I have a table which has approximately 140 columns. The data for this table comes from a transactional system and many of the columns are Unicode.

I dump the daily load to my Staging database whose data type matches exactly with what the source system has.From Staging, I do some cleaning and load it to a Reports database. When loading from Staging to Reports database, I convert all the Unicode character data to String and then load it to reports database. This process takes an awful lot of time and I am trying to optimize this process (make the load times faster).

I use the Derived column transformation to convert all the Unicode Data to String data. Any suggestions here for me?

    how about if you cast your columns as varchar(size) on your source query?
