• Deploy a Package for production use.
• Implement Security measures to protect sensitive data.
• Utilize Scripting to extend SSIS functionality.
• Apply Best Practices for efficient and maintainable SSIS solutions.

The aim of this course is to provide a clear understanding of the advanced use of (SQL) for Microsoft SQL Server and the advanced use of Transact-SQL. For more in depth coverage of the topics this course can be run as a three day course.

This course is divided into 3 main sections and is made up of a mixture of presentations and practical exercises.

1. VB.NET Language in Visual Studio 2012
2. VB.NET Object Orientation
3. VB.NET and Sql Server 2012

As a core of the Microsoft data platform, SQL Server is a leading operational database management system.

This intensive training provides the fundamental knowledge and skills to use Windows PowerShell for automating administration of Windows based computers. The skills taught in this course are applicable to all Microsoft products that use Windows PowerShell for daily administration.

Training focuses mainly on using Windows PowerShell as an interactive command line interface however it also includes some coverage of scripting and programming topics.

SSAS (SQL Server Analysis Services), is a Microsoft SQL Server transactional processing (OLAP) and data mining tool for analyzing data across multiple databases, tables or files. The semantic data models provided by SSAS are used by client applications such as Power BI, Excel, Reporting Services, and other data visualization tools.

In this instructor-led, live training (onsite or remote), participants will learn how to use SSAS to analyze large volumes of data in databases and data warehouses.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Install and configure SSAS
• Understand the relationship between SSAS, SSIS, and SSRS
• Apply multidimensional data modeling to extract business insights from data
• Design OLAP (Online Analytical Processing) cubes 
• Query and manipulate multidimensional data using the MDX (Multidimensional Expressions) query language
• Deploy real-world BI solutions using SSAS

Audience

• BI (Business Intelligence) professionals
• Data Analysts
• Database and data warehousing professionals

 
Format of the Course

• Interactive lecture and discussion
• Lots of exercises and practice
• Hands-on implementation in a live-lab environment

Course Customization Options
