BizTalk Adapter Pack v2 CTP

BizTalk Adapter Pack team has released a CTP. This is the 5th CTP and the first one available publicly for everyone to try. The specific enhancements in this CTP are mostly to the OracleDB adapter(included in the BAPv1) to which we added features like support for polling stored procedures and composite operations. We also added 64 bit support for the Oracle EBS adapter.In addition we have addressed some feedback we got from the other adapters .

 

To re-iterate here is the complete list of features BAPv2 is adding . The downloads are available at the connect site for public download(requires sign up with live id)
