Friends,

Data viewers are a very important feature in SSIS for debugging your data pump pipeline. They allow you to view data at points in time at runtime. If you place a data viewer before and after the Aggregate Transform, you can see the data flowing into the transform at runtime and what it looks like after the transform happens. There is one fantastic feature  in this Data Viewers i.e Once you deploy your package and run it on the server as a job or with the service, the data viewers do not show because they are only a debug feature. Anytime the package is executed outside the designer, the data viewers won’t show. There are four types of data viewers:

  • Grid
  • Histogram
  • Scatter Plot
  • Column Chart

1. Grid:

  • GRID Type Will displays the columns in the Grid Format.

2. Histogram:

  • Select Histogram when columns wants display in histogram model
  • Histogram graph works only with 1 column at a time.
  • Histogram graph works only with numeric data

3. Scatter Plot:

  • Scatter Plot (x.y) works only with numeric data.

4. Column Chart:

  • Select Column Chart when columns want to display in the column chart.
  • This graph only works with 1 column at a time.

In this post, let us see a simple example to configure GRID Data Viewers in a Data Flow task.

  • Open a new project and drag a Data Flow task from toolbox in Control Flow.
  • Edit the Data Flow task by double clicking the object or by selecting EDIT button on Right click on the object. Make sure the Data Flow Page is opened as shown below.

  • Select an OLE DB data sources from data flow sources and drag and drop it in the data flow.
  • Double click on the OLE DB data source to open a new window where we can set the properties of the connection.
  • Select the connection manager and click on new button to set the connection string to the table of your wish as shown below.

  • Select  the required columns from the COLUMNS TAB(Page) as shown below.

  • Drag and Drop the Flat File Destination, make a connection between the OLE DB Source and Flat File Destination and configure it.
  • Double click on the pipeline connecting OLE DB Source and Flat File destination to configure Data Viewers properties and click on ADD to add a new Data Viewer as shown below.

  • You can find all the FOUR different types of Data Viewers you can set and select GRID as we are covering about only GRID in this post.

  • Select the GRID tab and select the columns for which we wish to see the data in Data Viewers. By default all the columns will be selected and we can deselect any column which we don’t want to be part of Data Viewer and then click OK as shown below.

  • Now you can see an ICON showing the Data Viewer is created for a path as shown below.

  • Now the package is all set to test Data Viewers functionality and hence trigger the package. Once the execution reaches to the point of Data Viewer, the GRID will be opened and shown as below.

In the above picture, the highlighted part is the Data Viewer where you can see the columns configured as part of GRID Data Viewer configuration.

That is it .. In next post we will see about the remaining types of Data Viewers like Histogram,Scatter Plot and Column Chart. Till then enjoy Coding !!

  45. New coins supported, blog updates and exclusive offers directly in your inbox Some 10% of CRO’s supply was earmarked for initial distribution and later airdropped to participating MCO token holders on a monthly basis, Messari explained. As of June 2022, there were 25.3 billion CRO in circulation. Finally, staking CRO to obtain the card yielded a generous staking reward for users, up to 12% p.a for Icy White, Frosted Rose Gold, and Obsidian cardholders. But Crypto.com plans to cut this to zero after the changes take effect. The mobile app is easy to fund, and you can get great discounts on trading fees by staking the company’s token, CRO. Crypto.com uses multifactor authentication and grants eligible users up to $250,000 in case of a loss of assets. This makes it a highly secure wallet to store your crypto.

  46. A literal two-player game for mobile phones, Duel Otters, is all about challenging your friends, bringing the phone head to head and starting the wild mission. And for all that, two lovely otters take the mission ahead. There are also no adverts in the game, although you are regularly hit with in-game promotions to buy extra equipment or more in-game currency. Since its launch, many exciting game modes like 2v2, Triple Elixir, Sudden Death, Wall Breakers Party, Draft, and Triple Draft have been added to Clash Royale and every mode encourages players to use their cards and decks differently. Features like Clans and Clan Wars make it the perfect game for multiplayer game enthusiasts. There are many things to say when you love someone so hard that even for a few minutes, you can’t seem to keep away from them. It’s usually the distance between partners that is slowly disappearing and trusting us, and nobody wants that! So what is the next step you must take to avoid this unfortunate situation and to prevent it? Now, especially for couples, game apps may be the key to your partnership. At first, especially if you are sceptical, it could sound difficult to believe but just try some of them. If you don’t want or feel comfortable, no one can force you to rely on technology. But you could change your mind rapidly.

    Based on Magnus Carlsen, the World Champion in Chess, this app lets you challenge a digital version of Magnus Carlsen – chess world champion. You play against a Chess Engine that is specifically tuned to play like Carlsen. You can play and qualify to actually play against the World Champion himself. Chances are, if you’re reading this article, then you’re already using Chess.com or its competitor Lichess (more on this later). When it comes to the two, Chess.com has the larger number of tutorials – perhaps far larger than any other chess app to be found. It’s a good entry point for chess beginners to get their toes wet. Veterans who would like to learn more about theory and tactics will enjoy it as well. To access our best app lists for all subjects (Android, iPhone, iPad)
