why we need *Data Flow Task* in SSIS

  • Hi,

    I am quite new to SSIS

    Why do we need Data Flow Task in SSIS. -- Is it used to connect two different databases like from Oracle to SQL or from DB2 to SQL

    Currently we are loading data from Oracle database to SQL server database. I see that the previous developer has used DataFlowTask , where-in he uses a OLEDB Source Editor to do a SELECT from Oracle database and uses OLEDB Destination editor to INSERT those selected values

  • Because that's the task designed for that purpose. What else would you use?
