We currently have a scheduled export to a BYOD of key tables from D365 F&O. We can then run SQL queries on BYOD for reporting.
Our infrastructure already has a Data Lake which consumes data from multiple sources etc.
My question is:
Can we simply export from D365 to Data Lake and not have to use BYOD. I was told this needs to first go to BYOD and only then from the BYOD SQL Server we could export to Data Lake.
Thanks
Hi Simon, Data from D365 F&O can be directly exported to Azure Data Lake without first exporting to BYOD. Please find below article on how it can be done. Please note that BYOD supports Data entities but Azure Data Lake supports tables only and currently have limitation of 350 tables which might be reason your team might be suggesting to export to BYOD first.

SQL queries in BYOD Database might be written for Data Transformation for reporting, this can be handled in Azure Synapse.
Thanks Mohit. Answers my question
Hi Mohit,
Do you know of there is a plan to do something with the 350 limit? we will not be able to move from BYOD to lake completely with this limit in place.

Hi JoernHe, We are in discussion with Microsoft on same and I believe many customers have already raised this concern. There is no timeline for plan to increase the limit but I believe Microsoft have to make Azure Data Lake capable enough to match BYOD capabilities and more. We are using BYOD currently and cannot move to Data Lake till 350 limit is removed or increased.
Thank you for your reply. Lets hope they can sort this out quickly.
