⚡ Are Your Dataverse Customizations Slowing Down Performance? ⚡

Developers often assume that Dataverse can handle anything, but poor design leads to slow queries, SQL timeouts, and deadlocks!

✅ Avoid long transactions
✅ Optimize queries for better performance
✅ Use batch processing the right way

Learn how to design scalable Dataverse customizations in our latest blog! 🚀

📢 In late 2024, we launched a collaboration between The Carpentries and the Generalist Repository Ecosystem Initiative (GREI), aiming to explore how generalist data repositories such as #Dataverse, #Dryad, #Figshare, Mendeley Data, Open Science Framework, #Vivli, and #Zenodo might be more intentionally woven into the data skills we teach. 🌟

In the process, we also asked ourselves some important questions:
❓ What would it look like if open data repositories weren’t just add-ons at the end of a workflow, but upfront teaching concepts in our lessons?
❓ How can we position generalist repositories as active components in retrieving and processing datasets?
❓How can we give researchers the tools not just to write clean code, but to publish their work in ways that make it reusable and citable by others?

Learn about the important steps we have taken in this collaboration toward co-creating new lesson content: carpentries.org/blog/2025/06/u 👏

The Carpentries · Building Skills with Generalist Repositories: An Update on the Carpentries + GREI CollaborationIn late 2024, we launched a collaboration between The Carpentries and the Generalist Repository Ecosystem Initiative (GREI), aiming to explore how generalist data repositories such as Dataverse, Dryad, Figshare, Mendeley Data, Open Science Framework, Vivli, and Zenodo might be more intentionally woven into the data skills we teach. Since then, we’ve taken important steps toward that vision by co-creating new lesson content, running an in-person workshop, and inviting the community into a broader conversation about data sharing and discoverability.

5. The next SharePoint? If we'd only look at what's the data source for canvas apps out there, #Dataverse is nowhere near #SharePoint. Yet the more MS is aiming for an agentic future of work, the bigger the demand for a platform that could orchestrate such human-AI collaboration. I expect Dataverse to have a growing footprint here.

2. Governance toolkit for IT admins. No matter how the in-product features improve, practical governance of apps, flows and now agents still often requires customer specific activities - faciliated by #Dataverse and the growing number of 'Kits.

3. DevOps backbone for solution developers. Git integration and Power Platform Pipelines deliver built-in tooling that makes proper ALM accessible to a far broader audience than the earlier pro-dev driven custom pipelines.

After posting about the history of Microsoft #Dataverse last week, time to go back to the future. How is it used today in #PowerPlatform and beyond? I thought about it for a while and saw myself write about these 5 use cases.

1. "Enterprise data platform for #copilot ": The official MS marketing pitch, which bends the truth in usual ways, but is still partially correct. It would be more accurate if they left the "data" part away.

🧵

Hi folks, #Dataverse is new at MPOW and I have a question.
As it's set up now, at least, PDF previews in Yale Dataverse are set up such that you see the top of the page, scroll down to read the bottom of the page, and then click a "next" button to get to the next page. Not very convenient.
OSF and Zenodo both have preview viewers where PDFs can be scrolled through.
Is this something special about how Dataverse is set up here? Or is that just the way it is?
