Confused by all the Microsoft technology that claims to solve your Integration problems? Then check out our Understanding Microsoft Integration Technologies whitepaper. In it, we differentiate various classes of integration scenarios and provide guidance on selecting an appropriate technology.

If you want to see some quick demos of each of these technologies then have a look at Scott Woodgate's webcast Microsoft Integration Technologies: When To Use What.

We're in the process of getting our new Understanding BizTalk Server 2006 whitepaper published on microsoft.com but you can get it now from here.
