Transformations in SSIS - Part3


UNPIVOT IN SSIS

Using Unpivot component in SSIS is a very easy task. Following is the source table which I extracting from a excel source. It shows Application Software categorization and I want to get those categories (Business,Communication and Graphics) in to rows.



Business Communication Graphics
School Administration Software Microsoft Email Software 3D Graphics Software
Time Tracking Software BitTorrent Clients Image Viewers
Cost Analysis Software WordPress



Following figure shows the Data Flow task of the ssis package.





Following is how we have to configure the Unpivot component. In here Destination Column name should be same for every input column. Other destination column name is the pivot key value column name. You can see these column headers in out put.







This is how we have the out put after the unpivot operation.

Fuzzy Grouping Transformation in SSIS 2014

Fuzzy Grouping Transformation is used to replace the wrongly typed words with correct words. This transformation is same as Fuzzy Lookup Transformation but Fuzzy Grouping Transformation does not require any reference table to correct the data. It will use the grouping technique to check for the wrongly typed words (type mistakes) and correct them. For example, if 98 people typed country name as India and 2 people types as Indi then Fuzzy Grouping Transformation will replace the Indi with India.
Before we start configuring the Fuzzy Grouping Transformation, let us see some important properties of this:
  • Fuzzy Grouping Transformation uses Grouping technique to replace the wrong word in source data with the correct word.
  • This transformation allows us to use only DT_WSTR and DT_STR Data type column for Fuzzy Matching and Exact matching can be applied to any data type except DT_TEXT, DT_NTEXT, and DT_IMAGE.
  • Fuzzy Grouping Transformation creates temporary tables and indexes in the SQL Server database at runtime.
  • Fuzzy Grouping Transformation only use OLE DB Connection Manager to establish connection to store the temporary tables and indexes.
  • To configure the transformation, you must select the Match Type (Fuzzy or Exact) for an input columns
TIP: Fuzzy Grouping Transformation has one input and one output. It does not support an error output.

