Top 10 Cool things in BTS 2004 #1. Building with Visual Studio.NET #2. Pub/Sub messaging #3. Adapter framework #4. Orchestration “on steroids” #5. Orchestrating Web Services #6. BPEL support #7. Real-time tracking/debugging #8. Business Activity Monitoring #9. Business Rules 6:30pm session #10. Human-based workflow 6:30pm/done #11. InfoPath Integration – Already done

#1 + #2 Building with Visual Studio.NET and pub/sub Visual Studio.NET solution contains many projects including: BizTalk Server Project Contains Schema Property Schema (“similar to” dictionary page in 2002) Maps Pipelines (“similar” to channels in 2002) Orchestration Source Code Control Built-in!!

Starting off simple…

BizTalk Server 2004 Recv Lcn Recv Port Send Port With Filter and Map C:\mig\simple\receive1 C:\mig\simple\send1 SimpleMap.btm Routing based on pub/sub Routing configured on send port Recv port publishes Send port subscribes Multiple recv locations (e.g. file, sql, ws) can be used in one recv port Recv port mapping should be in RTM

BizTalk Server 2000/2 Recv Fn Channel with Schema and Maps Port C:\mig\simple\receive1 simpleMap.xdr simpledest.xdr simpledest.xdr C:\mig\simple\send1 Routing configured at recv fn Routing based on Document Definition Src Organization Dest Organization

A simple migration

#3. Adapter framework Now symmetrical (cf. AIC was send only) Rich meta-data Integrated UIs Managed from BTS Admin Expect FTP adapter at RTM Example in the Beta: SQL adapter

#4. Orchestration “on steroids” Compiled to MSIL on the.NET FW Integrate any.NET component into orchestration 10 x BizTalk Server 2002 performance by RTM Super simple super-scale out Export/Import (at RTM) BPEL Nested processes Built-in Correlation Visio designer coming (post beta)

A simple EAI business problem Warehouse re-ordering is not connected to my ERP The process is manual, time consuming and expensive

#5. Orchestrating Web Services As easy as add Web-Ref Browse UDDI (local and external) Consume! Expose an Orchestration as a WS!

demo Orchestration Web Services

Business Process Execution Language for Web Services (BPEL) is a Web Services specification specification for: Business Process Interop Across Boundaries WSDL for business processes Best Practice Business Processes BizTalk Server 2004 supports BPEL export (beta), and import #6. BPEL

#7. Real-time tracking/debugging End to end tracking all the way through the process Nested debugging Breakpoints View messages Examine suspended queue

demo Real-time tracking and debugging

#8. Business Activity Monitoring SQL OLAP BizTalk Server 2004 Ask real-time questions How long is production taking right now? Ask aggregation questions How much money did we make last month? Use Data from documents or Process Complements existing SQL BI solutions

demo Business Activity Monitoring

Beta Tips and Tricks 1. Read the Readme and Install html files!! Typical pitfalls: System pre-reqs SQLXML 3.0 sp1 No MSMQ on your machine Local Accounts Create your own manually first (in the readme) IP renewing issue, especially on wireless laptops Restart the service (in the readme) If you get swiggles or ! In the OD but you think its all fine, rebuild The Receive Manager failed to update configuration for receive location "RecInfoPathAbsReqODWS" for adapter "SOAP". Reason: "Item has already been added. Key in dictionary: -> IISRESET Post to the newsgroup for help
