We celebrate Pride Month and diversity in our remote workplace!

We celebrate Pride Month and diversity in our remote workplace!

A lot has changed in our (remote) workplaces and especially in the past year. But the importance of inclusion and diversity hasn’t gone anywhere. And neither has the joy and power of recognizing the total value of everyone on your team. At atwork, diversity and inclusion are in our daily life. Everyone should be treated equally and with respect. These are the foundations of our modern society. We want to show our sympathy by adapting our atwork logo on the website, on our blog and on our LinkedIn page to the rainbow colors. We support Pride and the LGBTIQ community with the motto “Join us. March with us. Together & Proud.” It’s important to celebrate Pride in the (remote) workplace because we need to acknowledge and recognize the accomplishments of the gay rights movement and our LGBTQ advocates. ...

Optimize SQL queries using subqueries for lookups in Azure SQL Databases

Optimize SQL queries using subqueries for lookups in Azure SQL Databases

I like to work with Azure SQL Databases and use data from the cloud without any administrative effort. When working with apps, App Insights helps to detect anomalies, and to analyze bottle necks. Although SQL Azure can scale very well, we discovered performance issues in some legacy apps. Read here how we solved that by optimizing TSQL data queries. The scenario There is an older web application here that is connected to an SQL database that is running in an SQL elastic pool. App Insights showed the reason (the SQL queries) for the bad performance. Diving deeper, the elastic pool and the database / Query Performance showed performance issues in detail with certain queries which had very long runtimes. As we see in the following screenshot, there are two long running queries. Query 164 has been executed almost 274,000 times in the past 24 hours, consuming more than 6:40 hours. We started to investigate this issue. ...

Tips for PowerApps-Add required user permissions for PowerApps using Dataverse

Tips for PowerApps-Add required user permissions for PowerApps using Dataverse

When users shall have access to a PowerApp that is using Dataverse (formerly Common Data Service - CDS), they also need to have the permissions to access the data entity (nowadays called table). So, if your users get an ugly “unknown error occurred” when accessing the PowerApp, here´s the solution to assign the required security role and permissions. The data table To demonstrate how to set permissions, I switched to the environment (in my sample, it´s the “Dev environment”) and created a new table in the https://make.powerapps.com/environments/[environment-id]/entities / Data / Table menu. The table name here is atworktest with some text columns. ...
