Introduction

Adapters for a BizTalk server represent the fundamental foundation by which interoperability between different IT systems is possible – they’re responsible for sending and receiving messages to and from the BizTalk server and different applications.

BizTalk contains many built-in adapters for communication with external systems.  When those built-in adapters do not meet the needs of your project, some hard decisions need to be made such as whether to buy an adapter, build an adapter using the framework or use an open source adapter. There are a great post from Stephen W. Thomas that addresses this question: BizTalk Adapters: Buy, Build, or CodePlex This article is intended to be a knowledge base of all Third-Party BizTalk adapters that are available.

Adapter Description

AS1

adds secure AS1 messaging capabilities to BizTalk. Built on top of the IP*Works! EDI, the adapter allows you to easily incorporate secure EDI (EDI-INT) exchange with your current e-Business process architecture. Use AS1 to communicate EDI data, or other information such as XML documents, securely over the Internet using the SMTP/S protocol.
AS2 adds secure AS2 transport capabilities to BizTalk. Built on top of the DGI / eBusinessReady™ certified IP*Works! EDI / AS2 Engine, the adapter allows you to easily incorporate secure EDI (EDI-INT) exchange with your current e-Business process architecture.
AS3 adds secure AS3 file transfer capabilities to BizTalk. Built on top of the IP*Works! EDI, the adapter allows you to easily incorporate secure EDI (EDI-INT) exchange with your current e-Business process architecture. Use AS3 to communicate EDI data, or other information such as XML documents, securely over the Internet using the FTP/S protocol. 
AS4 adds AS4 send and receive capabilities to BizTalk Server. Using a simple application-like design, the adapter allows you to easily incorporate secure EDI (EDI-INT) exchange into your current e-Business process architecture.

 

FTPS

 

Adapter uses the FTPS protocol to transfer files to and from SSL-enabled FTP servers. To use the send adapter, you only need to supply a server to connect to, user name, and password. Then simply bind your port to a BizTalk Orchestration and the adapter will take care of the rest.
SFTP uses the SFTP protocol to transfer files to and from Secure Shell (SSH) Enabled servers. Using the adapter is identical to using the /n software FTPS Adapter, requiring only that you supply a server to connect to, user name, and password.
HTTP implements a highly configurable HTTP client that is capable of sending and receiving data to and from web servers. Support includes issuing simple GET requests as well as defining custom form and file parameters to be POSTed to server. URL defines the location to which the request is made.
RNIF can be used to send and receive RosettaNet messages. Encryption and Signing are supported, as well a variety of signature algorithms including SHA-256.
Cloud Storage  provides a simple way to upload and download files from a variety of cloud storage providers.
OFTP uses the Odette File Transfer protocol to transfer files to and from OFTP capable servers. To use the send adapter, you only need to supply a server to connect to, user name, and password. Then simply bind your port to a BizTalk Orchestration and the adapter will take care of the rest.
Credit Card Processing can be used to integrate Internet payment processing directly from within Microsoft BizTalk Server.  With the Credit Card Adapter, BizTalk can be configured to process though any of the most popular payment gateways, acting as fully functional Internet transaction processing gateway.
NAESB/GISB

 

uses the North American Energy Standards Communications (EDM) NAESB/GISB protocol to transfer files to and from capable servers. To use the send adapter, you only need to supply a server to connect to, user name, and password.
RSS

 

can be configured to retrieve RSS feeds and pull RSS items directly into the BizTalk messaging pipeline for processing.  Support for SSL and client-side certificates included for connecting to secure feeds.
Secure Shell Adapter

 

provides an easy to use adapter that extends BizTalk with SSH-secured remote command execution functionality. The Adapter uses the SSH "exec" subsystem to remotely execute commands.
Secure Email Adapter

 

provides an all-encompassing email client implementation that extends BizTalk with the ability to send and receive Emails. The Adapter uses the SMTP protocol to send email and the IMAP and POP3 protocols to fetch emails to and from any mail server over Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protected channels.
SMS Messaging (SMPP)

 

is used for sending SMS messages and alerts.  The Adapter can be easily configured to send alert notifications in response to BizTalk events. 
Paging (SNPP) is used for sending alphanumeric pages alerts.  The Adapter can be easily configured to send alert notifications in response to BizTalk events. 
Jabber Instant Messaging is a light-weight Instant Messaging client Adapter for communicating with XML based Jabber servers.  The Adapter can be orchestrated to send Instant alert notifications in response to BizTalk events, or can be used as an alternate transport for Internet message delivery. 
S3 Leverage always-on access to Amazon's online storage.  The S3 Adapter, or Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3) Integration Adapter, can be used to easily add, modify and delete buckets or individual objects stored on S3 directly from your BizTalk orchestrations.
SCP Adapter Transfer files to and from SSH servers using the Secure Copy Protocol (SCP).
LDAP Active Directory Adapter

 

Search, manage, and maintain Internet Directory (LDAP) servers including Active Directory from BizTalk. The LDAP Adapter is easy to use with straightforward operations for adding, modifying, and deleting DNs, searching, and authenticating.
PowerShell Adapter

 

Executes PowerShell scripts and returns the results.  The adapter can execute PowerShell scripts on a local PowerShell Runspace or on remote machines using the PowerShell V2 Remoting or PowerShell SSH protocols.

CData Software

LDAP Adapter

 

You can find more at Integration Software's site: http://www.integrationsoftware.se/products/biztalk-adapters/ldap-adapter/

 

This send port adapter makes it very easy to create one-way and/or solicit response (Request/Reponse) operations against LDAP Directory Services like Windows Active Directory. The simplicity comes from the stand alone Windows Client utility that helps developers quickly test the operations supported by the adapter. Operations have distinct names and are logically grouped per entity (Users, Groups, OU etc). Working with LDAP is error prone and much effort has been put into providing superior exception feedback, which will result in faster incident management, easier development and in the end less money spent on building LDAP integrations and faster time to market.

  • Seamlessly integrated into BizTalk Server

  • All X.400 protocol functions are covered
BizTalk FileResponse

You can find more at: http://www.quibiq.de/en/products/biztalk-fileresponse-adapter/

 

The QUIBIQ BizTalk FileResponse Adapter is a Two-Way-Fileadapter (WCF-Custom) which enables BizTalk to use a two-way FilePort, delivering a Response that includes the original outgoing file stream (encoded) to process the stream later in the workflow e.g. for archiving purposes (e.g. legal edi requirements in Germany). In the BizTalk standard you are not able to further process a Message in its original form, after it is created by the SendPipeline and transmitted over a File adapter port. Our Two-Way-Fileadapter solves this issue and makes the further processing of the original output message easy.

Runs under: BizTalk Server 2006R2/2009/2010/2013/2013R2
