Complex Event Processing Technology

I read some posts today around Complex Event Processing (CEP) where Microsoft has provided a solution for. This solution is Microsoft’s new Complex Event Processing technology to help businesses derive better insights by correlating event streams from multiple sources with near-zero latency and called: ‘Microsoft® SQL Server® StreamInsight’. A CTP can be downloaded from Microsoft.I have not yet been able to try this out, but I will as soon as time is available. Some bright minds in the BizTalk community already made some comments like Charles Young and Richard Seroter mentioned in his recent post. Latter also written about CEP in BizTalk in his SOA Patterns with BizTalk 2009 book. So it is worth checking out if you have the time.

DTAP Strategy: Pricing and Licensing

Image
To implement BizTalk solutions it is a good practice to have an DTAP environment in place. DTAP stands for Development, Test, Acceptance and Production. Development and test environments are equal (mirrored) and same account for acceptance and production. Deploying DTAP environments is easy, because there are many factors influencing outcome of DTAP. One factor is pricing and licensing costs. BizTalk is available in different editions and since BizTalk depends on operating system and database there are some configuration options to. Here is an overview of possible configurations for DTAP environments, hence there is a nice BizTalk Feature Dependency Matrix. Besides features, there are non-functional requirements to reckon with like fail-over, availability and scalability. On Microsoft Pricing and Licensing FAQ section of BizTalk I found this on non functional side. In a large BizTalk Server 2006 R2 deployment, two key considerations ensure redundancy in all areas of the architect...

In a nutshell these topics are: Configuring messaging architecture (setup, manage ports, configure adapters, implement messaging solutions); Developing BizTalk Artefacts (building orchestrations, create schema’s, maps and pipelines); Debugging and Exception Handling (debug orchestrations, validate and test artefacts like schema’s, maps, pipelines); Integrating Web Services and Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) Services (WCF Adapters); Implementing Extended Capabilities (this is the BAM, BRE, RFID and EDI part); Deploying, Tracking, and Supporting a BizTalk Solution (Installation in different kinds of scenario’s, deployment of applications, bindings). You can find a lot of resources that can help in preparation through BizTalk Development Center like the BizTalk tutorials for EA...

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...
