SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) 2008: Shoot From The Hip
Presented by: Ron Landers
 |
This discussion will focus on a plethora of SSIS 2008 topics. Some of the topics I will be discussing include (but not be limited to) efficient package development, configuration, deployment, logging, new and enhanced transforms, constraints and controlling workflows, and variables and expressions.
During the session we will build and review various packages to illustrate the concepts presented, as well as discuss the application of the various topics to a production runtime environment. After all, what good would attending this session be without the ability to directly apply what we discuss in your existing environment?
This will be a dynamic interactive meeting and all relevant questions and discussion topics are welcome. Please bring your questions and your experiences to this meeting so we all can learn and benefit!
