It is best practice in my opinion when installing BizTalk to follow BizTalk installation manuals. Microsoft provides manuals for each supported operating system or multi-server installation. BizTalk 2010 is supported on: ▪ Windows Server 2008 R2 ▪ Windows Server 2008 with Service Pack 2 ▪ Windows 7 ▪ Windows Vista with Service Pack 2 ▪ Windows XP with Service Pack 3 Other requirements are: ▪ Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) 7.0 or 7.5 ▪ Microsoft Office Excel 2010 or 2007 ▪ Microsoft .NET Framework 4 and .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 ▪ Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 with Visual C# .NET. Required for BizTalk Server applications development and debugging; not required for production-only systems ▪ SQL Server 2008 R2 or SQL Server 2008 SP1 ▪ SQL Server 2005 Notification Services with Service Pack 2 ▪ The Windows SharePoint Services adapter Web service requires SharePoint Server 2010, SharePoint Foundation 2010, Windows SharePoint Services 3.
