Amazon Cloud Services

One of Microsoft’s competitors in the Cloud Computing space is Amazon. Through Scott Banwart’s blog I found that there is a series of articles out about Amazon’s offerings. Something for me to check out as soon as I am home.

Table Operation on Oracle 11g XE with OracleDbBinding

Image
Last year I did a post on table operations on SQL Server Table with WCF-SQL Adapter from BizTalk on SQL. Now I like to do similar thing on table in Oracle 11g Express database using the Oracle Binding from BizTalk Adapter Pack 2010. Oracle 11g Express Edition is available through OTN. For downloading software you will need to have an account! It is important that when accessing Oracle you have appropriate client installed. This can sometimes be a hassle if you do not know, which client you need. When you trying to connect to Oracle you will get error messages like: Connecting to the LOB system has failed. Could not load file or assembly 'Oracle.DataAccess, Version=2.111.7.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=89b483f429c47342' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.. This can be pretty annoying, but there is documentation that can help you going the right direction. In installation documentation I read that supported versions are: Oracle d...

BizTalk CAT Instrumentation Framework Controller: My First Experience

Image
In past I have used log4net or System.Diagnostics.Trace component of .NET for logging and tracing. Until a few months ago the post Best Practices for Instrumenting High Performance BizTalk Solutions got my attention. I read it, but did not start using it directly as I wasn’t doing any development. These days I sometimes am involved in development of BizTalk solutions, so moment was there. Recently BizTalk CAT Instrumentation Framework Controller was released on CodePlex . The BizTalk CAT Instrumentation Framework is a high performance tracing/logging framework for BizTalk that builds upon the Event Tracing for Windows (ETW) infrastructure. It was created by Microsoft's BizTalk Customer Advisory Team (CAT). The Controller is an easy-to-use GUI for the BizTalk CAT Instrumentation Framework. My thinking was why don’t I try this UI out in combination with Microsoft AppFabric CAT Best Practices Samples . The BizTalk Instrumentation Best Practices Samples solution provides a reus...

Service Bus Messaging: Queues, SB-Messaging Adapter

Image
Like some of you I have been experimenting with the Service Bus Queues, Topics and subscriptions. The information from Microsoft gives you a straight forward insight how to send messages to queues , topics and subscriptions using .NET.  The first step to interact with the Service Bus Queues, Topics and subscriptions is by creating an account with Windows Azure through a trail or buy option . The next step is creating a service namespace through the Windows Azure Portal followed by obtaining the management credentials you need when setting up Service Bus Connection string.  To create a solution that can interact with the Service Bus you need to have a reference in your Visual Studio project to the Microsoft.ServiceBus.dll on your machine, which is a part of the Windows Azure SDK . In your code template (for instance C# form) you will add two using statements:   using Microsoft.ServiceBus; using Microsoft.ServiceBus.Messaging; Now everything is setup for coding your ...
