In this three-part series I'll look at what you can do to persist this data so you don't find yourself waiting for usage stats to compile over a reasonable period of time just so you can harness the power of the indexing DMOs in your performance tuning process.
Searching packages or just enumerating through all tasks is not quite as straightforward as it may first appear, mainly because of the way you can nest tasks within other containers. You can see this illustrated in the sample package below where I have used several sequence containers and loops.
I saw an interesting blog post from Andy Leonard ( @AndyLeonard ) recently on what he thought Twitter was. I'd started my own post here, with some thoughts, and had to go back and rewrite things (Thanks, Andy!). He got me thinking, and I agree, it's...

This video looks at the memory buffers that transfer data to the data flow of an Integration Services package.
Scalable, cost-effective EDW implementation is an elusive goal for many large organizations. Three common approaches include centralized EDW the “monolithic” approach, decentralized collections of data marts, and attempts at hub-and-spoke architectures that combine the previous two. With the acquisition of DATAllegro and the pending release of Project codename “Madison,” Microsoft is poised to deliver a unique and compelling Massively Parallel Processing (MPP) data warehouse solution that combines the best features of both EDW and decentralized data marts.
In a sequel to his previous article on referential integrity, Glen Cooper looks at some ways to analyze who is getting emails based on a database system.
