 2004; a 3a edição do Architect’s Journal, de onde destaco os artigos sobre “Identity and Access Management” e “Messaging Patterns in Service Oriented Architecture”; e o guia “Scalability and High Availability in BizTalk Server 2004″:
“The architectural components of BizTalk Server 2004 that facilitate scalability and high-availability are based on robust methodologies and mechanisms embedded and integrated within BizTalk Server, SQL Server and Windows Server 2003. This multi-faceted scalability and high-availability architecture provides numerous options for designing OSS/BSS integration applications that can be expanded to meet any performance and growth contingencies on an incremental or exponential basis without any operational disruption.”
Soube-se recentemente que o WinFS não vai estar presente na primeira versão do Longhorn, permanecendo no entando o Avalon e o Indigo. Pessoalmente, lamento esta exclusão, apesar de a compreender.
