After completing this module, student will be able to:
Module 9: Tuning SQL Server Integration Services Packages
Before putting your package into production, it is beneficial to take some time to review your package with an eye toward preventing, or at least mitigating, performance problems. In this module we will take a close look at how the SSIS engine works and cover best practices to ensure proper performance.
After completing this module, students will be able to:
Module 10: Debugging SQL Server Integration Services Packages
This module describes procedures for debugging SSIS packages and follows with a section on error handling.
After completing this module, students will be able to:
Module 11: Common SQL Server Integration Services Design Patterns
Design patterns help to solve common problems encountered when developing data integration solutions. In this module we’ll discuss how to choose among certain options, and cover deployment strategies.
After completing this module, students will be able to:
Module 12: Installing, Upgrading, and Migrating to Windows 7
This module includes concept reinforcement scenarios to encourage students to use what they’ve learned throughout this course. Scenario solutions are provided.
After completing this module, students will be able to:
