A simple understanding of Biztalk 2004

Who would have believed that XML, such a seemingly trivial technology, could revolutionize an industry? It may have seemed like a long shot in the beginning, but the XML aficionados saw something special and pragmatic right away—a sort of duct tape for the world's information systems. But not all developers felt this way. Some were disappointed by the lack of tool support that would bring XML to life.

Given its place today, however, I don't think anyone could say that XML was all hype. It has revolutionized the way we think about distributed computing, given birth to Web services and service orientation, and continually spawns newer, better tools. One such tool, BizTalk^® Server 2004, is poised to finally bring some of XML's benefits to the masses by providing some long-awaited magic.

What Do You Want to Do with Visual Basic or Visual C#?

When designing your application, you may need help choosing between different technologies or approaches. This topic summarizes the choices and provides links to more information about rapid application development (RAD) with Visual Basic or C#. For more information about which language in Visual Studio to use, see Programming Languages.

What Do You Want to Do with Visual Basic or Visual C#?

Create a New Application

• Application - for help deciding between Windows Forms and Web Forms, see Windows Forms and Web Forms Recommendations
• Control - for more information, see Control Authoring for Windows Forms or Web User Controls and Web Custom Controls

• Command-line application - for details, see Console Application Template
• Windows service (formerly known as an "NT service") - a long-running Windows executable - for details, see Windows Service Applications

• XML Web service - XML Web services are applications that can exchange interoperable messages in a loosely coupled environment, using standard protocols such as HTTP, XML, XSD, SOAP and WSDL. XML Web services can be accessed from a Web application, a Windows desktop application, or another XML Web service - for details, see Programming the Web with XML Web Services
• .NET component - for details, see Component Authoring

For a step-by-step example, see Walkthrough: Creating a Distributed Application

For details, see Designing Distributed Applications

If you are targeting the browser on a cell phone, PDA (personal digital assistant), or pager, then use Mobile Web Forms - for details, see Creating ASP.NET Mobile Web Applications

Otherwise, use Web Forms - for details see Web Forms Pages

If you ...

• Are navigating between multiple, discrete tables of results ...
• Are manipulating data from multiple sources (for example, from different databases, from XML files, spreadsheets, and so on, all in the same dataset) ...
• Are exchanging data with other applications ...
• Are reusing the same set of rows and intend to cache them (for example, sorting, searching, and filtering cached results) ...
• Are doing a lot of processing per row ...
• Are manipulating the data using XML operations such as XML transforms or XPath ...
• Want ease of programming ...

Then use a dataset - for details, see ADO.NET Datasets

Otherwise, use direct access (data commands and data readers) - for details, see Performing Database Operations Directly.

For example, you would use data commands and data readers for:

• Performing DDL commands
• Performing updates or deletes based on a selection criteria
• Programmatically inserting records that are not based on user interaction
• Calling stored procedures to execute logic inside the server
• Retrieving scalar values from the database
• Processing a set of results in a forward only manner without updating and without caching the results
• Processing a set of results too large to fit in memory

For details, see Web Data Access Strategy Recommendations

For help deciding between the different types of server controls, see ASP.NET Server Controls Recommendations

• Web server controls - for details, see ASP.NET Server Controls by Function
• HTML server controls - for details, see ASP.NET Server Controls by Function (scroll down in the topic)
• Create your own server control - for details, see Web User Controls and Web Custom Controls

XML Web services are applications that can exchange interoperable messages in a loosely coupled environment, using standard protocols such as HTTP, XML, XSD, SOAP and WSDL. An XML Web service can be accessed from desktop applications (Windows Forms), Web applications, or other XML Web services. For details, see Programming the Web with XML Web Services

To send or receive a set of results to or from an XML Web service, use a dataset - for details, see ADO.NET Datasets

To access data within the logic of an XML Web service where that data is not being returned to the caller. . .

If you ...

• Are navigating between multiple, discrete tables of results...
• Are manipulating data from multiple sources (for example, from different databases, from XML files, spreadsheets, and so on, all in the same dataset) ...
• Are exchanging data with other applications ...
• Are reusing the same set of rows and intend to cache them (for example, sorting, searching, and filtering cached results) ...
• Are doing a lot of processing per row ...
• Are manipulating the data using XML operations such as XML transforms or XPath ...
• Want ease of programming ...

• Calling stored procedures to execute logic inside the server
• Retrieving scalar values from the database
• Processing a set of results in a forward only manner without updating and without caching the results
• Processing a set of results too large to fit in memory

Use Windows Forms - for details, see Creating Windows Applications

If you ...

• Are performing DDL commands ...
• Are calling stored procedures to execute logic inside the server ...
• Are retrieving scalar values from the database ...
• Are processing a set of results in a forward-only manner without displaying, updating, or caching the results ...
• Are processing a set of results too large to fit in memory ...

Then use direct access (data commands and data readers) - for details, see Performing Database Operations Directly

Otherwise, use a dataset - for details, see ADO.NET Datasets.

For example, you would use a dataset if you:

• Are binding results to a form to let the user view, insert, update, or delete records
• Are navigating between multiple tables of results
• Are manipulating data from multiple sources (for example, from different databases, from XML files, spreadsheets, and so on, all in the same dataset)
• Are exchanging data with other applications
• Are reusing the same set of rows (for example, sorting, searching, and filtering retrieved results)
• Are manipulating the data using XML operations such as XML transforms or XPath
• Want ease of programming

• Windows Forms controls - for help choosing between the different controls, see Windows Forms Controls by Function
• Inherit from an existing Windows Forms control (to expand its functionality), inherit directly from the control - for an example, see Walkthrough: Inheriting from a Windows Forms Control with Visual Basic .NET
• Custom controls - for details, see Control Authoring for Windows Forms
