If you ask a random Microsoft partner about their worries with Business Central there is a fair chance “Performance” is in their top three. It probably depends if this partner has a background with NAV. If this is the case it’s a guarantee it’s in the list. As long as I remember I’ve been doing some form of performance tuning. First with the old Native Navision database, later with SQL Server and now on Azure SQL. It’s not really a surprise that when I joined...

Most of you, if you are a more or less loyal reader of my blog, will remember that last year I blogged about breaking up the base app, how to do that and a call to action for volunteers. After that I blogged a bit about visiting the office in Lyngby and starting a project. However, I don’t think I’ve ever officially reported back how that project worked out and how it “ended”. Let me do that now and add a new call to action for the community. Last week I had a...

This blog is more of a question, or a call to share knowledge of a piece of technology that is not used by many. About 4 months ago my largest customer moved to SQL Azure with their 200GB database after a lot of testing and careful considerations. I’m not going to post about the business value of the Azure platform and the benefits of running on this. I’m...

A new version of Business Central is around the corner. The codename is BC16 or 2020 Wave I. Both are the same thing. I think it is safe to say that Business Central is a great succes. In the competing world of Cloud Business Solutions it is the most flexible product and the customer base is growing rapidly. Business Central has a fantastic user interface and the extensibility model is next to nothing else out there. Last week I was talking to a reseller of Business Central on the west...
