Overview

We are happy to inform you about some major enhancements we have made to the Cosmos platform. These enhancements cover two of the most requested features from our customers and we look forward to rolling out several more features in the near future.

Highlights of this release include:

• Announcing our New Lightning-Fast Data Engine
• Users Can Schedule Reports Monthly

Announcing our New Lightning-Fast Data Engine

Our engineering team has been hard at work over the past few months building out a new and improved platform to bring in and clean up your Business Central data. By leveraging our teams' decades of experience working with BC and NAV, we have been able to optimize how data is loaded from Business Central into Cosmos. This improvement, which was pushed out this week, has been resulting in median performance improvements of 27x faster pipeline loads across our customer base. Not 27%, but 27 times faster! 

We are seeing many customers' nightly updates and on-demand updates go from 30 minutes to 20 seconds, or from 15 minutes to 10 seconds, for example. 

In addition, we moved the "Last Run Detail" front and center in the Data Management section, so users no longer need to go to a separate area to view the status of the last pipeline run:

Furthermore, this update almost completely eliminates the need for any "full loads" of your data in the future, ensuring that when you're working in the data management area that only tables and fields that you have added, for example, need to be brought it. This new intelligent data management architecture will be a game changer in terms of quickly iterating on your data model and building reports.

Users Can Schedule Reports Monthly

We have also improved our report scheduling functionality so that users can now schedule reports to run on a monthly basis. For example, there may be reports that you only want to run on the 15th, 22nd, and last day of the month, and that is now possible within Cosmos by clicking the "Monthly" option when scheduling reports and then simply picking the days of the month that you'd like the report to run on.
