Scripting Tasks
- Script Task: This task can be used to program functions that are not available in the standard SSIS tasks or transformations. In SSIS 2005 this task can be programmed in VB .NET. In SSIS 2008 VB .NET and C# can be used to program a Script Task.
SQL Server Maintenance Tasks
- Back Up Database Task: This task will allow you to backup a one or many SQL Server databases.
- Check Database Integrity Task: This task will allow you to check the integrity of all the objects in one or many SQL Server databases.
- Execute SQL Server Agent Job Task: This task allows for the execution of a SQL Server Agent job.
- Execute T-SQL Statement Task: This task is similar to the Execute SQL Task, however it only supports Transact SQL Statements. It should be used for SQL Server specific SQL statements.
- History Cleanup Task: This task allows for the cleanup of historical activity data. It will cleanup the history for database maintenance plans, backup activites, restore activities and SQL Server agent jobs.
- Maintenance Cleanup Task: This task allows for the cleanup of backup files, and the reports of maintenance plans.
- Notify Operator Task: This task allows SSIS to notify SQL Server Agent operators. They can be notifies by email, pager, or netsend.
- Rebuild Index Task: This task will rebuild an index or indexes on one or many databases.
- Reorganize Index Task: This task will reorganize an index or indexes on one or many databases.
- Shrink Database Task: This task will shrink the size of the SQL Server database data and database log files.
- Update Statistics Task: This task will update the statistics for one of many tables in one or many databases.
SQL Server Tasks
- Bulk Insert Task: This task offers an efficient way to copy large volumes of data.
- Execute SQL Task: This task allows the execution of a SQL statement. If the statement returns results, they can be stored in a variable.
- Transfer Database Task: This task will copy or move a SQL Server database between two instances of SQL Server. It can even be used to make a copy of a database on the same server. Databases can be copied either online or offline.
- Transfer Error Messages Task: This task will transfer a single or multiple SQL Server user defined error messages between SQL Server instances. It can be setup to transfer specific user messages or all error messages.
- Transfer Jobs Task: This task will transfer a single or multiple SQL Server Agent jobs between SQL Server instances.
- Transfer Logins Task: This task will transfer a single or multiple SQL Server logins between SQL Server instances.
- Transfer Master Stored Procedures Task: This task will transfer a single or multiple SQL Server Master database stored procedures between SQL Server instances.
- Transfer SQL Server Objects Task: This task will transfer a single or multiple SQL Server database objects between SQL Server instances. Most of SQL Servers DDL objects can be copied with this task.
Analysis Services Tasks
- Analysis Services Execute DDL Task: This task will run data definition language statements on Analysis Services. This allows for the create, drop, alter of cubes, dimensions and mining models.
- Analysis Services Processing Task: This task will process Analysis Services Cubes, Dimensions, and Mining Models.
- Data Mining Query Task: This task will run a DMX (Data Mining Extensions) query that create a prediction based on new data that is run against a Analysis Services data mining model.
Containers
- For Loop: Repeat a task a fixed number of times
- Foreach Loop: Repeat a task by enumerating over a group of objects
- Sequence: Group multiple tasks into a single unit for easier management
