55321 SQL Server Integration Services
- 5 Days Course
- Language: English
Introduction:
Struggling to keep up with data quality and loading challenges? Analysts spend up to 80% of their time managing pipelines and cleansing data, leaving just 20% for real insights. The SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) training course teaches you how to efficiently design and optimize ETL workflows, so your team can focus on delivering impactful business intelligence instead of slogging through manual data prep.
The SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) training course teaches you how to design, configure, and secure efficient ETL workflows. You’ll build SSIS packages that connect to multiple data sources, transform complex datasets, and load results into SQL Server or other destinations with precision.
You’ll also learn to design control flows, use precedence constraints effectively, optimize package execution, cleanse and validate server data, follow deployment best practices, and maintain a secure SSIS Catalog. By course completion, you’ll have the skills to deliver reliable, high-quality BI solutions that grow with your organization.
Note: This course is similar to the retired Course 20767-C: Implementing a SQL Data Warehouse but focuses more on building packages, rather than the entire data warehouse design and implementation.
Objectives:
By the end of this SQL Server Integration Services course, you will be able to:
Create sophisticated SSIS packages for extracting, transformation, and loading data
Use containers to control repetitive tasks and transactions efficiently
Configure packages to dynamically adapt to environment changes
Cleanse data using Data Quality Services for business intelligence accuracy
Troubleshoot and debug packages for reliable package execution
Create, manage, and secure the SSIS Catalog
Deploy, configure, and schedule packages for automated execution
