How to Choose the Right ADO.NET Provider for Dynamics 365

May 10, 2026 By Dereck Mushingairi In Devart
Without a dedicated Dynamics 365 connector, software engineers can spend up to 50% of their time building custom integrations instead of shipping core features. They get pulled into JSON handling, OAuth setup, and OData limits, which slows everything down. A dedicated ADO.NET provider changes all that. It lets teams query CRM data with SQL, use familiar C# tools, and plug into ORMs like Entity Framework or Dapper, making it a practical dynamics CRM connector for modern.NET applications.

.NET Web API Monitoring: REST, ASP.NET & WCF Compared

Dec 17, 2025 By Dotcom-Monitor In Dotcom-Monitor
Modern.NET applications rely on three primary Web API architectures: lightweight REST APIs, middleware-driven ASP.NET Core Web APIs, and contract-heavy WCF SOAP services. Each exposes functionality over HTTP, but each behaves very differently in production. More importantly, each architecture fails in different ways, which means teams must monitor them differently to maintain reliability, uptime, and predictable performance.
