Implementing a Data Warehouse using Microsoft SQL Server Uzbekistan Eğitimi

This three-day instructor-led course provides students who wish to administer and maintain a SQL Server data warehouse and ETL infrastructure using SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS).

Target Audience

The primary audience for this course is individuals who will administer and maintain a SQL Server data warehouse and create and maintain SSIS packages.

In addition to their professional experience, students who attend this training should already have the following technical knowledge:

Essential:

• Basic knowledge of the Microsoft Windows operating system and its core functionality.
• Working knowledge of Transact-SQL. (equivalent knowledge to QATSQL and QATSQLPLUS)

Nice to have:

• Working knowledge of relational databases.
• Some experience with database design.

Virtual Classroom

For learners attending remotely via any virtual classroom, an additional screen is required for this course to work through remote desktop labs and view training information. A remote Desktop will be provided using GoToMyPC or LearnOnDemand.

The additional screen must have a minimum screen size of 19 inch and minimum resolution of 1280x1024, with the vertical resolution (1024) being the most critical.
