ENT News | at | by Mike

Microsoft quietly announced this week that it has released Beta 2 of BizTalk Server 2006 for download and the product remains on schedule.

The first beta test release went out in early August, and company officials said earlier this month that the final code release is still set for the first half of 2006.

BizTalk Server 2006 features a simplified installation wizard and a new management console designed to give administrators the ability to package applications into .msi files using Microsoft?s Windows Installer. It also adds business activity monitoring enhancements that support real-time business activity subscriptions and alerts.
