Ryan CrawCour Independent Consultant & Integration Specialist Session Code: SOA 307

Session Objectives Understand the ESB architectural pattern and its place within the overall Application Platform Understand the architecture of the ESB Toolkit See the capabilities and features of the ESB Toolkit, and how they can accelerate ESB deployments Discuss the scenarios where it is appropriate to use instead of traditional BizTalk

Agenda ESB: what it is and why it matters Architectural Overview Technical Drilldown Demos, demos, demos Service composition Demos

So What’s The Difference?

Rethinking The Solution As A Set Of Capabilities

Enter The ESB Guidance V1 Jointly developed by Patterns and Practices and the Connected Systems What was its goal? Demonstrate the ESB pattern using BizTalk Reduce the amount of “plumbing” you need to do Reduce the total cost and effort needed for an ESB What was in it? Architectural guidance Prebuilt BizTalk components Samples Exception Management Framework and Portal

The Core ESB Guidance Concepts Itineraries Resolvers Adapter Providers

Itinerary Concept Heart of the ESB Guidance Provide runtime flexibility that BizTalk doesn’t have by default Provide a service composition mechanism

Creating An Itinerary

Using Itineraries Design Time XML File Itinerary Database Run Time ItineraryItinerary OnRampOnRamp Itinerary Selector ESBProcessingESBProcessing Itinerary & Message MessageMessage

Ways to Assign Itineraries Client sends message to Itinerary Generic On-Ramp, pipeline component selects an itinerary using configurable resolver Service Proxy Client sends request to an Itinerary On-Ramp passing itinerary SOAP or WCF Header Advanced Service Client Client resolves itinerary via resolver service and then sends request to On-Ramp with itinerary header Adaptive Service Client

Resolvers For runtime flexibility ESB Services are not hard- coded to specific endpoints or maps Resolver mechanism can locate and retrieve this metadata Itineraries define which ESB services execute and in which order Resolvers define how ESB services execute

NEW: Resolvers Shipped Endpoint Resolution Artifact Resolution ESB Resolvers V1 V1 V2 V2

Service Composition Composing, Choreographing or “Chaining” services is a key capability for an ESB Physical Service Composed Service

Service Composition In V2 We have the “Itinerary Forwarder” Allows straight-forward chaining of services using only BizTalk ports Orchestrations can be used to create more complex business processes across services

BizTalk and the ESB Toolkit in action

ESB Administration Portal Overview ASP.NET-based sample application This is a sample of how ESB operational metrics and data can be surfaced Process or group-specific portals could be created in SharePoint, leveraging ESBG assets such as BAM tracking and exception handling

What Else Is New In V2? Provides enhanced tooling, on top of an optimized core Provides even more extensibility points Includes a simplified install processes Includes a new configuration tool Configure core services and portal Configure runtime stores

Summary What it gives you… Loosely-coupled messaging environment Registry-driven message routing Itinerary-based processing Logically-centralized messaging fabric Why you want it… Higher levels of reuse Lower operational costs Dynamic business changes Collection point for business, service, and exception metrics
