All about BizTalk Server in Simple Language

For understanding BizTalk Server, one needs to get familiar with the terms such as XML, SOA, Orchestrations, SOAP, etc. In the messaging subsystem of the BizTalk Server Architecture, XML messages are received and sent. The files enter through Receive Ports or the channels through which the messages come and are delivered to the "Message Box" by means of a "Receive Pipeline". Receive Pipeline comprises of several frameworks for instance, "Party Resolution", "Disassembling" and "Decoding" and sends the messages that are processed from a "Send Port" to the target. The message Box is the core of the BizTalk server as would be agreed by any BizTalk consultant. Through this, the Server takes care of the dependability for your messages with regard to the assured timely delivery. In case the node in the Server fails, the message will be taken up by another node.

Now in the BizTalk server, varied forms of transportation can be managed through the adaptors like SAP or DB2 adaptor. The BizTalk Publish-Subscribe system makes out which Orchestrations subscribe to that specific message, depending on the promoted data, and in view of that, routes it. The Orchestrations are basically the processed that are described in the Business Process Execution Language (BPEL). Using the Transformation Maps, the format of the message can also be altered at this step. 

Business Rules Engine is drawn on in BizTalk Development for issuing the existing strategies which are a set of Rules from the Orchestration that are ever-changing. The function of the "Send Pipelines" is a complete opposite of the "Receive Pipelines" and includes "Signing", "Encoding" and "Assembling" of the message. Last to learn about is the Send Ports that manage the transport similar to the receive ports but in the opposite direction, that is, from the Message Box to the target.
