I have more than four UPDATE statements which update the same table but different columns. Currently these updates are set to run in a sequential manner even though they are not dependent on each other. Is it possible to get these updates to run parallel to each other by placing them in separate Execute SQL Tasks in SSIS so that they can all kick in at the same time? What I’m not sure of is whether the engine locks the table so that only one UPDATE is allowed to run at a time.
Many thanks,
