You are designing a complex SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) project that uses the Project Deployment model. The project will contain between 15 and 20 packages. All the packages must connect to

Question

Options

• ACopy and paste the connection manager details into each package.
• BImplement project connection managers.
• CImplement package connection managers.
• DImplement parent package variables in all packages.

• B
  91% (32)
• C
  3% (1)
• D
  6% (2)

Explanation

In SSIS's Project Deployment model, project-level connection managers are defined once at the project level and are automatically available to every package within the project. This is precisely the feature designed for the scenario described: 15-20 packages all sharing the same data source and destination. With project connection managers, you configure the connection once and all packages inherit it, minimizing development effort and ensuring consistency. Package-level connection managers (option C) would require you to define them separately in each package - high effort and error-prone. Copying and pasting (option A) is manual and tedious. Parent package variables (option D) are used for passing values between parent and child packages, not for sharing connection managers.
