Adapter Pack • Adapter Pack provides versatile and consistent interoperability with LOB systems like SAP, Siebel, Oracle, and TIBCO. • It is a collection of application adapters that enables any Windows application to integrate with LOB applications using the Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) programming model. • Introduced with BizTalk Server 2006 R2. • Adapter Packs has been evolving last years with more adapters and enhancements to support latest versions of LOB systems and SQL Server.
A little history … • First adapter Microsoft supported was SAP • 2005 Microsoft acquired eight adapters from iWay before major release of BizTalk 2006 • Adapters (Amdocs, JD Edwards, Oracle Corp., PeopleSoft, Siebel Systems Inc. and TIBCO) • Based upon BizTalk Server Adapter Framework • Subsequent adapters (not all) in later packs are based on WCF
Scenario’s • On-premise scenario with Oracle 11g XE • Connect for services scenario using the Service Bus Relay • Hybrid Scenario using Service Bus Queues, SQL Azure and BizTalk Server • Using EAI Bridge to Send Message to On-premise LOBs (SQL Server) • BizTalk Server 2010 R2 CTP SB-Messaging
Oracle Connectivity • Adapter Packs 1.0 to 2010 support connectivity with different Oracle • With BizTalk Adapter (WCF) OracleDbBinding you can: • Perform Table Operations • Invoke functions, functions with Record Types, or with REF CURSORs • Invoke Overloaded Procedures, Procedures with BFILE Parameters, Stored-Procedures • Polling • Execute Statement

Service Bus Messaging • QUEUES • Provide loose coupling between components and enables load balancing and load leveling. • Developers can interact with queues via WCF bindings, .NET API or REST API. • TOPICS • Topics are like queues except that they allow messages to be consumed by multiple parties. • Subscriptions are added to topics and rules can be applied to limit the messages received. • Can have multiple subscribers for a single subscription (for load balancing) or one subscriber per subscription (multi-cast).
