At BrightStar Analytics, a data solutions company, a new challenge emerged. The client, a rapidly growing coffee shop chain called BrewMasters, needed to consolidate sales data from three regions into a centralized database for real-time reporting. The regions used different point-of-sale (POS) systems, and BrewMasters' data was inconsistent: prices were stored as text, dates varied in format, and some regions didn’t log customer contact info. The SSIS-698 training video was assigned to the lead developer, Maya, to troubleshoot this problem.
