Career scope in BizTalk Development

I Have been working in .Net MVC development from 2 years.
But I want to migrate my career to BizTalk Development for potential career, does my opinion is good,
Please give me some suggestions, and let me know to continue with my career or yes, we can do..?
Please suggest me anyone with your words.
Thanks in Advance.

Hi,
Already having 2 years of solid .NET knowledge there is no doubt that you should go ahead and build your career around BizTalk.
A BizTalk developer needs to be able to write custom components, pipeline components, stubs, test consoles, etc. This is done in
a .Net language like C# (preferably), VB.Net, etc.
Besides that BizTalk itself is for a big part developed in .Net so I think .Net knowledge will also help you better understand BizTalk
as a product.
Given the advantages associated with the BizTalk server, a large number of companies including the medium and large sized ones are using the software
to ensure a better and smooth conduct of their businesses. Further, the BizTalk server solves the problems much faster and efficiently as compared to any other product being used for the same set of problems.
A person choosing to make a career out of BizTalk server is bound to get a good salary package, given the demands for qualified
BizTalk developer in the various sectors of industry.
BizTalk has proved to be one of the best Microsoft-sold products ever by ensuring reliable messaging among a vast range of technologies
and systems.
BizTalk has great future too. Guru is the Senior program manager at Microsoft and heads the BizTalk development from its v2000
onwards. He clarified various doubts, question about its future, road map, Microsoft's investment for BizTalk. Refer he links:
http://www.biztalk360.com/video/future-of-biztalk-server/
http://www.biztalk360.com/biztalk-summit-2014-london/
Steef Jan has shared his views in his article which
will clear most of your doubts about BizTalk as a integration tool and its future.
As rightly mentioned by him, BizTalk Server has been around for
over thirteen years and has matured to a full featured on premise enterprise integration product with more than 13000+ customers worldwide.

CAREER PLANNING IN PERSONNEL DEVELOPMENT

Hello Everyone,
1)In career planning, u create a career using the following path,
HUMAN RESOURCES -> PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT-> PERSONNEL DEVELOPMENT -> SETTINGS -> CURRENT SETTINGS -> EDIT CAREERS.
Here in EDIT CAREERS i have created a new career ,e.g. "SAP career", which can be included in the CAREER PLANNING as one of the planning criteria that is additional career. I have included potential, preferences, qualifications,designations and additional careers as my planning criteria.
Is this the career() for which we plan an object(in my case PERSON) or do we plan the person to just any position or job created..???
2) Also in CAREER PLANNING, we can see the person's(object) qualifications, potentials, preferences, careers, dislikes and designations.
Under designation, jobs and positions appear.
Are these the job and position the object(Person) is holding before Career planning is done or is he going to hold them after career planning is done???
In that case what is the use of additional careers??
am really confused.
Plz do help
Thanks,
Pooja Dev

Hi
There will be multiple places that you might need to update the program. But I would suggest that you should try with updating the evaluation path QUALDATA with your new Z object.

Career in Database kernel development

How is the career future in Database kernel development, such as index, locking, transaction managements?
It seems to me that the DB kernel is quite stable. Are there many opportunities in this area?
Thanks.

There are only two companies that likely will require those skills in the near future ... Oracle and Microsoft and I would expect they don't hire more than one or two new people a year.
Doesn't sound like a promising direction but if you are truly interested contact Oracle HR in Redwood Shores.

Need the career suggestion for Java developer

Dear all,
I am a programmer with four years experience in webMethods integration. I am also good at Oracle PL/SQL, XML and Java.
So, here is my question, shall I study for an ABAP certification and begin to look for an ABAP job? or, based on my background, I should try to get a Netweaver Java Certification and try to move to portal development or SAP XI?
Regards,
Mike

hi mike,
Its good u have such a good experience in webmethods and oracle/pl-sql and also java. i feel abap would be much better option to move on to.
ABAP is sap custom language, and it would always be preferred more over everthing else, and apart from that certified abapers are still very few, while compare that with java, which is at peak in the job market,and flodded with java proffesionals.
And as u have previous experience getting through abap certification wont be tough.Happy abap programing.......!!!!
Best of luck

BIZTALK DEVELOPER 2010 Fulfilment tutorial

HI All
I have installed BIZTALK DEV server and RFID and am am trying to work through the Order Fulfilment Tutorial. I have hit an error when trying to start the tutorial process
This request operation sent to net.tcp://win-metan9m9rf2:7891/rfid/service/ProcessManager did not receive a reply within the configured timeout (00:01:00). The time allotted to this operation may have been a portion of a longer timeout. This
may be because the service is still processing the operation or because the service was unable to send a reply message. Please consider increasing the operation timeout (by casting the channel/proxy to IContextChannel and setting the OperationTimeout
property) and ensure that the service is able to connect to the client.
Could anyone advise what I need to do please?
Thank you

Hi,
According to the error message, you need increase the operation timeout by casting the channel/proxy to IContextChannel and setting the OperationTimeout property, and check whether it works. At the same time you could provide more information about what
you have done, and we can give precise troubleshooting.
Best regards

Biztalk 2010 handling exception using the scope in Orchestration.

