About the client:
A leading Australian aged care and community services organization with over 100 years of history and a national presence. The organization supports over a million people annually across multiple services and locations, making reliable data integration critical to its operations.
The Challenge:
The organisation’s integration platform was built on Microsoft BizTalk Server, which had served the business for many years but was becoming increasingly difficult to maintain and scale.
Key challenges included the following:
• Legacy integration architecture is limiting scalability.
• Increasing complexity in maintaining BizTalk-based integrations.
• Critical dependencies across HR systems and directory services.
• Need to align with the organisation’s broader cloud strategy on Microsoft Azure.
• Requirement to migrate integrations with minimal disruption to live operations.
Our Approach:
Cygnus Consulting partnered with the client to migrate key integrations from BizTalk to Azure while maintaining operational continuity.
The engagement included:
Integration Assessment:
Review of the existing BizTalk codebase, documentation, and integration dependencies to determine the optimal migration approach.
Azure Integration Implementation:
Design and development of Azure-based integration workflows to replace BizTalk components.
Migration of Key Integrations:

DevOps Enablement:
Implementation of CI/CD pipelines to automate build and deployment processes across environments.
Deployment Support:

Business Outcomes:
The migration established a modern cloud-based integration foundation.
