* Required Fields

In this SSIS training course, you gain the skills to improve business intelligence capabilities by automating complex migration tasks and auditing the success or failure of migration processes. You will learn to transform data among heterogeneous data sources — such as text files, Oracle, Access, XML, ODBC and OLE DB — and effectively and securely managing data migration across various platforms.

In this SSIS training course, you’ll gain the skills to migrate and transform data with SQL Server Integration Services. You learn to solve data management problems by creating dynamic packages for migrating, processing, and reporting on data for business intelligence. Specifically, you learn to deploy packages to an SSIS server, assemble tasks to perform complex data migrations and enhance package functionality with scripting.

  • This course uses Microsoft SQL Server 2016, running on Windows Server 2016
  • This course is applicable to those using earlier versions of SQL Server

Familiarity with relational database management systems, programming concepts, and SQL language

SQL Server developers, administrators and analysts who need to migrate and transform data among diverse platforms.

You'll be given remote access to a preconfigured virtual machine for you to redo your hands-on exercises, develop/test new code, and experiment with the same software used in your course.

This is an intermediate-level SQL training course. We recommend ome knowlede of relational databases management systems, programming concepts, and SQL language prior to taking this course.

Microsoft Integration Services is a platform for building enterprise-level data integration and data transformations solutions. You use Integration Services to solve complex business problems by copying or downloading files, sending e-mail messages in response to events, updating data warehouses, cleaning and mining data, and managing SQL Server objects and data. The packages can work alone or in concert with other packages to address complex business needs. Integration Services can extract and transform data from a wide variety of sources such as XML data files, flat files, and relational data sources, and then load the data into one or more destinations.

It is essential for organizations to securely manage data migration among a myriad of platforms to enhance their business intelligence capabilities. In this course, attendees learn to leverage SQL Server Integration Services to extract, transform, load and integrate data from a variety of sources. Typical participants include database developers and analysts who need to migrate data among diverse platforms. Database administrators who need to manage Integration Services packages stored on SQL Server and database professionals working in mixed environments of DBMSs such as Oracle, Access and SQL Server will benefit from this course.

Most tasks in this course can be accomplished with no programming. You will learn to use programming to extend the capabilities of SSIS even if you have never programmed before. All of the necessary information to complete the exercises will be given in the course.

SSIS is one of the components in Microsoft's Business Intelligence platform. The other two consist of Reporting Services and Analysis Services. SSIS allows you to migrate data for decision support purposes. Once migrated, data can be analyzed with Analysis Services and reports can be built using Reporting Services.
