BizTalk 2020 mainstream support

The Biztalk team announces the addition of three years to the Mainstream Support period for the Biztalk Server 2020 release.  This will extend the mainstream support period from April 8, 2025 to April 11, 2028.  This will allow customers to obtain security updates, request non-security updates, and incident support for an additional 3 years past the original end of Mainstream Support.  This change will not affect the overall end of support date of April 9, 2030.  We believe this extension of the mainstream support period is the best route to support our Biztalk customers.  While we encourage customers to consider cloud solutions in Azure as an alternative to Biztalk, we are still committed to supporting our existing customers.      

 

This will also extend the Mainstream Support for Host Integration Server 2020, as it is a supplemental product to the Biztalk Server license.

    Yes, I agree that seeing the extended support is good.  I would also like clarification on whether or not any new versions of BizTalk, or versions/updates to support newer versions of Visual Studio, SQL Server, Windows Server, etc. will be released in the future.

    Good to hear that support is going to be here for a long time.  I assume though this means that there are no plans to release any new versions of BizTalk server, and the AIS bundle is really the only option for new development?
