Windows Service vs BizTalk
|
|
|
| Hi,
I want to get information from a legacy system. I want to fire multiple
threads to get the information simultaneously. Can somebody please
guide, if I should use BizTalk for that purpose or should write a
windows service. If BizTalk then how?
Any Idea/help will be highly appreciated
Regards,
MNA

| This really depends upon the legacy system, how you will access it to get
the data and what type of data. If it's transactional data to be sent to
another system, BizTalk is your best bet. If it's data warehouse or
reporting data you want to import into SQL, you may want to consider SQL
Server 2000 DTS or SQL 2005 SSIS (integration services).

| Thanks Jeff!
I don't want to send the data I want to get the data. My Questions are:
How can I get data using a component (which is tested and trusted)?
If I use an orchestration, then how will I invoke the orchestration?
If use an orchestration can I run it on scheduled basis?
If not orchestration, then do I need to write adapter of my own? if so
then any example?
Is there any issue of using multi-threaded component from within
BizTalk?
Sorry for so many questions and Thanks in advance!
Regards,
MNA

| It sounds like you have a custom component that (already) retrieves data
from a system and would like to use this component to submit the data to
BizTalk for further processing on a scheduled basis. There are several ways
to accomplish this. Take a look at the SubmitDirect sample in the BizTalk
Server SDK for a pretty good example.

| There is always the $$$ factor. Before anything, do you already have a
BizTalk license or a greater reason to purchase one?
Thanks,