Hello,
1. I am trying to handle the errors and put them in the log using Scope. Here is the Orchestration I used,
The Expression_1 has
System.Diagnostics.EventLog.WriteEntry("Message Sent to the destination", "Message Sent to the destination");
Expression_2 has
System.Diagnostics.EventLog.WriteEntry("Failed to send the message to destination", "Failed to send the message to destination --" + exception.ToString() );
Expression_3 has
System.Diagnostics.EventLog.WriteEntry("General Exception-- Failed to send the message to destination", "Caught GeneralException-- Failed to send the message to destination");
When the message is sent without errors it shows up in the log. The message with error doesnot show up I dont know why,
I don't know what has to be changed.
2. I also don't know how to construct the error message and send it through email without using ESB toolkit. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks

Not sure I understand your first question. Is it "how to create and test an error (hence an error handling)?" If so, the easiest way is to add an Throw exception shape and set up the exception you are going to catch in the exception catch block.
2. you can use just the plain C# code like this:
MailMessage mail = new MailMessage("[email protected]", "[email protected]");
SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient();
client.Port = 25;
client.DeliveryMethod = SmtpDeliveryMethod.Network;
client.UseDefaultCredentials = false;
client.Host = "smtp.google.com";
mail.Subject = "this is a test email.";
mail.Body = "this is my test email body";
client.Send(mail);
copied from
here. It uses
System.Net.SmtpClient class.

BizTalk 2013R2 Developer Edition from Gallery - SQL Expired!!

I an a MSDN ultimate subscription holder and I have created a virtual machines within Azure from the Gallery. I have select the BizTalk 2013R2 Developer Edition from the gallery which has initially been great and save me a lot of time with
the setup. Unfortunately after only a couple of weeks my SQL license has expired.
As I did not select any form of evaluation edition I would not expect software licenses to expire when they are provisioned from the gallery whenever. As I understand it as an MSDN ultimate customer I am covered to license BizTalk Developer Edition
and indeed SQL which come as part of the gallery VM.
I've seen a number of posts online around this with no solution and I was wondering if you have a view on this.
Have I picked up the wrong understanding or is their a defect with the BizTalk 2013R2 Developer edition gallery image. A colleague recently reported the same thing happened with BizTalk 2013R2 standard edition image.
Any help and advice would be appreciate as I am stuck if SQL has expired. I don't see the point in provisioning a new gallery image if the same problem will happen.
It is very convenient provisioning from the gallery but if the licenses expire then they become less useful and very annoying. I could understand if I provisioned an evaluation copy but this was not the case here.
Cheers
Stephen

I have had no timely response from Microsoft on this yet, despite trying my best to seek assistance from them to help fix their defect.
Anyway I did a fresh search online and came accross this which has worked for me
https://www.phidiax.com/blog/post/Azure-Gallery-Image-for-BizTalk-Server-SQL-Server-evaluation-period-has-expired
If you have access to a valid copy of SQL Server 2014 Developer Edition then you can perform an Edition Upgrade and go from SQL 2014 Enterprise Evaluation Edition to SQL 2014 Developer Edition. Once I did this and restarted SQL Services I was
back up and running.
I suspect Microsoft will need to do this with the base gallery image and then re-load it whenever they can be bothered getting around to it OR whenever a customer with an Azure technical support contract raises it! No pay, no technical support outside
this forum.
I have not tried again to fire up a new 2013R2 Developer Edition image from the gallery to see if this is fixed yet.
Hopefully this helps anyone in the same boat as me. If you do not have access to SQL Server 2014 Developer Edition (via say msdn subscription) to perform this upgrade then I'm afraid you will still have difficulty resolving this.

Career as FLEX Developer

hi can any one help me..am pradeep am a B.sc Computer science graduate 2008 passout.currently working in a small consultancy as a process associate.
i want to start my career as a FLEX developer..
my doubt is being a 2008 passout candidate can i start my career on FLEX?
bcoz every one is asking b.tech and 2010 or 2011 passou.t plz help me.

