# SSIS specialists for your dedicated team.

SQL Server Integration Services is Microsoft's ETL platform, building data flow packages in a visual designer and executing them on SQL Server. It is present in most long-running Microsoft data estates.

## Where SSIS fits in a long-term product team.

SSIS packages are the plumbing of most established Microsoft estates, and they are almost always undocumented. A package built years ago, moving data between systems on a SQL Agent schedule and still running correctly, whose transformations the current team can't explain, is the typical situation.

The packages are usually still the right answer for what they do. They work, they are integrated with the estate, and rewriting them elsewhere is cost without benefit unless something specific forces it. The productive work is understanding them, testing them, and monitoring them properly.

## What your dedicated team does with SSIS.

Failure handling is the common gap. Many inherited packages fail silently or log only to an unwatched table, so a load that stopped three days ago is discovered when a report is wrong.

Adding real alerting to existing packages is small work with a large reliability return, and it sits inside the standing capacity described in how an assignment runs.

## Common SSIS use cases.

* Inherited packages understood Transformations documented, because the package is often the only record of the rules.
* Failures that are noticed Alerting added, so a stopped load is known within minutes.
* Deployment brought into version control Packages managed as versioned artefacts.

## Adding SSIS skills to your team.

SSIS work sits with a [dedicated data engineering team](https://azendo.co/services/dedicated-data-engineering-team/), with monitoring added to inherited packages before any modernisation.

Every SSIS specialist we assign works remotely inside your tools as a dedicated member of your team, with the management on our side. It is how companies [hire remote developers](https://azendo.co/hire-a-dedicated-development-team-in-thailand/) without opening an offshore office of their own.
