BizTalk Development

Architecture of PeopleSoft Adapter: The BizTalk PeopleSoft Adapter is based on the BizTalk Server Adapter Framework. More info: How the Adapter Is Designed: The Adapter Framework. The PeopleSoft adapter basically communicates with the PeopleSoft Component Interfaces via the PeopleSoft JOLT protocol (over TCP/IP). The adapter communicates with PeopleSoft system by receiving a XML message which is later encapsulated into a SOAP request using the PeopleSoft psjoa classes. With this connection we can...

Today we are glad to announce HERMES, an Open Source Infrastructure for publish subscribe messaging model based on MongoDB and RESTful Services. This is 8th release of an open source project from TellagoDevLabs on Codeplex. Hermes is months of hard work by us, including Silvio Massari, Jose Romaniello and Gustavo Machado. Hermes is not BizTalk Server. BizTalk Server has pub-sub mechanism in its infrastructure but in very traditional way and it hasn’t provided a foundation that can be seamlessly used...

Hi there, Recently we had a requirement to integrate a RESTful Service with BizTalk Server. Well no biggie. You can use WCF – Custom Adapter and use webHTTP binding and add a webHttp Endpoint behavior. Wala. Easy to say, little bit tricky to do. You can look at some of these post by my company folks Jesus Rodriguez, Adrian & Leandro and also nice one on MSDN. Well there are bunch of other posts out there. That all is fine, but what if you want to have a polling receive location which needs to...

Recently I was building a VM for a BizTalk 2006 R2 project. My VM configuration was : Windows 2003 R2 SQL 2005 with SP4 Visual Studio 2005 with SP1 BizTalk Server 2006R2 I installed the BizTalk Server 2006 R2 SP1 update from the Windows Update. Life was good so far. Next I got requirement to use WCF SQL adapter and there I went and started installing the pre-requisite for it. 1. WCF LOB Adapter SDK SP2 2. Microsoft BizTalk Adapter for SQL Server. After that I went and tried to Add the Adapter metadata...

A few months ago we at Tellago had open sourced the BizTalk Data Services. We were meanwhile working on other artifacts which comes along with BizTalk Server like the “Business Rules Engine”. We are happy to announce the first version of BRE Data Services. BRE Data Services is a same concept which we covered through BTS Data Services, providing a RESTFul OData – based API to interact with the Business Rules Engine via HTTP using ATOM Publishing Protocol or JSON as the encoding mechanism. In the first...

Hi, Shown below is one of the most easiest way to configure a BizTalk Receive Location which can receive any WCF Message based on the Binding type you provide in the configuration. This uses the WCF Custom WebService Host Factory. Where you can use this type of configurations? · Scenario where you need to send a WCF Message from .NET Code. · BizTalk Unit Testing. · Receive Locations which will be using ESB Toolkit receive locations. · and Many more. Anyways, below are the steps: - Create a IIS Virtual...

Hi there folks, I have created few more ESB Itineraries samples which uses the SO-Aware ESB Resolver for different kinds of scenarios. Scenarios like: 1. Two Way Itinerary : Msg In -- Transform -- Route -- ReqestResponse WCF Svc (Registed in SoAware) -- Transform -- Route -- Destination WCF Service (Registered in SoAware). 2. One Way Routing: Msg in -- Resolve Routing parameters -- WCF Service (Registered in SOAware) Thanks and Happy SO-Awaring with ESB and BizTalk. ;-) -Vishal Mody...

Hey folks, Recently, Tellago Studios released its first product SO-Aware, A WCF RESTful Service Metadata Repository. Now talking about WCF Services and how can we forget them being used extensively by BizTalk Server. Let’s check it out with a simple scenario. Say you are using SO-Aware as a central repository for all your Web Services. Some of those services are also integrated with BizTalk. Now on one hand you have a central repository for your services and your life is going smooth but when it...

Why do you want to add these properties to the BRE..?? There is a performance tradeoff when using WCF adapters with Dynamic Send Port. Below is a link for more info. http://blogs.msdn.com/mdoct... So if you are using ESB Toolkit 2.0 in your solution and you do not want to move towards static port then you can add the below line in your SetEndpointConfig...

Hi there, Today we will be doing a quick little test to send a XML message to BizTalk with few lines of code. I had a scenario in my solution in which I had a WCF LOB Outbound Adapter which was doing some work and later the same code had to submit message back to BizTalk. First solution I thought of was writing the message to a File Location and than a BizTalk Receive Location picks it up from there and processes it. But then came up with a different solution of using WCF netPipe and submitting it...

Hello All, Recently I am engaged in an Integration project in which I have to Integrate BizTalk Server 2006 R2 with EMC Solutions product called Smarts Software. This Smarts Software exposes a Java API and a Web Service interface. Initially knowing that it exposes a Web Service I felt relief and it would make my life easy but then talking with the Smarts Software people they told us that the Web Service Interface is very naïve and it does not have all the functionality we need for the Integration....
