BizTalk 2006 Community Technical Preview approaching fast; how about low-latency?

As stated here: BizTalk Server 2006 Rolling Thunder #3: Business Activity Monitoring , the goal is to have a CTP ready for Tech Ed USA.

I’m pretty curious about the new features.

One thing I’m hoping for personally, is that it will now be possible to also have more on-line, low-latency types of interaction with BizTalk. I know we need to be asynchronous and loosely coupled, but this is simply not possible or the best solution for all scenarios.

 

Consider a user doing a lookup (based on a customer phone call) that needs some smart integration logic across multiple systems.

We have seen numerous cases were such functionality was needed. BizTalk 2004 is optimized for throughput, giving us a hard time to make low-latency scenario’s work… and you don’t want to switch do DIY because you would be missing out on transformation functionality etc…
