Bridges in BizTalk Services
Basic building block for building your integration platform
A Bridge is a single message processing unit with 3 parts: Sources: From where the messages originatePipeline: Which processes the messages [Flat file, XML, Pass-through]Destinations: Where the messages are sent to
PropertyAny interesting data in your message• Defined in the Enrich stage of a
pipeline• Can be tracked as part of message
processing
Property source could be from:• Transport headers/properties• A part of the message (specified using
XPath)• An external data lookup• System properties
Use in Filter Rules/Actions for routing or in Maps
Supported destinations auto-convert properties into meta data
Transformation
Graphical UI tool to define your map
OOB Support for more than 35 operationsSupports custom XSLT and inline C# scripts
Test the map locally and validate the output as well
Routing
Rule based routingMessage delivered to first matching destination
Rules use the same SQL92 syntax used in Service Bus Topic/Subscription Rules
Route Actions may be used to write destination specific headers
