<H2>Level Up! From Basic Biml to Automated Data Warehouse Frameworks</H2>
Have you ever wanted to build a Data Warehouse simply by pushing a button? It might not be quite that simple yet, but gone are the days of repetitive development. Biml (Business Intelligence Markup Language) helps you create powerful Data Warehouse frameworks using SSIS in just days instead of months.
This full-day workshop will give you a solid understanding of Biml and how you can use it to improve your own work day: From the basics of Biml, to generating hundreds of SSIS packages using BimlScript, to creating metadata-driven frameworks for automating Data Warehouse development. Along the way, you will learn about best practices, coding techniques and how you can gradually adopt Biml in existing small or large projects.

If you're a new SSIS Developer or an experienced Data Warehouse Architect, working in-house or as a consultant, or even if you're a Jack of All Trades - you will leave this workshop with new ideas for your projects :)
