Performance Testing and Monitoring Tools allow you to measure the performance of a Dynamics 365 Business Central Server system and to detect and diagnose issues in production environments. Learning about the performance testing and monitoring tools will enable you to answer questions such as:

How do I determine if my Business Central Server deployment can support 100/300/500 users?
How can I measure the impact of changes to my Business Central Server solution or infrastructure?
How do I know what is happening on my Business Central Server when users experience performance issues?
How can I see what are the most expensive/frequent operations on my NAV Server?
