Intranet 2.0
In the development of an Intranet there are several stages. Supplier Macaw has developed a model called the Portal Dimension model.Stage 1: Intranet is used for basic information distributed top down, often by the IT- or communications department.
Stage 2: more interaction on the intranet, employees publish there own infomation, basic forms of collaboration, sharing of documents.
Stage 3: all business applications are integrated in the Intranet. Employees use the Intranet in their daily activities, the portalsite is the central starting point.
Stage 4: the final stage where intranet is an fully integrated part of the IT infrastructuur and therefore a business critical application of invaluable importance.
My assumption is that in my company we are now in the middle of Stage 3. Migrating all our applications to a Server based deployment model (Terminal Server/Citrix, Web based) and creating a Sharepoint portal will enable us to complete Stage 3 and enter Stage 4.

MSF for Agile Software Development
For more then 20 years my world of software development was centered around Oracle. You could say that I suffered from a tunnel vision. OK, Microsoft for the desktop was a fact, but if we were talking about serious transaction driven applications Oracle was the way to go. As a result all the developers in our shop were Oracle (Forms, Reports, PL/SQL) trained. More or less we were used to a CDM like development method and vocabulary.
A couple of years ago we decided to go the "browser only" way. Web based applications developed with :Lotus Domino/Notes. (Using Lotus Notes as the collaboration platform didn't get a lot of supporters so we decided to keep Exchange as our mail/agenda platform.)
Recently we proclaimed the "Microsoft all the way" approach. There are a lot of good reasons for this. Perhaps something I can write about in another post.
As a result of this all Microsoft info is viewed from a different perspective. Even methodologies as MSF come into the picture. As a first step I'm getting into this area in order to find out if this MSF thing can be usefull for our shop.
MSF for Agile Software Development is a scenario-driven, context-based, agile software development process that utilizes many of the ideas embodied in Team System. This process incorporates proven practices developed at Microsoft around requirements, design, security, performance, and testing. This new release introduces the new Team Model, Mindsets, and Principles.

SQL Server Migration Assistant for Oracle V1.0
SQL Server Migration Assistant (SSMA) is a complete suite of
tools that automates all phases of the migration process from Oracle to
Microsoft SQL Server, enabling customers to migrate their databases
quickly, easily and accurately. Many organizations continue to run
their applications on other databases because the cost and complexity
of migrating are so daunting. SSMA addresses these concerns by
automating almost every aspect of database migration, including
assessment, schema and data migration, business logic conversion,
validation, integration and performance analysis. As a result, the
time, cost, and risks associated with migrating to SQL Server are
greatly reduced. This enables customers to take advantage of SQL
Server’s superior developer productivity, scalability, security, and
the industry’s lowest total cost of ownership (TCO).
