SSIS ETL Data Resource Management

Create an ETL package using a wizard database server to database server The business goal of this ETL package is to transfer inventory data from our TPS to the supplier. Specifically, we want to transfer inventory data from our lallylab2.mgmt.rpi.edu database server that functions as our TPS server to the supplier. Source: lallylab2.mgmt.rpi.edu (SQL Server) ( ) Destination: research.mgmt.rpi.edu (SQL Server) ( )

SSIS Packages An SSIS package is a project that implements the functionality to extract, transform, and load data. A basic package contains: Data flow elements These elements extract data, modify data, and load data into data sources. The main data flow elements are: – Sources. – Transformations – Destinations. Control flow elements These are required elements and control the order in which elements run. The main control flow elements are: – Tasks

SSIS Tasks Tasks do the actual work in packages. We have a variety of tasks in SSIS: Data preparation tasks copy files and directories, download files and data, save data returned by Web methods, or work with XML documents. Workflow tasks communicate with other processes to run packages or programs, send and receive messages between packages, and send messages. SQL Server tasks access, copy, insert, delete, or modify SQL Server objects and data. Analysis Services tasks create, modify, delete, or process Analysis Services objects. Scripting tasks extend package functionality through custom scripts. Maintenance tasks perform administrative functions, such as backing up SQL Server databases, rebuilding and reorganizing indexes, and running SQL Server Agent jobs.

1. Create a new ETL package without using the wizard MSSQL to MSSQL example The business goal is to transfer orders information from one internal transactional database to another internal database. The assumption is we have multiple databases in the company TPS. We transfer data from a SQL Server 2008 r2 database server to another SQL Server 2008 r2 database server. Source: lallylab2.mgmt.rpi.edu Destination: lallylab2.mgmt.rpi.edu We transfer order data. From OnlineInventory to DRM10

2. Create a new ETL package Excel to MSSQL example The business goal is to transfer customer information from an Excel file to an internal database. Source: customer.xls Destination: lallylab2.mgmt.rpi.edu We transfer customer data.

3. Add an task Business goal: Notify the supplier when the daily inventory task is successful. Create an task that automatically sends s to the supplier.
