Spidersilk Software offers custom, complete and flexible integration solutions (EDI/X12/BizTalk), including any and all of your integration design, implementation and administration needs. While we can accommodate and work with a variety of programs, products and partners (kind of the point of integration, huh?), we specialize in Microsoft BizTalk Server and related technologies, having expertise and experience planning, installing (including seamless upgrades), developing and maintaining BizTalk projects with all versions from 2006 R2 through 2016 inclusive (2006 R2/2009/2010/2013 R2/2016 [and if you’re still using BizTalk 2004 or earlier, well, why are you still using BizTalk 2004 or earlier? Let’s get you upgraded!]).

Wow, that was a long sentence, with lots of special characters (parentheses, question marks, exclamation points, slashes, brackets), and if your client sent that to you, that data might overflow the varchar(255) you’ve allowed, or those special characters might trigger unexpected actions – how would your current integration solution (which we understand might be fat-fingered Freddy from Finance) handle that?

Whether it’s writing a custom pipeline component to handle that troublesome trading partner who just HAD to use a backslash as their X12 field delimiter, reporting to management (real-time or otherwise) how many fidget spinners the Poughkeepsie office has shipped since Thursday, or ferreting out the root cause of why your banking batch gets submitted twice on the first of every month, Spidersilk Software has the knowledge, experience and dedication to ensure the success of your data integration processes (and to keep Ann from Accounting from pulling her hair out).

It doesn’t matter if you’re the energy company sending a single weekly 846 to industry partners or the healthcare company processing more than 500,000 daily proprietary client messages, you’ll receive the benefit of our 10+ years of helping our clients in the healthcare, energy, manufacturing and finance domains make sense of the ever-growing stream of data needed to successfully run your business.

Areas of Focus


We could list all of the X12 document types we’ve implemented for clients (270, 271, 810, 832, 834, 837, 846, 850, 855, 856, 997, 999, TA1), spell out all the various communication paradigms we’ve employed (AS2, EDI, SOAP, WS*, WCF, MSMQ, FTP, SFTP) or enumerate the various data stores we’ve exchanged data with (MS SQL, Oracle, Postgres, mySQL, Access, Informatica, SAP, PeopleSoft, JD Edwards, and of course, Dave from Data Processing’s favorite, Excel!). But the simple fact is that every integration solution is as unique as every business. There are plenty of 90% solutions out there for your data needs. However, that extra 10% is what makes your business special, and why your customers choose you. You can’t lose that in the service of integration, and a custom solution from Spidersilk Software preserves what makes your business special. It’s your data; access it when you want it, how you want it, where you want it.
