Main Topic: New Approach to Build and Test in SSIS using BIML

Main Topic Speaker: Yoke Wanneevechasilp, American Credit Acceptance

Main Topic Summary: Business Intelligence Markup Language (Biml) automates your BI patterns and eliminates the manual repetition that consumes most of your SSIS development time.
