The Solution and Pipeline Monitoring | Azure Data Factory for Business Central Part 1

Most ERP migrations stall on one question: how does the data actually move? This is the pipeline we build for it. Alex walks through the Azure Data Factory solution we use to move information out of a legacy ERP or database and into Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, starting from an empty portal and ending with a working pipeline saved to source control. What is covered: 0:00 Intro 0:14 Accessing the Azure portal 0:53 Launching Data Factory Studio 1:13 Studio overview: home, author and monitor 2:10 Monitoring pipeline runs and diagnosing a failure 4:13 Active and inactive activities 4:53 Triggers and scheduling 6:12 Coming up in Part 2 A pipeline here is a visual workflow. It defines the sequence of activities that pull data out of the source system, transform it where it needs transforming, and deliver it into Business Central. You design it on a canvas instead of writing an application, and you can watch every run, see which activity failed and read the input and output that caused it. Part 2 covers datasets and connectors. Part 3 covers copy data and lookup. Part 4 runs the pipeline and traces an item into Business Central. Part 5 answers the most common questions.
