Like its predecessors, BizTalk Server 2006 R2 is focused on connecting applications, i.e., on system
workflow. A fundamental tenet of BPM, however, is that most business processes include both system
and human workflow. To address this, BizTalk Server 2006 R2 can connect to human workflows
running on the latest release of Windows SharePoint Services. Accomplished via a SharePoint
adapter, this connection lets organizations create automated business processes that include both
system workflow and human workflow. In the complex and diverse world of enterprise software today,
combining these two approaches is a requirement for many organizations.

BizTalk Server 2006 R2 Fundamentals
Having a broad grasp of the problems it addresses is the first step in understanding BizTalk Server
2006 R2. Going deeper means looking further into the mechanics of how this technology actually
works. The place to start is with the basics of message flow, illustrated in Figure 5.
2006 R2. Going deeper means looking further into the mechanics of how this technology actually
works. The place to start is with the basics of message flow, illustrated in Figure 5.
Figure 5: A message is received by a receive port, optionally processed by an orchestration, then
sent by a send port.
As the figure shows, a message is received by a receive port. Each receive port can have three
components:
components:
An adapter that knows how to communicate in a specific way;
A receive pipeline that does things such as converting the message from its native format into an
XML document, validating the
XML document, validating the
message’s digital signature, and more;
A data mapping, which transforms the message in some useful way.
The message is then delivered into a SQL Server database called the MessageBox. From here, it can
be read by an orchestration. O

rchestrations aren’t created by writing code in a language such as C#,
