After a couple of months of hard work (mainly in the evenings 
) we are very proud to announce the beta release of the PowerShell provider for BizTalk.
The setup (and source) can be downloaded from codeplex.
I hope BizTalk developers and administrators will find this a useful addition to their toolbox.
In the coming weeks we will provide more information on usage and show some tips.

Maxime wrote a nice post to introduce our PowerShell Provider for BizTalk. You can find it here.
There is also a link to a great presentation that they (Michel and Maxime) did at the French BizTalk User Group. The presentation is in the French language. For me that means I had to use the translation dictionary a lot 
.

A couple of months ago I joined with Michel Hubert and Maxime Labelle to build the next version of the Powershell provider for BizTalk. (Also see my earlier posts here and here).
We´re currently very close to releasing the first beta of this new version.
The provider now uses a separate object layer for BizTalk management tasks. The layer is called ‘BizTalk Factory Management Automation’. This new architecture allows us to focus on provider functionality in the provider codebase and delegate all BizTalk related stuff to the object layer.
Nice things:
The object layer is already in Beta and can be downloaded from here. Samples and instructions on how to use this will be provided later.
A big compliment to Maxime who is mainly responsible for the object layer and did almost all of the coding!

A couple of weeks ago I was contacted by Maxime Labelle and Michel Hubert (BizTalk MVP) who accidentally found my PowerShell provider for BizTalk. The funny coincidence is that they had just finished their own version of the provider without knowing about the existence of mine.
I didn’t take much time for us to decide to join forces. We are currently in the process of merging the two source bases and planning for the next release.
I’m very happy to have the chance to work together with Maxime and Michel on this project. I also think the merge brings benefits like higher (code) quality and higher release frequency.
This next release will be the one and only PowerShell provider for BizTalk (I hope) and will be available on codeplex. My version will be downloadable from here until the first joined effort release is available.

I wrote a small article that shows how to create BizTalk applications using my PowerShell provider for BizTalk. You can find it here.