Hi Pradeep,
I'm Ankur and working as Flex expert from last 3.5 years. I'm also an Adobe Certified in Flex. Invovled in interviewing lots of Flex guys for my company but let me tell you as an interviewer I never ever concentrate much on there degrees I know they are good to have but along with them you have to have technical and practical knowledge. So basically, doesn't matter if you are 2008 pass out or 2011 pass out I'm not sure if there is any major difference amongst two. All you have to know is knowledge of Flex in a good sense so you should be able to clear the interview.
Now, question is how to learn Flex, for that you should start building small small applications by yourself and read a good book. Once you are done to some extent start using livedocs and blog.flexexamples.com for more in depth knowledge.
Let me know if I could be of any other help.
Thanks

Mr X
How to force a DHCP database cleanup for expired leases in a specific scope
GO: "I'm actually thinking that nobody can defaut you Mr.X"
Philippe Levesque: "Good article ! I would add that changing the lease time to be shorted could help too."
JM: "A very good article, however you might consider adding this content as a section in your article about expired IP addresses in DHCP"
Richard Mueller: "More good information. Should be linked to the other DHCP article."
GL: "This is OK but a better solution for a highly utilized DHCP scope would be to shorten the lease time and/or configure a superscope."
Hicham KADIRI
Windows Server Core 2012 R2 - Initial configuration
GL: "This is good required information. I would really like to see information added about how to add a server role. You might consider providing PowerShell alternatives to the netsh and other commands."
JM: "This is a great to-the-point article on how to configure a Core install of Windows Server, nice work."
Richard Mueller: "A great collection of useful tools. Some could use images, more detail, or examples. The example sections could be added to the Table of Contents."
GO: "Well, our new french MVP! Well written Hicham! Do not forget to pray attention for the layout! It's capital for readers and judges!"
Philippe Levesque: "I like the article, a good resumé of the command you need to do to configure a server."

Sandro Pereira: "Good example, however this approach comes with little performance hit also and in some scenarios you can also find yourself in particular dangerous situation, for example if you don’t validate if the static singleton instance

How to get and save the incoming filename in to db in biztalk.

Hi,
I need to save the incoming file name in to a table in biztalk.
Below are the steps which are needed
1) Need to get the incoming file in orchestration
2) Map the incoming file in to field from source to destination schema(db) - such that file name will get stored in to table with other fields directly.
Your help is greatly appreciated.....
Thanks,
Vijayan

Per my understanding ,
-> you are trasforming incoming message to outbound message(for database).
-> One of the elements in oubound message is (let's say) FileName and is inserted into database.
-> And, you want to map incoming file name in outbound message field(FileName).
There could be any below resolutions:
Option1 : In orchestration, if inbound message is MsgIn and outbound message is MsgOut and destination schema element FileName is made as distinguished field then write below in construct message and message assignment shape.
MsgOut1=MsgOut;
MsgOut1(*)=MsgOut(*);
MsgOut1.FileName = MsgIn(BTS.ReceivedFileName).
//BizTalk engine promotes incoming message file name in property schema BTS.bts_system_properties.
Option2 : ->Create schema class of destination schema using xsd.exe tool(in BizTalk server installation folder).
->After this , a class file will be generated.
-> Create instance of this file and assign like below in expression shape.
obj.FileName=MsgIn(BTS.ReceivedFileName).
Then, in message assignment shape, assign instance to outbound message.
MsgOut=obj.
Thank you.

How to avoid zombie in biztalk?

Hi Biztalk expert!
I need find out the solution for biztalk zombie (very urgent), I have read many article about zombies, but I can't resolve problem.
I'm finding the approach to change the orchestration ( not use external tool/script as zombie management tool or WMI script).
below image is my orchestration.
any idea is good appreciated! If you can change this orchestration to resolve zombie, please give me screen shot.
sorry if my question duplicate in this forum.
Thanks in advance.

Maybe the queues would help?
It works if you process messages individually and don't have to compound some date from one message to another (like creating batch or calculate some aggregates like message counter or some amount from the message sequence). Seems your processing could be implemented
without orchestration at all, only with pipelines and maps on ports
For example if you need only an ordered delivery.
The possible design is:
Your messages go to the MSMQ queue (or ServiceBus Queue)
Send port(s) consumes messages from queue, this port is with ordered delivery on. There is no convoy orchestration and no orchestrations at all.
In this design you avoid convoy completely hence avoid the zombie problem and all problems around the singleton orchestration (the orchestration status, the complexity of the error handling).

What is the biggest stopper in the BizTalk application testing?

To me the biggest stopper is the work with the test endpoints.
Let me explain. To test BTS applicaion in isolation we have to create new test ports (or modify existed ports which is the unlikely approach of course). After tests we have to remove them. BizTalk does not provide us tooling to do this.
BizUnit does not solve this problem at all.
The one-way port replacement is simple. Usually the File test ports are good enough.
For the two-way port replacement is complex. Especially for the two-way send ports.
If ports are bind to the orchestrations, the problem is even more complex. We have to rebind ports to test ports and back.
So as result I cannot easily and fast enough create the continuous integration for BTS application. It usually evolve in a special project with unconventional parts.
What is the biggest stopper in the BizTalk application testing for you, guys?

For BTS application testing in isolation, I use multiple binding files. yes, I need to apply/reapply this different binding files for smoke testing /isolated testing and another binding for integrated testing. Its painful but helps.
