NSYNC BizTalk:Migrator

For you, replacing the legacy landscape is not just an IT task, but a strategic decision. Many companies shy away from this step because traditional migration projects are considered lengthy, risky, and cost-intensive. The NSYNC BizTalk:Migrator makes this complexity manageable – as a comprehensive Migration as a Service.

Technology meets methodology: The NSYNC success formula. The strength of our solution lies in the interplay of product and experience. The NSYNC BizTalk:Migrator is the technological USP that reduces the technical implementation effort many times over compared to manual migration or using the Microsoft BizTalk Migrator. This advantage is completed by our over 20 years of expertise as BizTalk and AIS specialists.

We do not simply migrate code; rather, we provide holistic support following a proven, standardized methodology: from initial analysis and structured planning to automated implementation and post-go-live support. In contrast to conventional tools, the NSYNC BizTalk:Migrator generates not isolated fragments, but fully functioning interfaces from end to end—from reception to dispatch. We transform your entire integration logic, including pipelines, mappings, and orchestrations, into .NET 10 code for your on-premises or Azure cloud integration environment. The result: A fully integrated setup with optional process monitoring that is productive and transparent from day one.

We eliminate the risks of a manual transformation. This gives you not only a technically clean migration, but a modernized integration architecture that makes your IT sustainably more efficient and agile.

The BizTalk:Migrator is offered for use by NSYNC.

Benefits of NSYNC BizTalk:Migrator

The NSYNC BizTalk:Migrator addresses the specific challenges involved in replacing your legacy integration server. Choose your role to learn how we can make the transition to Azure Integration Services (AIS) or your on-premises solution more efficient and secure for you:

Support for Microsoft BizTalk Server is ending. The BizTalk:Migrator offers you a predictable, step-by-step transformation into the Azure cloud instead of an unpredictable "big bang" project.

Your added value at a glance:

  • More than just software: Your success is our process. In addition to the migrator, you benefit from our over 20 years of experience in data integration. We plan your project in standardized phases, minimize downtime risks through proven migration paths, and offer comprehensive managed support after commissioning upon request.
  • Ready-to-use end-to-end interfaces: We do not deliver isolated fragments, but fully functional interfaces – from ingestion to dispatch. Including infrastructure setup and optional process monitoring, you can put your solutions into operation productively and transparently from day one.
  • Highest degree of automation & time savings: With an automation rate of 80–95% when transferring your integration logic, we massively shorten the project duration compared to manual migrations or the Microsoft Migrator. What used to take weeks, we port today in just a few days.
  • Quality & consistency: Our rule-based, standardized transfer guarantees consistent, easily maintainable code that strictly follows the target architecture. Manual interventions are limited exclusively to your professionally desired adjustments.
  • Predictability instead of risk: No risky rash actions. You transfer your integration architecture in a controlled and iterative manner – for example, interface by interface or data object by data object.
  • Future-proofing & operational security: You break away from expiring BizTalk licenses and migrate to a modern, cloud-native AIS environment within your own Azure subscription. The optional connection to our professional process monitoring (SYMON N:TERFACE DPM) guarantees maximum transparency during ongoing operations.

We eliminate repetitive manual work without forcing a proprietary "black box" upon you. The BizTalk:Migrator analyzes your existing schemas, maps, orchestrations, pipelines, and ports, and transforms them into a modern, modular architecture.

Your technical added value:

  • Technological sovereignty instead of a black box: We rely on full transparency. Our tool generates clean .NET 10 code that you can deploy and use productively in your environments from your source code repository using CI/CD pipelines (Azure DevOps / GitHub). You retain full control over the architecture and can independently optimize the migrated services at any time.
  • Maximum architectural freedom: You decide whether to migrate to Azure or on-premises. In Azure, you choose per interface whether Logic Apps or high-performance Azure Function Apps represent the architecturally best choice.
  • Traceability and versioning: The results of all automation steps (specification, planning, code generation) are version-controlled, diff-able, Git-storable source code.
  • Interactive transformation: Use our interface designer for the visual reorganization of the migrated topology.
  • Platform as Code: Service bus deployment logic and infrastructure configurations are included directly and can be immediately integrated into your Azure subscription.

A migration is only as good as its subsequent operation. With the NSYNC BizTalk:Migrator, you lay the foundation for a highly scalable, transparent, and easily monitored integration environment.

Your operational added value:

  • Operation in your own environment: Maximum data security. All resources run on-premises or within your own Azure subscription. There is no export to third-party environments.
  • Secure parallel operation: Incremental migration allows for a smooth transition. Controlled parallel operation of BizTalk and the new integration environment guarantees stability throughout the entire transformation.
  • Seamless monitoring & troubleshooting: Through the optional integration with SYMON N:TERFACE DPM, you retain full control over every process during troubleshooting at all times.

 

Core Features

  • Complete mapping of integration logic: The BizTalk:Migrator is more than a conversion tool. Systems, entities, schemas, interfaces, mappings, and workflows are fully mapped in an Azure or on-premises integration environment (optionally supplemented by components such as NSYNC Integration:Toolbox - KRM).
  • Code generation (.NET 10): Ready-to-use C#/.NET solution derived from existing BizTalk artifacts. Structural elements are rule-based, while complex mappings and workflows (processings, components, pipelines) are AI-supported.
  • Runtime design pattern: Transitioning the BizTalk MessageBox into a pub/sub architecture.
  • External connectivity: External HTTP interfaces via Azure API Management, for example; on-premises file exchange (file ↔ blob) via NSYNC Sky:Port.
  • Interactive interface designer: Graphical preparation of the migrated topology for the logical reorganization of interfaces—available as both a Windows desktop and web UI.
  • Monitoring & deployment: Automatically built-in monitoring hooks (SYMON N:TERFACE DPM) as well as generated deployment pipelines for GitHub and Azure DevOps.

    Strategic Migration Paths - Your Path to the Future

    The phase-out of Microsoft BizTalk Server does not require a hasty, knee-jerk reaction, but rather a well-founded decision. With the NSYNC BizTalk:Migrator, you rely on an automated, low-risk transition into the new world—whether it's an on-premises solution or the Azure cloud. The NSYNC BizTalk:Migrator generates end-to-end functioning interfaces—from reception to dispatch. You receive a fully integrated solution, including infrastructure setup and optional process monitoring, that makes your interfaces transparent in productive operation from day one.

    To master the end of BizTalk securely and efficiently, we offer you strategic freedom: you decide individually per interface which migration path best suits your requirements. Whether it's rapid rehosting, automated transformation, or comprehensive process optimization—you retain control over the pace and direction of your modernization.

    Lift & Shift: Container-based Rehosting

    Ideal for proven XSLT mappings whose functional integrity you want to preserve one-to-one. We encapsulate these components in containers that run natively in Azure. You immediately eliminate dependency on outdated hardware and BizTalk server infrastructure without risking the stability of your mappings. The environment is modernized, the core remains untouched.

    Lift & Adapt: Transformation

    We transfer your BizTalk artifacts directly into the new integration environment. In the process, we transform legacy XSLT mappings into high-performance .NET code and translate the BizTalk logic for the new integration environment—in the case of Azure, into scalable Logic Apps or Function Apps. You receive a future-proof solution that exactly mirrors the behavior of your legacy system while unlocking the full scalability, security, and agility of the new integration environment.

    Lift & Optimize: Modernization & Process Update

    Use the migration step as a strategic upgrade: We not only transform the logic (XSLT to .NET / AIS) but simultaneously optimize the underlying process flows. You actively and sustainably eliminate technical debt. The result is a high-performance, low-maintenance cloud-native integration solution that makes your IT landscape more agile in the long term.
