Who this book is for
Any company or individual interested in a BizTalk 2006 EDI implementation will be interested in this book, as there are virtually no resources available. Any company or individual interested in a new EDI implementation (or redeveloping an existing EDI infrastructure) will benefit from this book as they work to determine what options are on the market, and how complex those options are to build and support. Finally, many BizTalk developers without direct EDI experience will be interested, as it covers a little–understood topic in BizTalk Server development.
