Biztalk and EDI Implementation
by Shashi Raina, Practice Manager, Microsoft Technologies

Microsoft BizTalk Server entered the EDI workspace riding over Covast’s shoulder. Starting with the BizTalk 2006 version, Microsoft replaced Covast with built-in EDI support for BizTalk. EDI support became tightly integrated with BizTalk’s core engine. Since then, Electronic data interchange has become an important growing segment for Biztalk. I personally have overseen numerous BizTalk migrations from Sterling Integrator (formerly Gentran), and lately we are starting to see BOOMI migrations to BizTalk.

The State of the State of B2B Standards
by Samuel Presutti

When I was introduced to EDI (X12) standards back in 1990 I had been in the technology world as a technician for about 12 years. Back in those “stone” age days, the only solid technology platform we had available to use was the legacy mainframe. With that came application suites that were just starting to look at the ability to communicate with your external or internal trading partners via electronic documents or files. The world was using paper and proprietary file formats to execute their business models with their suppliers or clients. This was a costly and very human intensive mode of operating.

Your Supply Chain: Keep it Secret, Keep it Safe
Moving Towards Trusted Trade
by Bryan Larkin, Chief Supply Chain Strategist, Digital Management, Inc

You got up that morning, tore opened the plastic wrapping surrounding your newly issued uniform, carefully ironed out the new-uniform creases, put it on, still warm, paused for a few head-turns in front of the mirror, and headed off to work, proud of your new look. Mere hours later you, and your co-workers in their new uniforms, were covered in a body rash and gasping for breath, victims of the hazardous formaldehyde in your uniform.

Wayne’s World
Observations, Opinions and Musings from the Woods of Maine
by Wayne Marshall

First of all, let me say that Spring can’t come soon enough. I hope you all enjoy the longer days and warmer temps. Like all of you, we hope that 2011 brings renewed prosperity and a more active jobs market than we saw in 2010. Last year was a mixed bag, with good pockets of activity in certain sectors and increased opportunities with certain technologies.
