Informatica PowerCenter support is ending. Where should your data flows go?
Informatica is mostly used for data integration (ETL), not process integration. Some flows belong on SAP Integration Suite; bulk data and analytics loads usually belong on SAP Datasphere / Business Data Cloud.

Why move now.
- Forced re-platforming of PowerCenter workloads.
- Ownership now sits with a CRM vendor.
- A chance to put each flow on the right SAP platform.
Where it lands on SAP Integration Suite.
Process integration → Cloud Integration · data pipelines → SAP Datasphere / Business Data Cloud
Complexity: Depends on volume and how much is analytics versus operational. The assessment sorts each flow into the right place.
The BOND Method, for integration.
Blueprint
Inventory and a decision per interface: move as-is, redesign or retire.
Orchestrate
A pilot wave to prove mappings, security and monitoring.
Navigate
Waves with regression testing; the old platform keeps running in parallel.
Deliver
Cutover, decommission and handover.
A finished move, not a half-way house.
- A full interface inventory.
- A costed wave plan.
- Rebuilt and tested interfaces on Integration Suite.
- Documentation and runbooks.
- The option of managed operations afterwards.
Count your interfaces before you commit.
