Lab : Planning Data Warehouse Infrastructure

Module 3: Designing and Implementing a Data WarehouseThis module describes the key considerations for the logical design of a data warehouse, and then discusses best practices for its physical implementation.

Lessons

• Logical Design for a Data Warehouse
• Physical design for a data warehouse

Lab : Implementing a Data Warehouse Schema

Module 4: Creating an ETL Solution with SSIS

This module discusses considerations for implementing an ETL process, and then focuses on Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) as a platform for building ETL solutions.

Lessons

• Introduction to ETL with SSIS
• Exploring Data Sources
• Implementing Data Flow

Lab : Implementing Data Flow in an SSIS Package

Module 5: Implementing Control Flow in an SSIS Package

This module describes how to implement ETL solutions that combine multiple tasks and workflow logic.

Lessons

• Introduction to Control Flow
• Creating Dynamic Packages
• Using Containers
• Managing Consistency

Lab : Implementing Control Flow in an SSIS PackageLab : Using Transactions and Checkpoints

Module 6: Debugging and Troubleshooting SSIS Packages

This module describes how you can debug packages to find the cause of errors that occur during execution. It then discusses the logging functionality built into SSIS that you can use to log events for troubleshooting purposes. Finally, the module describes common approaches for handling errors in control flow and data flow.

Lessons

• Debugging an SSIS Package
• Logging SSIS Package Events
• Handling Errors in an SSIS Package

Lab : Debugging and Troubleshooting an SSIS Package

Module 7: Implementing an Incremental ETL Process

This module describes the techniques you can use to implement an incremental data warehouse refresh process.

Lessons

• Introduction to Incremental ETL
• Extracting Modified Data
• Loading Modified data

Lab : Extracting Modified DataLab : Loading Incremental Changes

Module 8: Enforcing Data Quality

This module introduces Microsoft SQL Server Data Quality Services (DQS), and describes how you can use it to cleanse and deduplicate data.

Lessons

• Introduction to Data Quality
• Using Data Quality Services to Cleanse Data
• Using Data Quality Services to Match data

Lab : Cleansing DataLab : De-duplicating data

Module 9: Using Master Data Services

Master Data Services provides a way for organizations to standardize data and improve the quality, consistency, and reliability of the data that guides key business decisions. This module introduces Master Data Services and explains the benefits of using it.

Lessons

• Master Data Services Concepts
• Implementing a Master Data Services Model
• Managing Master Data
• Creating a Master Data Hub

Lab : Implementing Master Data Services

Module 10: Extending SQL Server Integration Services

This module describes the techniques you can use to extend SSIS. The module is not designed to be a comprehensive guide to developing custom SSIS solutions, but to provide an awareness of the fundamental steps required to use custom components and scripts in an ETL process that is based on SSIS.

Lessons

• Using Scripts in SSIS
• Using Custom Components in SSIS

Lab : Using Custom Components and Scripts

Module 11: Deploying and Configuring SSIS Packages

In this module, students will learn how to deploy packages and their dependencies to a server, and how to manage and monitor the execution of deployed packages.

Lessons

• Overview of SSIS Deployment
• Deploying SSIS Projects
• Planning SSIS Package Execution

Lab : Deploying and Configuring SSIS Packages

Module 12: Consuming Data in a Data Warehouse

This module introduces business intelligence (BI) solutions and describes how you can use a data warehouse as the basis for enterprise and self-service BI.

Lessons

• Introduction to Business Intelligence
• Introduction to Reporting
• An Introduction to Data Analysis

Lab : Using Business Intelligence Tools

This course requires that you meet the following prerequisites:

• At least 2 years’ experience of working with relational databases, including:
  • Designing a normalized database.
  • Creating tables and relationships.
  • Querying with Transact-SQL.
  • Some exposure to basic programming constructs (such as looping and branching).

An awareness of key business priorities such as revenue, profitability, and financial accounting is desirable.
