Topic:	SSIS Moving Beyond the Script Task & Script Component
Date:	Thursday, May 3rd, 2012 at 6:00PM
Details:	This month, Chris Price from Pragmatic Works will be on hand, and he has allowed our group pick the topic that he will present.  Our members have voted, and have selected the  topic "SSIS Moving Beyond the Script Task & Script Component". Let us know if you'll be there so we can have a headcount for food by taking this survey. Move beyond the script task and script component and you’ll find one of the often overlooked aspects of Integration Services is the extensibility options that are available. We will dive into a world of .Net code and discover your options for extending your SSIS Packages with custom objects. We will explore both custom task and data flow components as we develop from the ground up a set of reusable SSIS components using managed code. Bio Chris Price is a Business Intelligence Consultant with Pragmatic Works. He has his M.B.A from the University of South Florida and has worked as a software developer and architect since 1999. For the past couple of years his attention has been focused primarily on the world of Business Intelligence with a specialty in ETL and Data Integration. His interest spans the Microsoft BI stack from SSIS and SSAS to SSRS and Performance Point.     See you there!
