In real projects, you don't run isolated transformations or jobs. Instead, you combine their execution, in order to create a flow of tasks. In particular, you can run jobs or transformations from a job, and you can also iterate the execution of transformations and jobs by simulating a loop. In this section, you will learn how to implement some of these combinations. The sample jobs and transformations will be related to the datamart introduced in Chapter 5, Loading Data.
