Topic: Moving Data with Azure Data Factory

Session Description:

Azure Data Factory - ADF - is a cloud data engineering solution. ADF version 2 sports a snappy web GUI (graphical user interface) and supports the SSIS Integration Runtime (IR) - or "SSIS in the Cloud."

Attend this session to learn:

- How to build a "native ADF" pipeline;

- How to lift and shift SSIS to the Azure Data Factory integration Runtime; and

- ADF Design Patterns to execute and monitor pipelines and packages.
