That Alan Smith is always up to something. He’s just created a new online community for hosting webcasts about Microsoft technologies (Cloud TV). It’s mainly an excuse for him to demonstrate his mastery of Azure. Show off. Anyway, I recently produced a webcast on the ESB Toolkit 2.0 for Mick Badran Productions, and we’ve uploaded that to Alan’s site.
It’s about 20 minutes or so, and it covers why the need for the Toolkit arose, what the core services are, and some demonstrations of the core pieces (including the Management Portal). It was fun to put together, and I did my best to keep it free of gratuitous swearing and vaguely suggestive comments.
While you’re on Alan’s site, definitely check out a few more of the webcasts. I’ll personally be watching a number of them including Kent’s session about the SAP adapter, Thiago’s session on the SQL adapter, plus other ones on Oslo, M and Dublin.
