Good for startups or companies with limited data variability, Big data companies will need better tools

  • Standard ETL use cases for daily loads
  • Loading incoming data from Vendors which is placed on FTP and adding them to the SQL Warehouse
  • Creating outgoing data files and writing them to Vendor FTPs
  • Easy Active Directory integration for seamless connections to SQL Server
  • CI/CD by hosting the code on visualstudio.com
Cons
  • API connections are not a native functionality. We use Zappysys extensions but they work only in certain cases.
  • Dependency executions - no simple way to create a hierarchy/chain of executions. Ex: Define if the execution of the child process should be stopped if a parent fails or a certain condition is triggered in the parent process and then redirect to a different part of the chain (think like a flowchart for executions).

SSIS, free but not intuitive

  • Runs flawlessly after setup properly
  • Powerful, as mentioned
  • Free
Cons
  • Confusing operation, even with its gui
  • Requires special install and setup
  • Requires the Visual studio integration services install (separate interface from SSMS)
  • Could be more easily integrated into SSMS, but may also be used for other products that I'm not aware of

SSIS had its day, but in the big leagues it can no longer play

  • SSIS is good for small, simple data syncs.
  • SSIS is good for moving data quickly into SQL Server (good batch performance).
Cons
  • Very hard to diff for code review when changes are made.
  • Very buggy IDE (freezes in Visual Studio, doesn't always show what's in the underlying XML properly)
  • Lacking lots of features or more modern tools, like ability to monitor for changes to the source schema and apply them to the target.

Amazing data warehousing tool

  • I am able to use the GIS tools to easily generate solutions without coding.
  • Built in tasks that speed up web developing.
  • SSIS enables automated data preparations.
  • Amazing integration with Microsoft tools.
  • Creation of ETL mapping.
Cons
  • It depends so much on the Microsoft environment and has integration issues with other formats like JSON and Excel.
  • Error messages are unclear, this makes us spend a lot of time figuring out what has gone wrong making the debugging process hectic.

Data integration and migration are made easier with this tool.

  • Assists in connecting to several data sources and loading the resulting data.
  • Less expensive than other ETL tools of same stature.
  • Does away with the requirement for coding scripts.
Cons
  • There isn't a lot of room for building user-required automation.
  • Some activities need manual labour, such as exporting multiple tables in CSV format one at a time.
