And once again, the Azure Logic Apps team is looking to learn about how you are using BizTalk Server artifacts, this time: what kind of BizTalk Server Custom Pipeline Components are you using in your Enterprise Applications to better understand how Microsoft can best address future integration needs within the Azure Integration Services platform, and maybe bring identical capabilities into it.
Whether you are considering migrating to Azure Integration Services in the future or staying on-premises for a couple more years (or forever), this is ANOTHER great opportunity to provide feedback to the Microsoft Integration team and positively influence the outcome of new features.
📝 One-Minute Brief
Microsoft’s Azure Logic Apps team is gathering feedback from BizTalk Server customers about how they use custom pipeline components. The goal is to understand real‑world usage, challenges, and expectations so the team can prioritize future Azure Integration Services capabilities—potentially bringing BizTalk‑like pipeline features to the cloud. This survey is a chance for BizTalk customers and consultants to directly influence Azure’s roadmap.
So, for customers who use or have used BizTalk Server, this survey is for you! If you are a consulting company providing services to clients using BizTalk Server, this survey is for you as well! The Azure Logic Apps team would love to hear from you!!! They want to enter and poke around your brain, your world, and gather all the feedback regarding BizTalk Server:
- How many Custom Pipeline Components do you have?
- Why do you use Custom Pipeline Components?
- Within your Custom Pipeline Components, do you leverage message streams?
- For messages that are processed by your Custom Pipeline Components, what is the largest file you process?
- What is your comfort level with the Custom Pipeline Components that your organization has?
- As we consider how best to support Custom Pipeline Component functionality (capabilities) in Azure Integration Services, is there anything you would like us to consider?
Once again, don’t complain in the future about the lack of features that will suit you better. The team is interested in how best to support customers transitioning integration workloads to Azure Integration Services (AIS)… You are not going to move to Azure? The survey does not take that long to respond to, so if you are using BizTalk Server, try to respond nevertheless; by doing so, you can help other customers on their journey.
