Description

SOA is about architecture, not products and SOA enables you to create better business processes faster than ever. While BizTalk Server 2009 is a powerful tool, by itself it cannot deliver long-lasting, agile solutions unless we actively apply tried and tested service-oriented principles. The current BizTalk Server books are all for the 2006 version and none of them specifically looks at how to map service-oriented principles and patterns to the BizTalk product. That's where this book fits in. In this book, we specifically investigate how to design and build service-oriented solutions using BizTalk Server 2009 as the host platform. This book extends your existing BizTalk knowledge to apply service-oriented thinking to classic BizTalk scenarios. We look at how to build the most reusable, flexible, and loosely-coupled solutions possible in the BizTalk environment. Along the way, we dive deeply into BizTalk Server's integration with Windows Communication Foundation, and see how to take advantage of the latest updates to the Microsoft platform. Chock full of dozens of demonstrations, this book walks through design considerations, development options, and strategies for maintaining production solutions.

Who is this book for?

Targeted at individuals already familiar with BizTalk Server and not those expecting a full tutorial on every aspect of the product, this book is ideal for architects and developers who want to develop the most maintainable BizTalk Server solutions possible. This is the first book available on BizTalk Server 2009 and covers all relevant features for those of you designing a BizTalk business solution.

What you will learn

Hernan de Lahitte Jul 06, 2009

Over the last weeks after finishing my collaboration with the ESB Toolkit project, I had the chance to read a great book on Biztalk called SOA Patterns with BizTalk Server 2009 by Richard Seroter, an authority on BizTalk topics.The book discusses in a very comprehensive and well structured way the core principles of SOA and how to get a great synergy with WCF Adapters with samples on implementation of synchronous and asynchronous communication patterns. In particular I was more biased to focus on chapter 11 where it is described the ESB Toolkit[...].The first thing I noticed was that the chapter was based on the CTP2 version of the toolkit. Nevertheless, the overall structure and samples are pretty good and follow basically the general approach. Naturally some details and parts had changed since that version of the toolkit and in particular the licensing area where now it DOES have official Microsoft support as a product (Biztalk Server 2009).After that I also found that Richard also posted in his blog some comments and samples regarding the final version like the presentation of the latest ESB Toolkit version or this great sample about executing multiple maps in sequence (Notice that this sample shows some screenshots of the new Itinerary Designer). [...]I recommend this book to all Biztalk audiences in particular if you want to build maintainable mission critical based solutions.

I would say that the main audience for this book is developers with understanding of BizTalk and preferably WCF. Those will get the most value out of it. Administrators, looks elsewhere. Beginners, read another book first, like Professional BizTalk Server 2006, that explains the concepts. Then read this one to learn how to put them together in the most efficient, loosely coupled and change resistent way. Even seasoned BizTalk developers will pick up a thing or two, and get valuable reminders of others.Most of the knowledge you get from this book is applicable to BizTalk Server 2006 R2 as well, and is valid even though you are not "doing SOA".Richard has a style of writing that's... entertaining and easy to read. Some books have a tendency to go on and on without really saying too much. Let me assure you, that's not the case here.

