Great book for understanding 2006 R2 (EDI Processing) August 18, 2008
Tom Shwayer (Boston, M.A U.S.A)
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

For understanding EDI processing in 2006 R2 this is a great material. It has all forms for processing like EDI, AS2 etc. The Book gives a brief description about all these Architectures and then comes the good part, the samples created and Tested which you can test at your machine.

The samples are so easy to deploy with minimum pre-requisites and test them thoroughly along with a book to understand what we have done. We can download the samples from a web page directed in the Book.

Even if you are newly introduced to EDI processing through Biztalk, there is no worry. All you need is a little hands on how Biztalk translates the EDI data. From there the book has all the techniques involved in resolving the data, retrieving and mapping the information and Orchestrate the message for processing as you wish.

The Book also briefs about the deployment and production support considerations and reporting updates with the new Server. In a nutshell this is the perfect material for understanding EDI processing in 2006 R2 environment.

Great EDI/BizTalk 2006 R2 Reference December 9, 2007
Brennan Oreilly (Seattle, WA USA)
While EDI is straight forward in concept to understand it can be difficult to implement. This book is targeted towards the developer and architect tasked with crafting a B2B EDI solution and does a great job at detailing what needs to happen to make this task possible on the BizTalk 2006 R2 platform.

This book does not focus on the business specifics around EDI, but rather immediately jumps into detailed and concrete examples that can easily be extended into the real world. There are many EDI features with BizTalk 2006 R2 that can only be understood after working with the product across many projects. This book will reduce the time required experimenting with the tool just to understand the new features. I recommend this book to anyone working with EDI and BizTalk 2006 R2.

4 out of 5 stars

Good book overall. October 27, 2008
ARK (Seattle, WA USA)
There is not much material out there on the subject of EDI and BizTalk. Considering that, this is a very useful book. It has several useful exercises. It is definitely helpful if you have a working knowledge of BizTalk Server to get the most benefit from this book.

Author clearly lacks in-depth BizTalk knowledge November 7, 2008
Rob
This book failed to provide deep level explainations for how BizTalk Server processes EDI formatted data. Many topics are glossed over and in some cases he simply states that a topic is beyond the scope of the book. At less than 200 pages this book serves as a primer for EDI message processing using BizTalk Server. I found the product documentation much more helpful than most of the rubish found in this book.

Also, a fair number of the "Examples" failed to work. In the case of the AS2 configuration (one of the highest priority topics for me), the book shows properties that don't even exist.

Apress let me down again. :(
