SQL Server Integration Services

Applies to: SQL Server SSIS Integration Runtime in Azure Data Factory

SQL Server Integration Services is a platform for building enterprise-level data integration and data transformations solutions. Use Integration Services to solve complex business problems. For example:

• Copy or download files
• Load data warehouses
• Cleanse and mine data
• Manage SQL Server objects and data

Integration Services can extract and transform data from a wide variety of sources such as XML data files, flat files, and relational data sources, and then load the data into one or more destinations.

Integration Services includes:

• A rich set of built-in tasks and transformations.
• Graphical tools for building packages.
• An SSIS Catalog database to store, run, and manage packages.

You can use the graphical Integration Services tools to create solutions without writing a single line of code. You can also program the extensive Integration Services object model to create packages programmatically and code custom tasks and other package objects.

You can start by installing SQL Server Integration Services, which is part of SQL Server setup.

For installation instructions and guidance, see Install Integration Services.
