Informatica to Microsoft Fabric Migration Assessment

MAQ Software's Informatica to Microsoft Fabric Migration Assessment transitions ETL pipelines from Informatica PowerCenter or IDMC to Microsoft Fabric's cloud-native architecture — automating metadata extraction, logic mapping, and conversion planning for a seamless, low-risk migration.

$0 — Microsoft-funded: Delivered at no cost to your organization. MAQ Software utilizes Microsoft funding (subject to availability) to cover for the assessment.

Why organizations are moving away from Informatica

• Cost — Licensing, infrastructure, and upgrade cycles consume a large portion of the data budget before any new work begins.
• Overhead — On-premise environments require constant maintenance, leaving less capacity for building new capabilities.
• Latency — Batch-based processing means your reports are never truly current — a gap that widens as the business expects faster answers.
• Compliance — Fragmented metadata and pipeline execution make data lineage hard to trace, creating audit exposure every reporting cycle.
• Integration — Power BI, Copilot, and Azure do not connect easily to Informatica — tools you are already paying for cannot reach the data they need.
• Scale — Every additional year adds more mappings, more embedded logic, and a larger program to eventually unwind.

Key capabilities

• Automated mapping discovery — Full inventory of Informatica mappings, transformations, and dependencies without manual effort
• Compatibility analysis — Systematic evaluation of each mapping's complexity and Fabric connector compatibility
• Automated conversion — Mappings converted to Fabric Data Pipelines
• Unsupported feature remediation — Features without a Fabric equivalent are identified early with alternative patterns provided
• Built-in validation — Migrated pipelines tested against original business logic before go-live
• Migration roadmap — Prioritized plan with effort estimates, timeline, and cloud-first Fabric architecture

How it works

1. Assess — Automated scan of your Informatica environment for mappings, dependencies, and Fabric compatibility
2. Plan — Migration roadmap with cost, effort, and remediation strategies for unsupported features
3. Design — Define your Microsoft Fabric architecture aligned to your governance and compliance requirements
4. Migrate — Proof of concept migration with documentation of logic and component mapping
5. Validate — End-to-end testing before production cutover
6. Go-live — Final plan, cloud-first architecture blueprint, and handover documentation

Business impact

• Eliminate months of manual mapping analysis with automated discovery
• Make migration seamless through structured validation
• Cut licensing and infrastructure costs by consolidating onto Microsoft Fabric
• Zero cost to start — fully Microsoft-funded
