Agenda

What is new in SSIS 2008?Connectivity componentsConnectivity CategoriesNew SSIS connectors

ERP

Thinking Bigger About Business Intelligence

Majority of the content for decision making are in multiple heterogeneous sources (e.g. ERP systems, databases, flat files)

Need to integrate & consolidate data from all these sources, and make quality data available to users

Connectivity is the key to address these challenges

ERP Systems

Databases

What is new in SSIS 2008?

Improved and new task componentsNew Lookup Capabilities (caching enhanced)Data Profiling Task (data quality checking)C# Scripting. VSA replaced by VSTAScalable Data Flow (thread pooling)

Enhanced and new connectivity supportADO.NET Source and DestinationNew connectors for Oracle, Teradata and SAP BI

Data Access APIs and SSIS

"When developing in BIDS, 32-bit data providers are always used at design time, if 64-bit providers will be used in production packages, the equivalent 32-bit provider must be available at design time."

API Pros Cons

OLEDB • Comprehensive support with SSIS • 64-bit OLE DB providers less prevalent.

ADO.NET• Good support with SSIS• Direct support with ADO.Net Source & ADO.Net Destination

• Somewhat limited availability of out of the box ADO.NET providers

ODBC • ODBC drivers for possible data sources widely available

• Requires the use of a bridge - introduces performance and reliability issues

Custom-API • Designed for performance of native utilities

•Limited availability for most databases • Inconsistent support with SSIS - varies according to architecture
