SSRS Is Dead.
Your Domo Reports Don't Have to Be.
SQL Server Reporting Services reached end of life with the final SSRS 2022 release. SQL Server 2025 drops SSRS entirely, replacing it with Power BI Report Server — which has no Domo integration. ReportBridge is the only platform that migrates your paginated SSRS reports directly into Domo with AI-powered conversion and native RDL rendering.

The SSRS Deprecation Timeline
Microsoft has been signaling the end of SQL Server Reporting Services for years. With SQL Server 2025, the deprecation is official. Here is what every organization running SSRS needs to know about the SSRS end-of-life schedule.
2022
SSRS 2022 — Final Release
Microsoft ships the last-ever version of SQL Server Reporting Services. No new features will be developed.
2025
SQL Server 2025 Drops SSRS
SSRS is not included in SQL Server 2025. Power BI Report Server becomes the sole on-premises successor. Domo customers are left without a migration path.
2026
Maintenance Mode — No Features, Fewer Experts
SSRS 2022 receives security patches only. The SSRS talent pool shrinks as developers move to modern platforms. Hiring and retaining SSRS expertise gets harder and more expensive every quarter.
2033
Extended Support Ends
Microsoft stops all SSRS 2022 support on January 11, 2033. After this date, no security patches, no bug fixes, no help. Organizations still running SSRS face unpatched vulnerabilities and compliance risk.
Why SSRS Migration Is Harder for Domo Customers
If your organization uses both SSRS and Domo, the SSRS deprecation creates a unique challenge. The standard SSRS replacement options — Power BI Report Server, Power BI Service paginated reports, staying on SSRS 2022 — don't address the Domo side of your stack. You need a migration path that lands inside Domo, not beside it.
Domo Can't Render Paginated Reports
Domo cards and dashboards are powerful for interactive analytics, but they cannot reproduce SSRS paginated reports — no page breaks, no headers/footers, no pixel-perfect formatting. Regulatory and compliance reports require exact output that Domo native reporting simply cannot deliver.
Power BI Report Server Doesn't Help You
Microsoft's official SSRS successor requires SQL Server and Windows Server infrastructure. It has no Domo integration, no cloud deployment option, and deepens your Microsoft licensing lock-in. If you chose Domo, you chose a different path — PBIRS doesn't fit.
Rebuilding 200 Reports Takes Months
Manually recreating each SSRS report as a Domo card means redesigning layouts, rewriting queries, and losing paginated formatting. For organizations with 50, 100, or 200+ SSRS reports, this is a multi-month project that diverts your team from actual business work.
Compliance Won't Wait
Running SSRS on end-of-life SQL Server versions creates audit findings. Unpatched reporting infrastructure is a security liability. The longer you wait, the larger the gap between your compliance posture and your reporting reality.
How ReportBridge Migrates Your SSRS Reports to Domo
ReportBridge automates the entire SSRS-to-Domo migration pipeline: AI-powered T-SQL to PostgreSQL SQL conversion, native RDL rendering with full paginated report fidelity, and group-based access control — all running inside Domo as ProCode apps.
AI-Powered SQL Conversion
Upload your .rdl files and ReportBridge's AI converts T-SQL queries to PostgreSQL automatically. No manual query rewriting. The conversion pipeline tests each query, identifies failures, and auto-fixes common patterns — handling 97% of reports without human intervention.
Native RDL Rendering Inside Domo
Your paginated reports render with full fidelity — page breaks, headers, footers, drill-through, parameters — all inside Domo as embedded ProCode apps. Users see reports in the same Domo interface they already use, with Domo group-based access control.
Migrate to PostgreSQL, Drop SQL Server
ReportBridge moves your report data from SQL Server to PostgreSQL on AWS. Once migrated, you can decommission Windows Server and SQL Server licensing entirely. Reports that cost $50K/year in Microsoft licensing can run on a $200/month PostgreSQL instance.
Side-by-Side Validation
Before you go live, ReportBridge runs every report against both SQL Server and PostgreSQL and compares the output row by row. You see exactly which reports match and which need attention — no guesswork, no surprises during cutover.

Is ReportBridge Right for You?
ReportBridge is purpose-built for organizations running SSRS reports alongside Domo. If any of these describe your situation, we should talk.
You use Domo for analytics and SSRS for paginated reports
You need to decommission SQL Server or Windows Server infrastructure
You have regulatory or compliance reports that require exact paginated formatting
Your SSRS reports connect to SQL Server and you want to migrate to PostgreSQL
You've been told to 'just rebuild everything in Power BI' but your team uses Domo
You're evaluating SSRS alternatives and need Domo-native integration
You have 50+ SSRS reports and can't justify months of manual redesign
Your SSRS talent is retiring or moving on, and hiring replacements is getting harder
SSRS End of Life — Frequently Asked Questions
Is SSRS really end of life?
Yes. SSRS 2022 is the final release of SQL Server Reporting Services. Microsoft confirmed that SQL Server 2025 does not include SSRS — it ships Power BI Report Server as the sole on-premises reporting solution. SSRS 2022 will receive security patches through January 11, 2033, but no new features, bug fixes, or platform updates will be developed. SSRS is in maintenance mode and will reach full end of support in 2033.
What is Microsoft's recommended SSRS replacement?
Microsoft's official SSRS successor is Power BI Report Server (PBIRS), which is included free with SQL Server 2025. PBIRS renders RDL paginated reports and adds support for interactive Power BI (.pbix) reports. For cloud deployments, Microsoft recommends Power BI Service with paginated report capacity (requires Fabric F64 or Power BI Premium). Neither option integrates with Domo.
Can Domo render SSRS paginated reports natively?
No. Domo's native reporting capabilities (cards, dashboards, Domo Reports) are designed for interactive analytics, not paginated output. They cannot reproduce SSRS features like page breaks, repeating headers and footers, drill-through links, subreports, or pixel-perfect print layouts. Organizations that need paginated reports inside Domo require a bridge solution like ReportBridge.
How does ReportBridge migrate SSRS reports to Domo?
ReportBridge provides a complete migration pipeline: (1) Upload your .rdl files to the admin app inside Domo, (2) AI converts T-SQL queries to PostgreSQL automatically, (3) Reports are published to a cloud rendering engine with native RDL support, (4) Users view reports inside Domo via embedded ProCode apps with group-based access control. The entire process is managed from within Domo — no external tools required.
Do I need to rewrite my SQL queries manually?
No. ReportBridge's AI conversion pipeline handles T-SQL to PostgreSQL conversion automatically, achieving a 97% success rate across 190+ production reports. The AI identifies SQL Server-specific syntax (TOP, ISNULL, DATEPART, CONVERT, etc.), rewrites it for PostgreSQL (LIMIT, COALESCE, EXTRACT, CAST, etc.), and validates the output. Reports that fail auto-conversion are flagged with specific error details for targeted manual review.
What happens to my SSRS reports if I do nothing?
Your existing SSRS 2022 deployment will continue to function and receive security patches through January 2033. However, you face increasing risk: no new features, a shrinking SSRS talent pool making hiring and retention harder, continued SQL Server and Windows Server licensing costs, and a growing migration backlog that becomes more expensive to address over time. The longer you wait, the larger and costlier the eventual migration.
Don't Wait for the 2033 Deadline
Every quarter you delay, SSRS expertise gets scarcer and migration costs increase. Start with a free demo — see your paginated reports running inside Domo in minutes, not months.
