Sample Architecture: FTP Adapter

This topic describes the sample architecture when you use the FTP adapter to send and receive messages.

The following figure shows the components of the BizTalk Server sample architecture when you use the FTP adapter.

Figure 1 Sample architecture that shows FTP adapter

Sample architecture for FTP adapter

This sample architecture contains the components as discussed in following sections.

Perimeter network―Internet

When you use the FTP adapter, there is an FTP server in the Internet perimeter network.

Note

The FTP server can also be located outside your environment—in the partner's network, or hosted by a third-party independent software vendor (ISV).

Perimeter network―intranet

Companies commonly use the FTP protocol for Internet-based communications, and therefore you do not need any servers in the intranet perimeter network to support this scenario.

E-Business domain

The servers in this domain are:

  • BizTalk Server (processing, FTP adapter, and tracking hosts). This server has an installation of the BizTalk Server runtime, and has instances of the hosts that contain the BizTalk orchestrations, pipelines, Business Rule Engine, and other business processes. This is where the BizTalk Server ports, receive locations, pipelines, maps, schemas, and assemblies are located to receive, route, process, and send messages. This server also has a host instance of a host that supports tracking of health monitoring and business monitoring data. Additionally, this host contains instances of the host that runs the FTP send and receive adapters.

    Note

    As your performance needs increase, you can add more BizTalk Servers to your environment for host instances of your processing hosts. For more information about how to configure BizTalk Server for high availability, see Planning for High Availability.
