SSIS 2014, Part 07 of 11: Scripting Components

You can add script to an Integration Services package in two main ways, both of which you’ll learn about in this course. First you’ll learn how to use the Script task to add script to a package’s Control Flow. Then you’ll learn how to use the Script Component to add script to a package’s Data Flow. These two components are quite different. The Script task usually executes once in the package, or perhaps once per loop in a looping container. The Script Component executes once per row in the Data Flow, and may end up executing millions of times each time the package executes if there is that much data to process. This is why there are separate components for the Control and Data Flows: the requirements of each are quite different. As a result, the code you’ll write for each is quite different, as you’ll learn in this course.

Each LearnNowOnline training course is made up of Modules (typically an hour in length). Within each module there are Topics (typically 15-30 minutes each) and Subtopics (typically 2-5 minutes each). There is a Post Exam for each Module that must be passed with a score of 70% or higher to successfully and fully complete the course.
