SSIS references

I've been searching around for info on SSIS and it is scarce!  I've emailed quite a few people I know are in the SQL realms and so far this is the best I've gotten.  I wanted to make sure I noted it down before I lost it.  I've taken the liberty of paring this down quite a bit.

 ... There's a few good blogs that I read regularly, and that's pretty much it, as far as I've found...
 
 ... deploying SSIS packages sucks at the moment, with the lack of documentation and built in features. A few things that should make it easier is:
* Use configuration files extensively. Anything that might change between environments should be configurable through the config files
* Use Integrated Security wherever possible.
* Use relative paths when referencing the file system.
 
 It still is quite painful to maintain the config files, but at least you don't have to muck around with the packages itself after moving them from dev.
 
Jamie Thomson have written a few pretty good article on configurations:

I hope these can be of help to someone.  I'm reading through the links today to see if it'll help with some challenges I've been facing.

About Keith Barrows

I've been in computing since 1975. I started on an old PDP-8J with 3k of memory and 2 teletypes. I learned BASIC and Octal based assembly. I later moved into CPM, TR-DOS, Apple and finally into PC-DOS, Dr DOS and MS-DOS. I've been a beta tester for over a decade, got into web applications as a means to handle B2B requirements and have specialized in data movement between applications and businesses since. I have been a MVP, ASP Elite and was selected by Microsoft as one of the original 15 board members for ASPInsiders.
