RockNUG tonight - Geoff Snowman showed off BizTalk Server
![RockNUG [Rockville .NET User Group]](http://www.rocknug.org/Portals/3/RockNUG-logo-fnl.gif)
I attended my first event at the new Rockville .NET User Group (RockNUG) in Maryland tonight. Geoff Snowman, our local Microsoft integration specialist showed off the latest BizTalk Server (BTS) technology and talked about the future of BTS and its related products. As Geoff pointed out, BTS is a niche product that works well for large customers that have unique or complex integration requirements. The power of BTS was clearly in its mapping/transformation abilities, flexibility in talking to various endpoints (on various platforms) and the scalability of dynamically handling large amounts of orchestrations. My take was that it was especially well suited to integrate different applications especially when they are on different platforms and speak different languages (text vs XML vs EDI etc.). If you are interested in BTS and more on integration, don't miss Geoff's MICSUG group which has upcoming presentations on WWF and ESB. -

Presentations at WinProTeam - ADO.NET interfaces, Gentle.NET, LINQ, Refactoring
Unfortunately my co-presenters were not able to make the WinProTeam presentation due to unforeseen circumstances so I went it alone. This meant that the topics had to change a little but the audience seemed agreeable. The schedule for the evening changed to:
