For some time during which I didn’t contribute to new articles on TechNet Wiki, I was only systematically adding new errors in the article BizTalk: List of Errors and Warnings, Causes and Solutions.
There are a number of open-source projects: pipelines, adapters, and functoids that can aid you as a BizTalk developer. These resources are not out of the box, as offered by BizTalk Server, like WCF Publishing Wizard or BizTalk Server Adapter Pack (which provides connectivity to SAP, Siebel, SQL, and much more).
📝 One-Minute Brief
This post provides a curated directory of open-source resources hosted on TechNet Wiki for BizTalk Server developers. Sandro Pereira shares links to essential community-driven projects, including custom adapters, functoids, and pipeline components. These resources, contributed by MVPs and community experts, aim to speed up development by providing tools and fixes beyond the standard BizTalk out-of-the-box features.
Through the internet, you can find numerous open-source projects created by people from the community, Microsoft, Microsoft Community Contributors (MCC), and Microsoft® Most Valuable Professionals (MVP), which can help you speed up the development process of our projects.
We can find in TechNet Wiki three articles describing a list of several projects:
- BizTalk Server: List of Custom Adapters: created by me, this article contains a list of open-source adapters that are available.
- BizTalk: List of Custom Functoids: created by Charlie Mott, in which I recently contributed with new content, this article contains a list of custom Functoids that are available
- BizTalk: List of Custom Pipeline Components: created by Charlie Mott, in which I recently contributed with new content, this article contains a list of custom Pipeline Components that are available
While the TechNet Wiki was once the heart of community-driven knowledge for BizTalk Server, Microsoft has officially retired the platform. Most of its technical content has been migrated to Microsoft Learn, while open-source projects have moved to GitHub, and community discussions now reside on Microsoft Q&A
