Microsoft hands BizTalk Server 2006 to manufacturers
InfoWorld | at | by Mike
Microsoft Monday released a new version of its BizTalk Server integration software to manufacturing.
BizTalk Server 2006, software for integrating business processes across the enterprise through XML, will be generally available to customers on May 1, said Steven Martin, a Microsoft director of product management.
One of the biggest differences between the new version and its former release BizTalk Server 2004 is the pricing and packaging.
Microsoft is including 14 technology adapters that connect BizTalk Server 2006 to back-end applications such as PeopleSoft and Oracle Application Suite, Martin said. As a result, the pricing for the enterprise edition of the product has increased from US$25,000 per CPU to $29,999, he said.
