At February 25th March the 4th 2021 I’ll be giving a webinar on the MSSQLTips.com website. The topic is Integration Services. This webinar is meant as an introduction for beginners.
The abstract:
For years, Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) has been the tool in the data platform stack to integrate, move and transform your data. This ETL tool allows you to build data pipelines, extract data from various sources, transform it on-the-fly and write to many destinations. In this webinar, we give you a hands-on introduction to SSIS.
What to expect:* how to load data from a flat file, an Excel file or a database
* how to transform data. E.g. add a calculation, do a lookup against a reference data set, filter data and so on
* how to write data efficiently to a destination, such as a SQL Server database
We will use demos to demonstrate how you can load data into a database and by the end of the webinar, you’ll have the knowledge needed to start your first SSIS project.