"SOA Patterns with BizTalk Server 2009" by Richard Seroter, reviewQuestions:Who is the reader of this book? What is the level of the reader? How good is the book structure?I think reader should be a seasoned BizTalk developer. It should not be an entry level developer; they must read BizTalk documentation first.This book is for architects, but for architects with wealthy knowledge of the BizTalk. I suggest it should be a senior level of BizTalk developer, which is equal to an Integration Architect title.First three and last four chapters of this book you can read only for quick review your knowledge.I am highly recommending chapters 4 to 7. They are from Richards's wealthy experience. They are the heart and soul of the book. I'd like to see much more such interesting things, maybe in next version of this book?Is it about BizTalk 2009 or about BizTalk?Chapters 9 to 12 are about BizTalk 2009 features and tools. Other chapters are not depending on the last version. They are more than that, better than that.Is it about SOA Patterns?Yes.Is it the "recipe" book?There are several good recipes. But this book is not a recipe book.Is it the button-to-button book?No, luckily it isn't.How is the book covering the material?Chapter Audience Level (1-5) Grade (1-5)Chapter 1: Building BizTalk Server 2009 Applications ArchitectDeveloper 3 1Chapter 2: Windows Communication Foundation Primer Developer 1 1Chapter 3: Using WCF Services in BizTalk Server 2009 Developer 3 3Chapter 4: Planning Service-Oriented BizTalk Architect 3 4Chapter 5: Schema and Endpoint Patterns Developer, Architect 3 5Chapter 6: Asynchronous Communication Patterns Developer 4 5Chapter 7: Orchestration Patterns Developer, Architect 4 4Chapter 8: Versioning Developer 3 3Chapter 9: New SOA Capabilities in BizTalk Server 2009: WCF SQL Server Adapter Developer 3 3Chapter 10: New SOA Capabilities in BizTalk Server 2009: UDDI Services Developer 3 2Chapter 11: New SOA Capabilities in BizTalk Server 2009: ESB Guidance 2 Developer 3 3Chapter 12: What's NextWhere Level:1 - developers with entry level knowledge of BizTalk and no working experience2 - developers with entry level knowledge of BizTalk and small working experience3 - developers with fair level knowledge of BizTalk and fair working experience4 - developers with expert level knowledge of BizTalk and fair working experience5 - developers with expert level knowledge of BizTalk and expert working experienceI have to say, that several parts of this book "must be read" by each BizTalk developer. I insist these parts MUST be the part of the BizTalk Documentation from the early start and it is shame for Microsoft they are not in BizTalk Documentation. For example, the Schema Patterns, Chapter 5, how could developers work with Web-services without main knowledge about basic principles of serializing schemas to .NET classes?Sometimes author jumps from really interesting discussions about patterns to show how to implement it on "too much details" fashion.When I have marked the chapters with 2 or 1 grade, I was thinking in this way "I didn't find any reasons to include this chapter in the book. Author presented the common information and nothing from his experience. Common description and common examples, but I want to read the expert opinion, expert arguments, expert view, expert pros and cons." I understand why these chapters are in the book, but I just don't like this. If I cannot see the author opinion in the text, why should I choose the book?For Chapter 11 about ESB I would highly recommend the webcast by Richard Seroter "A look at the ESB Toolkit 2.0 in BizTalk Server 2009" [...]. It is just the up-to-date version of this Chapter.Pros:"SOA Patterns with BizTalk Server 2009" book includes very interesting material.Book includes unique material.Book is covering several useful SOA patterns implemented in/with BizTalk Server.Book is not only about "how" but about "why". And this is the best part of it.Cons:Several chapters in this book are just "stuff" for volume. But this part is only about half of the book and this is good proportion. Yes, it is a good proportion. Usually this kind of books has smaller "performance index".ConclusionThis book is very helpful for the Integration Architects and BizTalk Developers.It was written by one of the most respectful BizTalk expert in the world.It obviously must be on the table of each BizTalk Developer. Highly RecommendedLeonid Ganeline [BizTalk MVP]

By far, the best book I've read on BizTalk 2009... This is one of the first books to have come out on BizTalk 2009 and has indepth coverage of advanced topics...Agreed, this book is not for beginners... It doesn't walk you through creating artifacts but if you already have a knowledge of the biztalk, then this book will help you solidify your concepts and you will learn much more...This book ain't for beginners!!!

Jeffrey Sanders Aug 09, 2010

BizTalk and WCF are both broad and deep connected systems technologies. To date, there have been very few books that provide enough context into their integration, while also leaving the reader with real-world tips that provide value. Seroter's "SOA Patterns with BizTalk Server 2009" is one such book. Richard is an accomplished technologist and excellent writer who travels in the right circles. He's respected and recognized by Microsoft team members, and his real-world knowledge of both BizTalk and WCF are demonstrated throughout. The book starts out with a basic coverage of BizTalk, but not at an intro level. I enjoyed the inclusion of and focus upon schema development: BizTalk provides outstanding support for cardinality, enumerations, and other capabilities in Schemas, yet they are rarely used. The coverage of WCF, initially, is not too verbose, nor is it too shallow. Richard clearly addresses the topics that all BizTalk/WCF/Connected Systems developers must face: how do the technologies interact, what are the best bindings to use, how should I structure my projects to promote re-usability, why is abstraction so important, which approach to schema and endpoint versioning is best, when are building canonical schemas considered overkill.I enjoyed the "Notes" and "Pitfalls" called out throughout the book, including things you'll likely run into, as well as real-world, non-technical examples of abstraction, interoperability, and re-usability. All good talking points for non-technologists, and great analogies for use with clients. The coverage of truly asynchronous messaging is thorough, and there are some really great references throughout (the "Node data type conversion for service clients" table has been bookmarked in my copy since I first read it). The writing style, throughout the book, is professional but also casual, which makes an otherwise complex topic very approachable.One of my favorite aspects is how Richard assumes you understand the different options available, and then walks you through why one is better over the other (for instance, why to set maps at the port level instead of using Transform shapes within the orchestration). Seroter is honest in some of his examples, for instance, CEP, where he lets the reader know that BizTalk could be used, but one would be delusional to think it was best suited to do so. The coverage of Microsoft's UDDI Services (an entire chapter) underscores the importance of an oftentimes overlooked technology, and I found the content related to ESB Guidance 2.0 to be a thorough overview with solid examples.If I had any nitpicks about this book, it would be that the examples don't follow one consistent scenario, and that the content, from chapter to chapter, does not tie together in a linear fashion. Then again, in the real-world, there never is one singular scenario, and rarely do connected systems project build in a linear fashion.This book is a go-to for me, and a great refresher when I need a break, and want to validate that I'm reaching the right level of abstraction, interoperability, and encapsulation without going overboard. Any Microsoft SOA developer worth his/her salt should include it in their arsenal.
