Abstract

In the realm of Business Intelligence (BI) workflows, robust data processing is paramount for ensuring the accuracy and reliability of data integration and transformation processes. This paper focuses on the critical aspects of error handling and logging within SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS), a widely utilized tool for data extraction, transformation, and loading (ETL). Effective error handling strategies enable developers to identify, respond to, and resolve data anomalies and processing failures, thereby minimizing disruptions in data workflows. This study explores various methodologies for implementing comprehensive error handling mechanisms, including the use of event handlers, error outputs, and custom logging solutions. Furthermore, it delves into the significance of logging practices in SSIS, emphasizing their role in monitoring data flows, diagnosing issues, and facilitating audits of data processes. By analyzing best practices and common pitfalls, this paper provides actionable insights for BI professionals seeking to enhance the resilience of their data integration processes. Ultimately, a robust framework for error handling and logging in SSIS not only ensures the integrity of data processing but also enhances the overall efficiency and effectiveness of BI workflows, fostering informed decision-making in organizations. This research contributes to the understanding of how meticulous error management can significantly impact the reliability of data-driven insights in an increasingly data-centric world.
