    You need to download SSDT for VS2015, and develop packages for SQL Server 2016/2017 also

    Hi @Aladdin Elhamy ,

    SSDT is backwards compatible, so you can always use the newest SSDT to design and deploy databases, models, reports, and packages that run on older versions of SQL Server.
    And follow this steps to install SSDT for VS2015 :SSDT for Visual Studio (VS) 2015.
