BizTalk Server 2010 Beta: Enhanced FTP adapter with FTPS support on BizTalk Hotrod

This is the fourth in a series of posts on the new features included in BizTalk Server 2010 Beta.

Even though new message transmission protocols and standards like the ones supported by WCF are becoming the first choice for data exchange nowadays, the File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is still very popular. FTP has been supported by BizTalk Server since its first edition. Now with BizTalk Server 2010 Microsoft have also extended it with three important new features:

• Secure FTP support
• Downloading read-only files
• Atomic file transfer for the ASCII mode

I am pleased to say the full article is featured in the latest BizTalk Hotrod magazine issue (Issue 10 Q2 2010). Download it, check out the article and other great articles in the issue and post any feedback here. Enjoy!
