SharePoint 2010 integration with Commerce Server 2009, Finally!

It only took a few months for the Microsoft Commerce Server 2009 Product Unit to announce support for SharePoint 2010. With all the expected improvements in SharePoint 2010 as a Web Content Management (WCM) solution, it is only practical that we find a way to maximize the improvements made in both products for pushing the limits of ECommerce Technology built on the Microsoft Stack. I look forward to exploring the limitations and strongholds of both solutions on my next project.




What’s in the new Template Pack?

The Template Pack provides all fundamental e-commerce presentation components, as well as a full-featured shopping Web site using Microsoft SharePoint 2010 as the presentation host. The Template Pack includes a refreshed, contemporary skin for the default site (included with Commerce Server 2009) with a production quality design that can be quickly and easily customized to suit your needs. The contemporary site is designed for viewing in both desktop browsers and mobile devices (specifically Windows Mobile and iPhone devices).  The Template Pack also includes the source code for the associated 30 Web Parts and controls allowing customers to customize the out-of-the-box components to meet your immediate needs.  Note, Microsoft Commerce Server 2009 must be installed and configured before installing the Commerce Server 2009 Template Pack for SharePoint 2010.
