Technologies We Use

Biztalk Server, Biztalk ESB, .NET

Client History

The client is a government agency responsible for handling financial transactions and data exchange with other government departments. There were regulatory and security constraints. These constraints resulted in the agency unable to communicate with the other department.

A government approved third party vendor was required to handle this integration. The current setup lacked structure, visibility, and control. This setup made integrations slow, risky, and hard to maintain.

Challenges

The client faced multiple technical and operational challenges:

There was no centralized integration platform to manage services and data flow.
Microservices were poorly implemented and not aligned with a standard architecture.
Authentication and authorization were inconsistent and unreliable.
There was no central operational data store for tracking transactions.
API management was missing, which made service governance difficult.
Logging and monitoring were limited, making issue tracking slow.
Deployments took too long and often caused service downtime.
Development cycles were extended due to repeated fixes and manual effort.

Goals & Objective

They defined clear objectives for the project:

Enable secure integration between government entities through an approved third party.
Introduce a centralized integration layer.
Improve security through proper authentication and authorization.
Reduce development and deployment time.
Gain better visibility through logging, monitoring, and reporting.
Create a scalable foundation for future integrations.

Solutions

Acme One designed and implemented a service oriented architecture to address these challenges.
The solution exposed functional components. The reason for this is web services that could communicate over standard internet protocols. This allowed different systems to interact regardless of platform or technology.
A centralized BizTalk ESB solution was implemented to manage routing, transformation, and orchestration of services.
A centralized data layer was introduced to support operational tracking and reporting.
Sentinet was used as an API management gateway to control access, apply security policies, and manage service endpoints.
The approach ensured vendor independence and long term maintainability.

Implementation

The solution was delivered in structured phases:

Existing systems were reviewed and mapped into service based components.
BizTalk Server and BizTalk ESB were configured as the core integration platform.
Service orchestration and message routing were implemented.
BizTalk BAM Portal was set up to provide tracking and visibility into transactions.
Sentinet was integrated to manage APIs, authentication, and authorization.
Logging and monitoring were enabled to support operations and troubleshooting.
