ADO NET Destination

The ADO NET destination loads data into a variety of ADO.NET-compliant databases that use a database table or view. You have the option of loading this data into an existing table or view, or you can create a new table and load the data into the new table.

This destination uses an ADO.NET connection manager to connect to a data source and the connection manager specifies the ADO.NET provider to use. For more information, see ADO.NET Connection Manager.

An ADO NET destination includes mappings between input columns and columns in the destination data source. You do not have to map input columns to all destination columns. However, the properties of some destination columns can require the mapping of input columns. Otherwise, errors might occur. For example, if a destination column does not allow for null values, you must map an input column to that destination column. In addition, the data types of mapped columns must be compatible. For example, you cannot map an input column with a string data type to a destination column with a numeric data type if the ADO.NET provider does not support this mapping.

Note

SQL Server does not support inserting text into columns whose data type is set to image. For more information about SQL Server data types, see Data Types (Transact-SQL).

Note

The ADO NET destination does not support mapping an input column whose type is set to DT_DBTIME to a database column whose type is set to datetime. For more information about Integration Services data types, see Integration Services Data Types.

The ADO NET destination has one regular input and one error output.

Troubleshooting the ADO NET Destination

You can log the calls that the ADO NET destination makes to external data providers. You can use this logging capability to troubleshoot the saving of data to external data sources that the ADO NET destination performs. To log the calls that the ADO NET destination makes to external data providers, enable package logging and select the Diagnostic event at the package level. For more information, see Troubleshooting Package Execution.

Configuring the ADO NET Destination

You can set properties through SSIS Designer or programmatically.
