Schedule and run SSIS without using sql server agent

  • Hi all ,

    I have a curious query .

    I have a SSIS package created for data migration . I would be providing these packages to the client . Now if the client says that he wont be scheduling the packages from sql server agent on his server .Then is there any other way of scheduling ssis pcakeges other than sql agent like batch file or executable file.

    I mean , Is it possible to provide an executable of SSIS packages.

    (There can be multiple servers and multiple databases involved. )

  • You could run the package using the DTExec utility and any scheduler you have available, including the Windows scheduler.

  • Right on Alvin, in the end all the schedulers or even SSIS server eventually call DTExec, so there is nothing preventing it from being called directly.
