BC2ADLS. Business Central Data to Fabric or Data Lake

What is BC2ADLS?
BC2ADLS is a freeware tool that takes Dynamics Business Central Data to Microsoft Fabric or to a Data Lake.
It was originally built by 2 Microsoft Employees as an example on how data from Business Central could be made available for Analytics in Azure.
More info can be found here: https://github.com/microsoft/bc2adls
They are not supporting the tool anymore, but there are forks, like https://github.com/Bertverbeek4PS/bc2adls

Why use BC2ADLS
BC2ADLS is quite easy to setup on newer versions of Business Central - both in 365 versions and OnPrem versions. It is also quite performant.

BC2ADLS & Fabric or Data Lake
BC2ADLS consists of 2 parts:
- A Business Central component that export changes to Fabric or Data Lake,
- A Fabric/Azure Consolidation component, that consolidates the changes to the current data.

Building an azure cost monitoring solution
On top of an export of cost data from subscriptions and resource groups, a power bi cost analysis was built. Insights from building the tool will be shared
