Connect to the SSIS Catalog (SSISDB) in Azure
Applies to: SQL Server SSIS Integration Runtime in Azure Data Factory
Find the connection information you need to connect to the SSIS Catalog (SSISDB) hosted on an Azure SQL Database server. You need the following items to connect:
- fully qualified server name
- database name
- login information
Important
You can't create the SSISDB Catalog database on Azure SQL Database at this time independently of creating the Azure-SSIS Integration Runtime in Azure Data Factory. The Azure-SSIS IR is the runtime environment that runs SSIS packages on Azure. For a walkthrough of the process, see Deploy and run an SSIS package in Azure.
Prerequisites
Before you start, make sure you have version 17.2 or later of SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS). If the SSISDB Catalog database is hosted on SQL Managed Instance, make sure you have version 17.6 or later of SSMS. To download the latest version of SSMS, see Download SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS).
