To build a solid BizTalk solution, deploy a robust environment, and keep it running smoothly you sometimes need to broaden your spectrum, explore all possibilities, and choose the best solution for your purpose. By following the recipes in this book you will gain required knowledge and succeed in your implementation. With BizTalk Server 2010 Cookbook, you can leverage and hone your skills. More than 50 recipes will guide you in implementing BizTalk solutions, setting up a robust and well performing BizTalk environment, and choosing the right solution for monitoring it. As a developer or administrator you greatly benefit from taking these recipes to work. In this book a developer and administrator will see how to deploy, build, and maintain a BizTalk environment. How to apply patterns for robust orchestrations, messaging and testing. Administrators will learn to set up an environment using Microsoft best practices and tools to deliver a robust, performing and durable BizTalk environment. Besides setting up their environments administrators can also decide through a number of recipes how to monitor and maintain the environment.

Routing using the resequencer messages in an orchestration


The resequencer pattern is one of the Enterprise Application Integration (EAI) message routing patterns like the previously described splitter pattern. Many EAI patterns can be found through the Enterprise Application Integration site http://www.eaipatterns.com/. The resequencer pattern can be used to collect and reorder messages, so that they can be published in a specified order. An orchestration receives a number of messages in a different order and they are reordered within the orchestration. Basically, the orchestration acts as a buffer to store out-of-sequence messages until a complete sequence is obtained. These messages are then sent through a port that preserves the order.

Getting ready

Create a solution in Visual Studio 2010. For reference, you can download the source code (BTS.Cookbook.ResequencerPattern) belonging to this chapter.

How to do it...

A resequencer pattern can be implemented as follows:
