Your opportunity is just beginning.

Make your move now to avoid risk and enable scalable integration, innovation, and AI-ready capabilities with a partner who knows the way. 

Together, we move towards a future we can all trust.

 

It’s time to take the next step

BizTalk is approaching end-of-life in 2028, and the transition to a modern integration platform doesn’t happen overnight. By starting now, you reduce risk as well as open the door to faster innovation, scalable automation, and AI-readiness.

Let us help you make the move with clarity, control, and business value from day one. 

In the meeting, we help you:

Understand your current integration landscape
Such as key dependencies, risks and constraints in your existing setup.
Clarify your path to Azure
What makes sense to migrate, modernize or redesign and in what order.
Link technology to business value
How integration choices affect scalability, cost, resilience and future capabilities.
Get an initial time and cost estimate
A realistic, experience‑based view of effort, timeline and investment.
Define clear next steps
Based on your systems, priorities and ambitions.

A clear roadmap through a complex transition

For many organizations, BizTalk has been a reliable backbone for integration for years. But Microsoft has confirmed that BizTalk Server 2020 is the final release. As support phases out and business demands increase, legacy integration platforms increasingly limit what is possible.  

Moving to Azure is an opportunity to modernize your integration landscape, reduce technical debt, accelerate your cloud journey, and create a foundation for scalable automation and AI‑enabled capabilities. To succeed, you need a clear understanding of your current environment, which integrations actually drive business value, and how Azure Integration Services can support a more flexible and resilient architecture. 

This is where many organizations hesitate. Not because they doubt Azure, but because the path forward feels complex and uncertain. With Epical, there is no trial and error. We know the integration landscape, we know BizTalk, and we know Azure. We guide you with proven methods and experience, taking you from where you are today to a modern, future‑ready integration platform with confidence and control.

“From the start, we knew what we needed to achieve and were looking for a long-term partner with the right expertise to help us move beyond our legacy on-prem solution. Choosing Epical has not only enabled that transition - it’s also delivered real, measurable value. One tangible result is that we’ve been able to close an entire data center, which means significant cost savings, environmental benefits, and a clear step into the future of scalable, cloud-based infrastructure.”
