Can we install SSIS engine without BIDS etc? If yes would it be good idea to do it on production machine - sql-server-2008

I have brand new Windows machine which we are planning to use as production machine to run our SSIS packages. My pacakges are on filesystem not in SQL Server. Is it possible we can install SSIS Engine only without BIDS. Will utility like dtexec work if We install only SSIS Engine? Is it a good idea?

In Production you wont be developing the SSIS packages so you don't need BIDS .
BIDS is a plugin for Visual Studio with additional Project types that are
specific to SQL Server business intelligence.
While installing SQL server you should include Integration Service Instance.SSIS runtime is actually not needed to run your packages .
SSIS Service Usage
Check out this article
Description of the SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) service and of alternatives to clustering the SSIS service
dtexec utility comes with SQL Server to run a SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) package .So even without BIDS ,this utility will run your SSIS packages

SSIS Error "To run a SSIS Package outside of SQL Server Data Tools you must install Standard Edition of Integration Services or higher"

I am trying to run my SSIS Package through a third party tool call Autosys. While running the job I am getting the error "To run a SSIS Package outside of SQL Server Data Tools you must install Standard Edition of Integration Services or higher".
The job is working perfect in the UAT with the same configuration as Prod with Sql Servies Integration Services 13.0 installed both on them.
I am using SSDT 2015 on both the servers.
Could anyone please help to get this issue resolved.
Please let me know if you need any other information or if I have missed something to mention.
Based on my assumption that Autosys is installed on different system:
1. You need integration service installed on system where you are executing ssis from,no matter what tool you use
2. Check if Autosys and Integration services are installed in same system or install Autosys tool on server where job is working without failure.
Install said service : https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/integration-services/install-windows/install-integration-services?view=sql-server-2017

Upgrade SSIS package created in SSIS 2014 to work in SSIS 2016

How can I upgrade SSIS packages created in SSIS 2014 so that they work in SSIS 2016?
I'm trying to invoke the packages using c# (Package.Execute).
My packages have custom script tasks.
I've written redirects like...
<assemblyIdentity name="Microsoft.SqlServer.ManagedDTS" culture="neutral" />
<bindingRedirect oldVersion="10.0.0.0-13.0.0.0" newVersion="13.0.0.0"/>
But I still get the error To run a SSIS package outside of SQL Server Data Tools you must install of Integration Services or higher.
Microsoft Documentation - Understanding the Differences between Local and Remote Execution
You can only run a package outside the development environment on a
computer that has Integration Services installed. You cannot run
packages outside of SQL Server Data Tools (SSDT) on a client computer
that does not have Integration Services installed, and the terms of
your SQL Server licensing may not permit you to install Integration
Services on additional computers. SQL Server Integration Services is a
server component and is not redistributable to client computers. To
run packages from a client computer, you need to launch them in a
manner that ensures that the packages run on the server.
So, the C# code calling Package.Execute will only work on a machine with SSIS installed.
Please install SSIS on your local development machine to test this code. Or try another method to execute packages remotely.
Use SQL Server Agent to run the remote package programmatically
Use a Web service or remote component to run the remote package
programmatically
Edit: Yes, this makes it hard on developers sometimes. Microsoft wants you to pay for that SSIS license.
If you are using SSDT for Visual Studio 2017, you should be able to update the TargetServerVersion option in the properties of the SSIS project.

SSIS Error When executing from command line [duplicate]

This question already has an answer here:
Executing SSIS 2012 package that has script components from external application
(1 answer)
Closed 8 years ago.
I have a small SSIS package which exports data to a excel file from SQL server 2008. The package works perfectly fine in our dev environment, when the package is moved to our another environment we receive the below error on execution from command line.
The package runs for a while and then gives the below error
Error: 2012-05-21 18:34:01.61
Code: 0xC000F427
Source: Create Summary From Detail SSIS.Pipeline
Description: To run a SSIS package outside of Business Intelligence
Development Studio you must install Standard Edition of Integration Services
or higher.
End Error
Other SSIS packages which were exported to this environment before are working fine now. Only this package is throwing this error, what i meant to say is we are having the SSIS installed on this environment.
Can Some one please let me know what could be the possible reason for this?
Please let me know if you need more information.
Thank you
What version of SQL Server do you have installed on your computer? You need at least SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition. If you are running Workgroup Edition or SQL Server Express, you will have difficulties with advanced SSIS features (unless you are running through Visual Studio.)
See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc645993.aspx#SSIS for a list of SSIS features not supported by SQL Server Workgroup.
A package runs on the same computer as the program that launches it. Even when a program loads a package that is stored remotely on another server, the package runs on the local computer. Also, you can only run a package outside the development environment on a computer that has Integration Services installed. You cannot run packages outside of Business Intelligence Development Studio on a client computer that does not have Integration Services installed, and the terms of your SQL Server 2005 licensing may not permit you to install Integration Services on additional computers.
So, apparently you don't have SSIS on your "another environment". Did you deploy it to SQl Server or File disk?
To run remote packages from a local computer that does not have
Integration Services installed, start the packages so that they run on
the remote computer on which Integration Services is installed. You do
this by having the local computer use SQL Server Agent, a Web service,
or a remote component to start the packages on the remote computer. If
you try to start the remote packages directly from the local computer,
the packages will load onto and try to run from the local computer. If
the local computer does not have Integration Services installed, the
packages will not run.
This article shows mechanisms for running the package on another machine that does have SSIS installed:

Converting SSIS packages into Cloud Azure

how to convert SSIS packages into Cloud azure.
Also please can you tell me something about SSIS packages and what is not supported in CLoud.
SSIS is not supported in SQL Azure at all for now.
If you have to run it, you have 3 options that I can see:
Install SQL Server standard on a VM role in the cloud and run it on that.
Put your database in the cloud, but run the package on a local machine and just connect to the remote database.
Rewrite your SSIS logic as an Azure worker role

I install the dll on my sqlAzure server and I use it and I can manage my packages online.