Fuzzy Grouping Transformation in SSIS 2014 Example

In this example we are going to show you, How to configure Fuzzy Grouping Transformation in SQL Server Integration Services to correct the wrongly typed words (Typo mistakes)
Data we are going to use for this Fuzzy Grouping Transformation is:
SSIS Fuzzy Lookup Source Data
STEP 1: Open BIDS and Drag and drop the data flow task from the toolbox to control flow and rename it as Fuzzy Grouping Transformation in SSIS 2014.
SSIS Fuzzy Grouping Transformation 1
Double click on it and it will open the data flow tab.
STEP 2: Drag and drop OLE DB Source, Fuzzy Grouping transformation from toolbox to data flow region
SSIS Fuzzy Grouping Transformation 2
STEP 3: Double click on OLE DB source in the data flow region will open the connection manager settings and provides an option to select SQL Table or space to write our SQL statement.
SSIS Fuzzy Grouping Transformation 3
Here we selected the Employees database as our source database and [Fuzzy Source] as SQL table.
STEP 4: Click on columns tab to verify the columns. In this tab we can uncheck the unwanted columns also.
SSIS Fuzzy Grouping Transformation 4
TIP: If we don’t want any column then there is no point to add it in to your SQL command.
STEP 5: Right click on the Fuzzy Grouping Transformation will open the Fuzzy Grouping Transformation Editor window to configure it.
Within the Connection Manager tab we have to configure the OLE DB connection Manager setting. Within this source, Fuzzy Grouping Transformation will create temporary table and indexes to perform the Fuzzy Grouping operation.
SSIS Fuzzy Grouping Transformation 5
STEP 6: Within the Columns Tab, We have to configure the match Type. You will need to select the columns that you want to group as Fuzzy Match Type and other columns as Exact match. For this example, Country name is string and we want to find the wrong values in this column. So, change the match type to Fuzzy and Cid is the Int value so the match type is Exact.
SSIS Fuzzy Grouping Transformation 6
There are two parameters which are very important when you are Configuring fuzzy grouping Transformation and they are: Numerals and Comparison Flags.
Comparison Flags
From the below screenshot you can see the available options in this.
  • Ignore case: If we check mark this option then Fuzzy Grouping will ignore the case. Both XYZ and xyz will be same.
  • Ignore kana type: If we check mark this option then Fuzzy Grouping will ignore the difference between the hiragana and katakana in Japanese.
  • Ignore non spacing characters: If we check mark this option then Fuzzy Grouping will ignore the difference between the diacritics and character
  • Ignore character width: If we check mark this option then Fuzzy Grouping will ignore the difference between single-byte character and double-byte character.
  • Ignore symbols: If we check mark this option then Fuzzy Grouping will ignore the difference between the letters and symbols (white spaces, punctuations, currency symbols and mathematical symbols). For example, *xy is treated same as xy
  • Sort punctuation as symbols: If we check mark this option then Fuzzy Grouping will all the punctuation symbols (except apostrophe and hyphen) write before the letters. For example .xyz will sort before the xyz
SSIS Fuzzy Grouping Transformation 7
Numerals
In this option, We have to specify the significance of starting and ending numerals while comparing the column data. For example, if leading numerals are significant, “93 New lands Street” will not be grouped with “99 New lands Street”
ValueDescription
NeitherNumerals at the starting and ending position will be ignored while grouping.
LeadingNumerals at the starting position will be ignored while grouping.
TrailingNumerals at the ending position will be ignored while grouping.
LeadingAndTrailingNumerals at the starting and ending position will not be ignored while grouping.
SSIS Fuzzy Grouping Transformation 8
STEP 7: Within the Advanced Tab we have to configure the Similarity Threshold. Similarity threshold ranges between 0 and 1 where 1 is exact match. The Fuzzy Grouping Transformation Editor provides slider to adjust the similarity between 0 and 1. If similarity threshold is closer to 1 then source column should match more accurately to reference data. In this example, We are doing Fuzzy Grouping on Country Name and find the fuzzy match. If we give Similarity threshold as 0.76 the string column values should match more than 76% then only it will treat as a valid record.
SSIS Fuzzy Grouping Transformation 9
The Fuzzy Grouping Transformation produces additional columns along with existing columns and they are:
  • Input key column name: Provide the Unique name for Input Key Column. key_inis the default name.
  • Output key column name: Provide the Unique name for Output Key Column. key_Outis the default name.
  • Similarity score column name: Provide the Unique name for the similarity score column._score is a value between 0 and 1. This will indicate the similarity of the input row to the canonical row.
For the time being we left them to default values and Click ok to finish configuring the Fuzzy Grouping Transformation. Now drag and drop the OLE DB destination into the data flow region.
STEP 8: Now we have to provide Server, database and table details of the destination. So double-click on the OLE DB Destination and provide the required information
SSIS Fuzzy Grouping Transformation 10
Here we selected the [SSIS Tutorials] database as our destination database and [Fuzzy Grouping Transformation Output] table as our destination table.
STEP 9: Click on Mappings tab to check whether the source columns are exactly mapped to the destination columns.
SSIS Fuzzy Grouping Transformation 11
STEP 10: Click ok to finish designing Fuzzy Grouping Transformation package. Let us run the package

Term Lookup Transformation in SSIS 2014

The Term Lookup Transformation is used to find terms with in the string or text. It uses the reference table (contains terms) to find the matched sentences from the source data and also counts the number of times a term is repeated in the source data row.
The Term Lookup transformation adds two extra columns to the transformation output called as Term and Frequency by default. Term contains a term from the lookup table and Frequency contains the number of times the term is repeated or occurred in the input data set.
TIP: In SQL Server integration services, Term Lookup Transformation only allows the columns with DT_WSTR and DT_NTEXT data type to perform term lookup. If your input column is different from these two then Please use the Data Conversion Transformation to convert other Data Types to DT_WSTR and DT_NTEXT data type.
For example, if your company has 100 products and it is allowing users to write reviews on your products. Imagine you are getting 2000 reviews per day then, how will you find which review belongs to which product? To resolve these type of issues SSIS introduced Term Lookup Transformation. Using this you can find which row has product 1 review and which row has product 90 review.

