Introduction Earlier, I acciedntally scheduled this post and it published before I could revise it. I received an interesting comment about that from my friend Mike Walsh – hopefully the comment will survive the editing process. Prelude I don’t know much about Zen. I’ve met a few practitioners in my time and respect everyone’s right to believe …

Introduction This post is part of a series of posts on ETL Instrumentation. In Part 1 we built a database to hold collected SSIS run time metrics and an SSIS package to deomnstrate how and why we would load metrics into the database. In Part 2 we expanded on our database and the SSIS package …

Introduction SSIS is a fantastic ETL engine. When I build an ETL solution in SSIS, I like to collect runtime metrics. Why? I use the data initially to determine a baseline for performance and to determine, in some cases, if I’m loading within a defined window. I refer to this process of collecting performance and runtime metrics as ETL …
