⚡ SSIS Migration Platform

Migrate SSIS to Airflow, Python & Azure Data Factory

MigryX parses every .dtsx package and .ispac project archive — data flow components, control flow tasks, SSIS expressions, connection managers, and C#/VB.NET script tasks — then generates production-ready code for modern cloud platforms.

Data Flow Engine

80+ data flow components — every transformation type

MigryX understands the SSIS data flow graph at the component level, preserving transformation semantics when generating pandas, PySpark, or Snowflake SQL output.

🖼

Source Components

OLE DB Source, ADO NET Source, Flat File Source, Excel Source, XML Source, Raw File Source, ODBC Source. Connection strings extracted and converted to cloud-native connectors.

Transformation Components

Derived Column, Conditional Split, Lookup, Merge Join, Sort, Aggregate, Data Conversion, Character Map, Copy Column, Multicast, Union All, Pivot, Unpivot, Slowly Changing Dimension (SCD Type 1/2/3).

🆕

Destination Components

OLE DB Destination, ADO NET Destination, Flat File Destination, Excel Destination, Raw File Destination, SQL Server Destination, ODBC Destination. Bulk load patterns preserved.

📄

SSIS Expressions

Full SSIS expression language parsing — string functions, date functions, type casts, conditional operators, and variable/parameter references. Resolved to Python or Jinja2 at conversion time.

📋

SCD Patterns

Slowly Changing Dimension wizard output fully parsed and rewritten. Type 1 (overwrite), Type 2 (history rows), and Type 3 (alternate column) converted to MERGE statements or dbt snapshot models.

🔗

Lookup & Cache Components

Lookup Transformation (full-cache, partial-cache, no-cache modes), Cache Transform, Fuzzy Lookup, Term Lookup — converted to JOIN operations or in-memory dictionary lookups in Python.

Control Flow

Control flow converted to idiomatic orchestration code

Every SSIS control flow element — precedence constraints, loops, containers, and event handlers — is modeled and converted to equivalent orchestration patterns.

▶ Execute SQL Task

SQL statements, stored procedure calls, and result sets mapped to Python database operators or ADF pipeline activities. Connection strings resolved to target connectors.

🔁 For Each Loop Container

File enumerator, ADO object enumerator, and item collection loops. Converted to Airflow dynamic task mapping or Python iteration patterns with parameterized sub-tasks.

🔄 For Loop Container

Counter-based iterations with InitExpression, EvalExpression, and AssignExpression. Converted to Python while/for loops or Airflow sensor + trigger patterns.

📁 Sequence Container

Task grouping, rollback boundaries, and transaction scope. Mapped to Airflow TaskGroup or Python context managers preserving execution order and error propagation.

📝 Script Task (C#/VB.NET)

Inline C# and VB.NET scripts decompiled and analyzed for external dependencies. Converted to Python with AI-assisted translation and a manual review checklist for complex logic.

📤 Execute Package Task

Child package invocations and package-level parameter passing. Converted to sub-DAG calls in Airflow or modular Python function calls with parameter injection.

⚠ Event Handlers

OnError, OnWarning, OnTaskFailed, OnPostExecute event handlers converted to Airflow callbacks, Python exception handlers, or alerting logic in Prefect.

⏱ SQL Agent Jobs

SQL Server Agent job steps invoking SSIS packages via dtexec or SSISDB catalog execution. Schedules, parameters, and invocation patterns converted to Airflow or Prefect schedules.

Migration Methodology

Three phases — discovery to production

1

Inventory & Complexity Scoring

MigryX scans your .dtsx files, .ispac archives, and SSISDB catalog. Every package receives a complexity score and a migration effort estimate before conversion begins.

  • Full package inventory — names, paths, dependencies
  • Component-level complexity heatmap
  • Script task count and language breakdown (C# vs VB.NET)
  • Connection manager catalog with dynamic expression flags
  • Prioritization report — quick wins vs complex packages
2

Automated Conversion

The MigryX parser engine converts each package — data flow, control flow, expressions, and connection configuration — to idiomatic code for your chosen target platform.

  • .dtsx XML parsed to an intermediate package AST
  • Data flow graph re-expressed as pandas / PySpark / SQL
  • Control flow mapped to DAG tasks with precedence edges
  • SSIS expressions evaluated and translated inline
  • Script tasks translated with AI assist + review markers
3

Validation & Handover

Every converted pipeline is accompanied by a row-level validation suite. MigryX runs converted code in parallel with the original to confirm output parity before handover.

  • Row count and hash validation on all outputs
  • Schema comparison — column names, types, nullability
  • Execution log comparison — timing and error rates
  • Great Expectations suite generated per pipeline
  • Full lineage report — SSIS source → modern target
Component Mapping

SSIS components → modern equivalents

Key transformation mappings MigryX applies automatically. Every mapping is documented in the lineage report.

SSIS Component Python / pandas Airflow Azure Data Factory
OLE DB Source SQLAlchemy + pd.read_sql() SQLExecuteQueryOperator Linked Service + Dataset
Derived Column df.assign() / df[col] = expr Python operator inline Data Flow derived column activity
Conditional Split df[df[condition]], df.query() BranchPythonOperator Conditional Activity / If Condition
Lookup df.merge(lookup_df, how='left') Python operator with join Lookup activity
Merge Join pd.merge(df1, df2, on=key) Python operator Join in Mapping Data Flow
SCD Wizard (Type 2) MERGE + effective_date tracking Python + upsert logic Slowly Changing Dimension activity
ForEach Loop for item in items: ... Dynamic task mapping @expand() ForEach activity
Execute SQL Task engine.execute(sql) SQLExecuteQueryOperator Stored Procedure activity
Migration Targets
