About Course

Course Overview

The MSBI online training teaches you how to use the Microsoft BI stack — primarily SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) (for ETL), SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS) (for OLAP/data modelling) and SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS) (for reporting) — to build end-to-end BI solutions.
You’ll begin with fundamentals (SQL, database concepts, data-warehousing) and move into the MSBI modules: SSIS, SSAS, SSRS.
The course often includes hands-on labs, case-studies and real-world projects to build practical skills.

Key Features

  • Covers the full MSBI stack: SSIS + SSAS + SSRS.
  • Real-time-project or case-study based learning to simulate business scenarios.
  • Flexible scheduling / online access (self-paced + live sessions).
  • Support for certification preparation and job-readiness (interview prep, resume guidance) in several offerings.

Course Outcomes

By end of the course you should be able to:

  • Design and build ETL workflows using SSIS in MSBI: extracting, transforming & loading data.
  • Model data using SSAS in MSBI: build dimensions, cubes/tabular models, apply OLAP concepts.
  • Create and deploy reports and dashboards using SSRS to deliver business intelligence in MSBI.
  • Understand how the MSBI tools integrate in a complete BI solution (data sources → warehouse → analysis → reporting).
  • Be ready for roles such as BI Developer, MSBI Consultant or Reporting/ETL Engineer and have hands-on project experience to show.

MSBI Training Course Syllabus

Introduction & SQL Fundamentals
  • Overview of MSBI: architecture, key components (SSIS, SSRS, SSAS).
  • Data warehousing concepts: OLTP vs OLAP, star & snowflake schemas, fact & dimension tables.
  • T-SQL/SQL Server basics: data types, DDL/DML, joins, views, stored procedures, functions, indexes.
SSIS – Data Integration & ETL
  • Introduction to SSIS: ETL process, SSIS architecture, control flow vs data flow.
  • Data flow components: sources, destinations, transformations (Lookup, Merge, Conditional Split, Aggregate, Sort).
  • Variables, parameters, expressions; logging, error handling and debugging of SSIS packages.
  • Advanced SSIS: containers & loops (ForEach, ForLoop), configuration, deployment of packages, SCD (Slowly Changing Dimensions), Checksum, CDC (Change Data Capture).
SSRS – Reporting Services
  • SSRS basics: architecture, report types (tabular, matrix), designing and developing reports.
  • Advanced report features: grouping & sorting, drill-down/drill-through, parameters, filters, charts, maps, dashboards.
  • Deployment & administration: deploying reports to report server, subscriptions, scheduling, managing security, optimizing performance.
SSAS – Analysis Services
  • Introduction to SSAS: data modelling, OLAP vs tabular models, dimensions, measures, aggregations.
  • Cube development & management: data sources, data source views, processing cubes, partitions, browsing cubes, basic MDX queries.
  • Advanced SSAS topics: tabular models, KPIs, perspectives, security roles in cubes, optimization & best practices.
Real-Time Project / End-to-End Solution
  • Building a full BI solution: ETL using SSIS → data modelling with SSAS → reporting via SSRS.
  • Hands-on project work, case studies, deployment to production-like environment, performance tuning, security implementation.

MSBI Online Training FAQ'S

What are the main components of MSBI? Explain their roles.

MSBI (Microsoft Business Intelligence) has three core components:

  • SSIS (SQL Server Integration Services): Used for data extraction, transformation, and loading (ETL). It helps move and cleanse data from multiple sources into a data warehouse.
  • SSAS (SQL Server Analysis Services): Used for analytical data processing — creating OLAP cubes or tabular models for data analysis and reporting.
  • SSRS (SQL Server Reporting Services): Used for designing, generating, and delivering interactive and visual business reports.
What is the difference between OLTP and OLAP systems in MSBI?
  • OLTP (Online Transaction Processing): Manages day-to-day transactions (insert, update, delete). It focuses on speed and accuracy of transaction processing.
    Example: Banking systems, order entry systems.
  • OLAP (Online Analytical Processing): Used for analysis and reporting of historical data. It focuses on query performance and complex aggregations.
    Example: Data warehousing, BI reporting systems.
What are Slowly Changing Dimensions (SCD) in SSIS?

SCDs are dimensions in data warehouses that change slowly over time.

  • Type 1: Overwrites old data (no history).
  • Type 2: Maintains historical data by adding a new record with versioning or timestamps.
  • Type 3: Keeps limited history by adding a new column for previous value.
    SSIS provides a built-in SCD transformation to manage these scenarios.
What is a Cube in SSAS?

A cube in SSAS is a multidimensional data structure that allows fast analysis of data. It stores pre-aggregated measures along multiple dimensions (like time, geography, product).
It enables slicing, dicing, drilling down, and pivoting for quick analytical queries.

What are the types of reports in SSRS?

Common types include:

  • Parameterized Reports: Allow input parameters for customized data views.
  • Linked Reports: Share the base report but use different parameter values or settings.
  • Snapshot Reports: Display data captured at a specific time.
  • Drill-down / Drill-through Reports: Enable navigation between report levels.
  • Subreports: Embed one report within another for gmodular design.