Term Lookup Transformation Matching Techniques

Term Lookup Transformation uses following rules to perform Term lookup on the source Data:
  • If the reference table contains singular form of the word then Term Lookup Transformation consider both the singular and plural forms of the word in the source data as singular form. For example, if the term lookup table contains Employee and we have Employee and Employees terms in source data then Term Lookup Transformation would count both of them as a match for the lookup term
  • If the reference table contains plural form of the word then Term Lookup Transformation consider both the singular and plural forms of the word in the source data as separate Terms. For example, if the term lookup table contains Employees and we have Employee and Employees terms in source data then Term Lookup Transformation would count Employee separately and Employees separately.
  • If we configured the Term Lookup Transformation to perform case-sensitive matches then employee is treated separately from EMPLOYEE. If we have Employee as a first word in the sentence then Term Lookup Transformation will count Employee and employee as same term.

Term Lookup Transformation in SSIS 2014 Example

In this example we are going to show you, How to configure Term Lookup Transformation in SSIS 2014 with sample data.
Here is our [Term Lookup Source] table
SSIS Term Lookup Transformation Source
Here is our term lookup table (Term Lookup Transformation Table from the [SSIS Tutorials] Database).
SSIS Term Lookup Transformation Reference

SSIS Term Lookup Transformation 1
Double click on it and it will open the data flow tab.
STEP 2: Drag and drop OLE DB Source, Term Lookup Transformation and OLE DB destination from toolbox to data flow region
SSIS Term Lookup Transformation 2
STEP 3: Double click on OLE DB source in the data flow region will open the connection manager settings and provides space to write our SQL statement or we can select the table from Drop down list.
SSIS Term Lookup Transformation 3
STEP 4: Click on columns tab to verify the columns. In this tab we can uncheck the unwanted columns also.
SSIS Term Lookup Transformation 4
STEP 5: Click ok and edit the Term Lookup Transformation
In the reference table tab, Configure the OLE DB connection manager to reference database (Here it is [SSIS Tutorials]) and then select the table you wish to add as reference table (Here it is Term Lookup Transformation table).
TIP: Term Lookup Transformation only supports OLE DB Connection Manager to connect with the reference table.
SSIS Term Lookup Transformation 5
NOTE: Term Lookup transformation will accept only Unicode String [DT_WSTR] or Unicode text stream [DT_NTEXT] as its data type.
Step 6: Use the Term Lookup tab to map an input column to a lookup column in a reference table and to provide an alias for each output column.
SSIS Term Lookup Transformation 6
Use the Advanced tab of the Term Lookup Transformation Editor Dialog box to specify whether Term lookup should be case-sensitive or not.
SSIS Term Lookup Transformation 7
From the below screenshot you can see, there is a warning symbol on the Term Lookup Transformation and it is telling that error output is not connected. You can remove the warning symbol by configuring the error output of Term Lookup Transformation. So double click on the Configure Error Output button will open new window to configure the error output.
The default configuration of a Term Lookup Transformation is to redirect error rows. You can get rid of this warning by connecting the error output or by changing the default behavior toIgnore Failure or Fail Component. Let me change to Ignore Failure
SSIS Term Lookup Transformation 8
Click ok to finish configuring the Term Lookup Transformation.
STEP 7: Now we have to provide Server, database and table details of the destination. So double click on the OLE DB Destination and provide the required information
SSIS Term Lookup Transformation 9
From the above screenshot you can observe that, We selected the [SSIS Tutorials] database as our destination database and [Term Lookup Transformation Output] table as destination table.

Term Extraction Transformation in SSIS

In SQL Server Integration Services, Term Extraction transformation first extracts terms from the text present in the source data and then writes the extracted terms to a Transformation output column.
For example, people are writing reviews on your products, and you want to contact them for further assistance. In these situations you can use Term Extraction transformation to extract the email address and name of the user from the reviews.
NOTE: Term Extraction transformation uses its own English dictionary and linguistic setting to extract the Term from the source data.
In SSIS, We can perform Term Extraction Transformations only on the column with the DT_WSTR and DT_NTEXT data type. If your input column is different from these two then Please use the Data Conversion Transformation to convert other Data Types to DT_WSTR and DT_NTEXT data type

Configuring Term Extraction Transformation in SSIS

When you double-click on this transformation a Term Extraction Transformation Editor window will be opened to configure it. It contains three Tabs such as Term Extraction,Exclusion and Advanced Tab.

