You are developing a Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) package. The package design consists of two differently structured sources in a single data flow. The Sales source retrieves sales transactions from a SQL Server database, and the Product source retrieves product details from an XML file.
You need to combine the two data flow sources into a single output dataset.
Which SSIS Toolbox item should you use?
A . CDC Control task
B . CDC Splitter
C . Union All
D . XML task
E . Fuzzy Grouping
F . Merge
G . Merge Join
Answer: G
Explanation:
The Merge Join transformation provides an output that is generated by joining two sorted datasets using a FULL, LEFT, or INNER join. For example, you can use a LEFT join to join a table that includes product information with a table that lists the country/region in which a product was manufactured. The result is a table that lists all products and their country/region of origin.
