I recently had a very scary thing happening on our Telemetry setup, that I would have never expected, and was glad I was able to catch it in time.

My Directions EMEA 2023
Directions EMEA 2023 is just around the corner, and I’m looking very much forward to it! And so should you! ;-). Since last year in Hamburg – which was clearly the best edition of all – they have set high expectations. At least for me ;-). It was the first edition to have “deep dive” …

Analyzing Deadlocks in Business Central with Telemetry
Not too long ago, I was (and still am) challenged with analyzing deadlocks at a specific customer. And in all honesty – that was not easy, because, you know, deadlocks is something on SQL – and it’s not like we have a lot of access to SQL tools. What are deadlocks? I’m not going to …

Microsoft Dynamics 365 2023 Release Wave 2 plan for Business Central
It’s that time again: the plan for the next wave is there! Erik Hougaard already covered the plan – and in good habit – I’ll do the same in blog-form (I still hate making videos – or getting content from watching them – I’m clearly getting too old ;-)). I’ll do as I always do: …

BCTechDays 2023 – Final thoughts
BCTechDays is over, and it’s time for an (almost) traditional BCTechDays aftermath :-). A short one this time .. What an edition is was again 😱. Too bad I simply had to spend all the time I could find to prep for my own session with Vjeko. But more on that later. This year, it …

And while doing so, quite some new ideas came to mind that I’d like to investigate by means of Telemetry. But first, a disclaimer I’m absolutly not an expert. Probably there are better ways …

Dynamics 365 Business Central in 2023 release wave 1
It’s always nice having to prep a webinar about “what’s new in Business Central”. It makes you being very busy with what’s next, and forces you to dive into it :-).
