Are you reading data from Business Central using web services? Use Read Scale-Out for better system performance!
As of Business Central 2020 release Wave 1, we can now utilize the Read Scale-Out feature in Azure SQL Database and SQL Server.
Read-Scale-Out uses the capacity of a read-only replica database instead of sharing a processing database. This way, read-only workloads like reports, queries, and API pages, are isolated from the primary read-write workloads. Your outside integrations that need to read data won’t consume resources or affect the performance of business processes inside of Business Central.
These features will equip your Business Central environment with the horsepower it needs to process transactions or return results on in-application reports or navigation. It will also ensure all inapplicable data isn’t processed unless you need it to be.
Read-only workloads will run on a dedicated database and their performance will improve by reducing the load on your primary database. Making the following changes to access data in Business Central ensures your primary database has full capacity for day-to-day business operations.
The Multiple Ways to Utilize Read-Scale Out in 亿博电竞 365 Business Central
The following are examples of changes to webservices configuration you can test in a sandbox if you are looking to alleviate strain on your environment. If you have questions about specific configuration changes or impacts, please reach out to our client services team.
Change the Access Intent in Business Central
Set the Data Access Intent in the pages properties
This is great if you are creating a custom webservice page.
Change the HTTP Request Header
As of Business Central 2021 release Wave 2, developers can change data access intent from the HTTP request header.
Here is an example using Postman:
Whether you need a specific set of data to present, or want to limit the amount of clutter in your system by separating data sets into their own read-only documents, these features can help you streamline that process.
Using Application Insights?
Application Insights is a diagnostic tool you can use to determine why your 亿博电竞 365 Business Central system is behaving a certain way.
This can include gathering information on extensions, diagnosing a slow-down in processing, or giving you a view of the traffic and data running through your system.
In this scenario, you can use event ID RT0008 to view incoming web service telemetry data. Using the sample query below, in conjunction with Application Insights, can help you utilize this feature.
