Microsoft's Support of Financial Services Standards

  • Artigo

There seems to be a bit of confusion in the financial services community about Microsoft's commitment to industry standards. As many of you know, on the technology standards side (WS-*) Microsoft is the clear leader in this space. On the industry side Microsoft is devoting time and energy in the industry standards communities. I have been devoting a lot of my time to IFX, ACORD and FSTC boards and working groups. We have been investing in the building industry software factories to jump start development efforts of the financial services community.  

So what's included in an industry software factory:

  • Provides you the help needed to build a specific line of business application
  • Incorporates a variety of guidance content types and form factors
    Architecture and design guidance, patterns, and how-to’s
  • Reference implementations
  • Application blocks

Pre-Built Industry Factories

We have created several factories or reference architectures that use the latest industry and technology standards. We have full support for these schemas at the technology level and have partners that support these through BizTalk adapters. Currently we only have a SWIFT and MISMO accelerator. Here are the ones you can find today:
