I’ll be speaking in Rotterdam in October

The second annual SOA Symposium will be held in Rotterdam (Netherlands) this year October 22nd and 23rd, you can get details here. I really enjoyed this event when I spoke at it in Amsterdam last year, and expect this second one to be both as informative as well as fun. Led by renowned author and industry guru Thomas Erl, there’s a stellar cast of speakers lined up that I’m honored to be part of.

This will be a pretty intense trip (as most are):

• I will be doing two presentations, one focused on BizTalk as an integration server and gateway to Azure, and another on building a modern ESB on the Microsoft stack with the Microsoft BizTalk ESB Toolkit.
• I am honored to be part of a working group that will be producing a SOA Manifesto similar to (and modeled after) the Agile Manifesto.
• I will also be speaking at the local BizTalk user group.

It’s been a long time since I was last in Rotterdam, I’m looking forward to this. If you’re there, I hope to see you at one of those events.
