While Microsoft has introduced such commerce software as BizTalk Server, Host Integration Server, and SQL Server Application Centre, there isn't a Web site or e-commerce business that can function until these technologies work together. This book details how to use all these products together to run your e-commerce effectively and efficiently.
This book covers Microsoft's entire E-Commerce initiative, discussing all the technologies introduced in Windows 2000: Site/Commerce Server, SQL Server 2000, IIS, Exchange Server, BizTalk Server, Application Centre, Active Server Pages, and Visual Basic.
The book shows how all of these products need to interact in order to create the most efficient, robust, scalable e-commerce site around. The author takes the reader through the entire e-commerce process, including common mistakes and pitfalls, aimed to help interested readers avoid such cost and time overruns.
The CD-ROM includes trial versions of as many Microsoft products as are available, as well as the case studies that are used throughout the book in various stages.
