Some of your other brief descriptions contain verbage that I have to translate in my head to think if I know what you're talking about. Are you purposely avoiding mentioning the more common terminology from MS itself?Mon, 24 Jan 2011 11:10:28 GMTEvil Kraig Fhttp://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic1052564-2889-1.aspxHi Craig, Yes.*:{> Andy*There's more to it than that. It includes a discussion of when to use which configuration options and how to combine them so you can migrate SSIS packages from server-to-server (Dev-to-Prod, for example) and [i]not[/i] have to open the package to edit connection strings for Connection Managers. I do not demonstrate the only way to do this, as there are several permutations. I demonstrate a way that, although complex, works in most places.Mon, 24 Jan 2011 11:06:54 GMTAndy Leonardhttp://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic1052564-2889-1.aspxAndy,For those of us un-hip in the new termonology, this is just basically environmental configuration usage, right?Mon, 24 Jan 2011 10:58:57 GMTEvil Kraig Fhttp://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic1052564-2889-1.aspxIn this “demo-tastic” presentation, SSIS trainer, author, and consultant Andy Leonard explains the what, why, and how of an SSIS framework that delivers metadata-driven package execution, connections management, and centralizes logging. Key takeaways: 1) Developers can migrate packages from Development, through their lifecycle, to Production without editing SSIS Connection Managers properties. 2) A metadata-driven approach to SSIS package execution. 3) Demonstration of a centralized logging reporting application.Mon, 24 Jan 2011 10:51:12 GMTAndy Leonard
