Overview of this book

ETL is one of the most common and tedious procedures for moving and processing data from one database to another. With the help of this book, you will be able to speed up the process by designing effective ETL solutions using the Azure services available for handling and transforming any data to suit your requirements. With this cookbook, you’ll become well versed in all the features of SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) to perform data migration and ETL tasks that integrate with Azure. You’ll learn how to transform data in Azure and understand how legacy systems perform ETL on-premises using SSIS. Later chapters will get you up to speed with connecting and retrieving data from SQL Server 2019 Big Data Clusters, and even show you how to extend and customize the SSIS toolbox using custom-developed tasks and transforms. This ETL book also contains practical recipes for moving and transforming data with Azure services, such as Data Factory and Azure Databricks, and lets you explore various options for migrating SSIS packages to Azure. Toward the end, you’ll find out how to profile data in the cloud and automate service creation with Business Intelligence Markup Language (BIML). By the end of this book, you’ll have developed the skills you need to create and automate ETL solutions on-premises as well as in Azure.

Loading data before its transformation

ELT is very similar to ETL, but with a crucial difference: the order of the transform and load steps are inverted. This is very useful with big data in the cloud or when we do not have an ETL tool on-premises. This recipe will be much simpler than the previous one, as we'll implement ELT using a database, so no tools are involved here except for calling the ELT task.

It also relies on the previous recipe, Creating a simple ETL package, since we're going to use the SalesLT.CustomerFullName table data to implement the ELT pattern.

There are essentially two parts to this recipe:

  1. Extract and load data into our data lake. Here, we don't have a real data lake; we're using AdventureWorksLT on Azure to mimic the data lake concept.
  2. Transform the data inside the database using a simple SQL script. We're going to add the FullName column to the SalesLT.Customer table and update it using this script.
