To answer your question, Gentran Server for Windows does not support any
full-on web services. That said the HTTP Gateway for Gentran Server will send
and receive data via HTTP or HTTPS; however, responses are limited to standard
HTTP success and failure codes.

Hello Majid,
MS BizTalk is a very robust tool for B2B messaging. Since it is based on
the .NET platform, you have the full power of the .NET programming
languages available to you. For data transformation you have a visual
mapper that is powered by XSLT. You are also able to create maps directly
in XSLT and call them from within your application. For data flows that
require complex logic, you have a visual tool called Orchestrations - this
is a major feature of BizTalk. There is also a Business Rules Engine that
can be used on its own to enforce business rules based on content or
context. There is a tool to monitor business activity (called BAM). BAM
allows you to track all of your POs or Invoices for example. BAM is a user
friendly way for business users to monitor message activity. You can also
monitor server health with SCOM (there are specific configurations for
BizTalk). For high traffic sites you can take advantage of multiple nodes
and MS Clustering/Load Balancing. And of course BizTalk has built in EDI
functionality (X12 and Edifact). You have access to several line of
business adapters - SAP, SWIFT for example. Communication choices are
flexible: AS2, HTTP, WCF, FTP, Web Service...
The thing is that BizTalk is not a 'turn key' solution. It definitely
requires someone familiar with .NET and MS SQL Server to get it up and
running.Compared to other tools I have used for EDI/B2B, BizTalk is more
complex but in the end quite beneficial to the enterprise.
