The definition of application varies by version.
[quote:3269a7cb16]In BizTalk 2006, an application is a logical grouping of all the BizTalk design-time artifacts (schemas, maps, pipelines, orchestrations), messaging components (receive ports, receive locations, send ports) and other related items such as policies that comprise an integrated business process. BizTalk applications simplify the deployment and management of BizTalk based solutions.[/quote:3269a7cb16]
In previous versions an application is not as well defined. The concept of Biztalk Application is a new and welcome change in Biztalk 2006.

An application can be almost anything you decide.
In the case of your invoice example I would group all invoice related interchanges into one application. So the inbound 850 + response 997 + passing the invoice to an internal application + potentially matching against the purchasing system….You can deploy everything into one application if you wish, i.e. invoicing, purchase orders, integrating the CRM and Financials system, etc Although you would soon regret this as management would become very difficult.
And yes you pay by processor (although a hyperthreading CPU counts as 1)

Hi,
I am preparing to purchase Biztalk for my company but I have a few questions. I notice there’s a few different versions, with one of the differences being the amount of ‘applications’
Can anyone here with Biztalk experience relate to me what an application is? Preferably in terms of Biztalk for EDI usage? It appears the standard version allows for 10 applications. I want to make sure we purchase the correct version.
Also, when purchasing 2006, you need to purchase one license for every processor, correct?
Thanks!

[url]http://www.microsoft.com/biztalk/2006/howtobuy/faq.mspx[/url][/quote:58ee0f3c92]Yeah, i’ve read that many times.
Would it make sense to equate an application to a map used for an EDI trading partner? Meaning – 1 application for an inbound 850, 1 for an outbound 997, etc?
It’s hard to decide which version one needs when the details are so vague. Thats why i’m trying to get some real world examples, as oppose to MS & their general descriptions.
Also – you pay per processor right? If i have a 2 proc server, i’m gonna need 2 licenses?
