Overview

SQL Server Integration Services is Microsoft's ETL engine, bundled with SQL Server. It is capable but tied to SQL Server and Windows (or the Azure-SSIS Integration Runtime), its .dtsx packages are hard to review and version, and it was built for batch. Integrate.io is fully managed and cloud-native, and our migration tool converts your data flows and connection managers so you leave the package-and-server model behind.

What's changing

What SQL Server 2025 changes for SSIS

SSIS still ships with SQL Server 2025, but Microsoft is trimming it. Integration Services 32-bit mode and the legacy Integration Services Service are deprecated, and the Attunity change data capture (CDC) components and the Microsoft Connector for Oracle are no longer included. If your packages rely on any of these, a SQL Server upgrade means reworking them anyway, which makes it a natural moment to move off SSIS.

How we migrate you off SSIS

The migration tool does the mechanical work, our Solution Engineers do the rest.

  1. 1

    Assess

    We inventory your SSIS setup from an export or its configuration, so nothing is missed before the move.

  2. 2

    Map

    Every SSIS component and connection is matched to its Integrate.io equivalent.

  3. 3

    Convert

    The migration tool rebuilds your jobs and translates the logic automatically. Anything it cannot translate with confidence is flagged for a Solution Engineer.

  4. 4

    Validate

    We run both platforms in parallel and compare outputs before you commit.

  5. 5

    Cut over

    Your current setup keeps running until the new pipelines are proven, then you switch over with a Solution Engineer alongside you.

Why teams leave SSIS

Tied to SQL Server and Windows

Running SSIS means maintaining SQL Server, SQL Server Agent jobs, and Windows servers (or an Azure-SSIS runtime), plus the expertise to keep them alive. Multi-cloud and modern warehouses are an awkward fit.

Packages are hard to version

The .dtsx format is verbose XML that is painful to diff and review, so changes are risky and hard to audit.

Batch-first design

SSIS was designed for scheduled batch loads. Real-time and cloud-first workloads require workarounds.

What transfers, and what we finish by hand

The tool is designed to flag anything it cannot translate with confidence rather than guess, so a Solution Engineer gets a clear worklist. How much converts automatically depends on your export and how your jobs are built, and a free dry run shows you before you commit.

The tool converts automatically

  • Data flow tasks and their transformations map to Integrate.io components.
  • Connection managers are parsed and wired into pipeline connections.
  • Control flow and package structure are rebuilt into a runnable pipeline.

What our Solution Engineers finish

  • Custom Script Tasks (C# / VB.NET), which are flagged for a Solution Engineer to rebuild.
  • Package configurations and environment variables.
  • Any component the report marks as low-confidence for review.

Integrate.io vs SSIS

Integrate.io SSIS

Pricing model

Flat $1,999/month, unlimited data, pipelines, and connectors.

Bundled with SQL Server licensing, plus the servers to run it.

Migration help

Automated converter plus a white-glove Solution Engineer team. We do it for you.

Manual rebuild in Visual Studio / SSDT.

Ease of use

Visual pipeline builder, with SQL and Python when you need them.

Visual designer, but SQL Server and Windows expertise required.

Deployment

Fully managed cloud, nothing to run or maintain.

On-premises SQL Server, or the Azure-SSIS Integration Runtime, still package-based.

How long it takes

Package conversion is automated up front, and most SSIS migrations cut over within one to three weeks.

Free dry run

See what converts before you commit

Share a sample of your SSIS setup and we will run it through the migration tool and send back a migration report: what converts automatically, what a Solution Engineer finishes, and a scoped plan. No commitment.

Is SSIS being discontinued?

SSIS is still supported and ships with SQL Server 2025, but Microsoft has deprecated 32-bit mode and the legacy Integration Services Service, and removed the Attunity CDC components and the Microsoft Connector for Oracle. Teams move off it because it is tied to SQL Server and Windows, its packages are hard to version, and it was built for batch rather than cloud-first data movement.

Do my data flows and connection managers transfer?

Yes. The migration tool parses your .dtsx packages, maps the data flow tasks and transformations to Integrate.io components, and wires your connection managers into pipeline connections. Custom Script Tasks are flagged for rebuild.

Do I still need a Windows server after migrating?

No. Integrate.io is fully managed and cloud-native, so there are no Windows servers or SQL Server Agent jobs to maintain after you cut over.
