Why is SSIS Important?

SSIS is important because it provides the user with a platform to move data from one source to another. The user can extract data from sources like SQL databases, Oracle databases, DB2 databases, and Microsoft Excel files before exporting them to another location. Other data integration and extraction features make the transition more manageable.

 

One of the reasons why SSIS is so widely used is because of its versatility. The program’s support for a range of databases and its simple graphical user interface (GUI) help new users to complete transformations and data warehousing tasks. Users have complete control to design an ETL process around their own requirements.
