The following applications and utilities are optional, but they can be useful when working with the ESB Guidance:

  • Excel 2003 or Excel 2007 (required only to modify the BAM tracking spreadsheets)
  • Windows Sysinternals DebugView; this is highly recommended to enable you to see trace information as messages flow through the ESB, which can be useful when troubleshooting (available from https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896647.aspx)
