Waldo's Blog

Well .. no! “Not yet”, at least ;-). Let me be clear: this post is NOT a recommendation that you should use Docker for your OnPrem Customer’s production environments. Not at all. This is merely a blogpost about the fact that I wouldn’t mind Microsoft to officially support Docker as an alternative to an NST deployment. If you don’t care about the “why” below – just upvote here ;-): https://experience.dynamics.com/ideas/idea/?ideaid=daf36183-287e-e911-80e7-0003ff689ebe “Continuous Upgrade” Just imagine you would be able to continuously upgrade your customers. This has actually…

For a few weeks now, people have been asking “can I have the restapp you were showing” – well, here it is: https://github.com/waldo1001/waldo.restapp But that would be not much of a blogpost – would it ;-). Just an example… During NAVTechDays, I did 2 sessions: Development Methodologies for the future {Connect app}² (with Vjeko ) In both sessions, I talked about the concept of “dependencies”. Yes indeed – in my opinion, “dependencies” is an opportunity that we should embrace .. (just watch the “Development Methodologies” session if you want to know how and why). Now, during the…

It’s over – the week I’m always looking forward to for so long passes by in a blink of an eye: NAVTechDays . As Vjeko already shared the goodies – I will do so as well – joined with my final thoughts and some pictures ;-). I feel myself old and repetitive by saying this conference is “something else”.  Just imagine: quality food: morning, noon and evening, quality (recorded) sessions – all available to the community, 90 minute deep-dive topics, in quality seats, with quality media equipment, and quality speakers (uhum ;-)) – all captured by a quality photographer.  Quality! That’s NAVTechDays…

I got quite a week ahead of me .. .  Not only will I host one session and some workshops .. I will actually host 2 sessions, 2 workshops and an ISV session this year.  What did I get myself into? No repeats! If you look at my session schedule, and you have visited Directions EMEA, well, you might wonder if I’m “just” redelivering content at NAVTechDays.  Well .. No!  Totally not, actually. Without giving away anything – let me try to explain … Development Methodologies for the future (Thursday 11:30 – 13:00) First of all, if you attended my session at Directions, you noticed…

The better half of my past week can be summarized best by this oh-so-descriptive-error-message: Right: a message I have spent a long time on to find out what was happening – and what caused it. Multiple days – so let me try to spare you the pain when you would encounter this error. (tip: if you don’t care about the story, just skip to the conclusion ;-)). History We are rebuilding our product to Business Central – and are almost finished. In fact, we have spent about 500 days building it – and since the recent release of Wave 2, we are fully in the process of upgrading…