Term Extraction Tab

Within the Term Extraction tab, We have to select the column name of the Source data , from the Available Input Columns option as we shown in the below screenshot.
SSIS Term Extraction Transformation Term tab
Term Extraction transformation produce only two output columns. The default names of the columns are Term and Score but you can change them as per your requirement.
  • Term: This column contains the extracted terms from the text. For example, if we are extracting the Nouns then all the nouns will be stored in this column.
  • Score: This column contains the number of times a term is repeated in the input column. For example, India is the first term extracted from the text then Term Extraction Transformation will check all the rows and counts the number of times Term India is repeated in all the rows available in that input column.

Exclusion Tab in Term Extraction Transformation

This tab is used to exclude unwanted terms from the extraction. For example, when we are extracting terms from a source data that contains product reviews about all our company products then we don’t need to extract our own Product name from the input text. To add the Exclusion Terms to the Term Extraction Transformation please check mark the Use Exclusion Terms option from the below screenshot
SSIS Term Extraction Transformation Exlusion Tab
List of options available in Exclusion Tab to configure the exclusion list are:
  • OLE DB connection manager: Term Extraction Transformation only supports OLE DB connection manager to connect with the server holding the exclusion list. So, select an existing one from the drop down list if you already created or if you want to create new connection then click on the New button.
  • New: Create New connection to a database using OLE DB Connection Manager dialog box.
  • Table or view: Select the table or view from the drop down list which contains the exclusion terms.
  • Column: Select the column name from the table or view which contains the exclusion terms.
  • Configure Error Output: Click on this button to configure the errors.

Advanced Tab

Use the Advanced tab in the Term Extraction Transformation Editor to configure the extraction properties.
SSIS Term Extraction Transformation Advanced Tab
From the above screenshot you can observe that, Following are the list of options available in the Advanced Tab
  • Noun: If you select this option then, Term Lookup Transformation will extract only Nouns from the input text.
  • Noun phrase: If you select this option then, Term Lookup Transformation will extract only Noun Phrases from the input text.
  • Noun and noun phrase: If you select this option then, Term Lookup Transformation will extract both Nouns and Noun Phrases from the input text.
  • Frequency: If you select this option then Score column will store the information of, Frequency of the Term repeated in input column.
  • TFIDF: If you select this option then Score column will store the information of, TFIDF value of the Term.
  • Frequency threshold: If we specify 3 then Term Extraction Transformation will extract the Terms, if they are repeated at least 3 times in the column and it will ignore the terms repeated less than 3 times.
  • Maximum length of term: Please provide the maximum length of a word or phrase. This option is available if we selected the Noun Phrases only option.
  • Use case-sensitive term extraction: Please check mark this option if you want to perform the Case-Sensitive extraction.

OLE DB Command Transformation in SSIS

In SQL Server Integration Services, OLE DB Command Transformation is used to run the SQL Statements like INSERT, UPDATE and DELETE Statements in the Data Flow. Please refer Deleting Data Using OLE DB Command Transformation article to understand How to delete data using OLE DB Command Transformation and Updating Data using OLE DB Command Transformation article to understand the Update operations.
NOTE: OLE DB Command Transformation reads one row at a time from the Data flow and then apply the SQL statement on that row. So, the performance will be poor if the number of rows increases. For example, to Update 5 records OLE DB Command Transformation will run 5 times.

Inserting Data Using OLE DB Command Transformation in SSIS 2014 Example

In this example we will show you, How to insert Data into the destination table using OLE DB Command Transformation. Before we start designing the SSIS Package let me show you the Destination Table in [SSIS Tutorials] Database
Inserting Data Using OLE DB Command Transformation in SSIS 0
Drag and drop the Data Flow Task from toolbox to control flow region and rename it as Inserting Data using OLE DB Command Transformation in SSIS 2014.
