Hi

I am using sql server 2005 with Windows XP. I have a question on how to load xml data into sql server by applying business logic dynamically.

Question: The input is XML file which will have 5000 records. Before loading data into sql server destination tables , I have to apply business logic (2-3 level). what is the best way to achieve this?

Would it be feasible to write a stored proc with business logic and call this proc for each record in xml (5k), its a performance overhead I believe.

what is the best way to achieve this dynamically

I am assuming to follow below approach.

1. read the xml using SSIS and store in sql server staging table

2. read each record and pass it to stored proc (Stored proc will check for the business logic and inserts into multiple tables by checking referential integrity based on the logic).

Appreciate your help

Thanks

DOn't think records and rows. Think column instead to increase your ability to think set-based.
