Today I had the pleasure of speaking about #MCP in the context of #msdynbc365 at #DynamicsCon Europe in Frankfurt. Although the "pleasure" was a bit reduced when I discovered this morning that the #Copilot chat windows in #VSCode got a new version over night and what was working perfectly

In the first #WindowOnTechnology podcast episode after a bit of a summer break, Jens Møller-Pedersen and Kennie Pontoppidan join the show to talk about the impact of AI on how #msdyn365bc is built. Check it out at podcast.tobiasfenster.io/2032825/epis...

Today I had the big pleasure of doing a little programming course together with my wife and @lippertmarkus.com at the elementary school of one of my sons, using MatataLabs. Everything digital and IT is very much work for me nowadays, although there is still quite some pleasure in it. 1/2

In my latest blog post, you can find information about small but not insignificant improvements to @docker.com Sandboxes, the #msdyn365bc AL MCP Server and #AIRunway. And I continue to be a Microsoft #MVPBuzz for the next 12 months 😊 See tobiasfenster.io/docker-sandb... for the details

If you've seen my recent blog post about @docker.com Sandbox Kits, you maybe noticed that I shared how credential injection works but not for #msdyn365bc. That was because I hadn't figured out how to do that yet 😊 Thanks to #Claude and the #Docker team, that changed: tobiasfenster.io/docker-sandb...

This year at @bctechdays.com, I had the pleasure to deliver a session around generating your own AI tools and the security angles of it with @lippertmarkus.com and also record a #WindowOnTechnology podcast episode about the conference and also #OpenClaw with @freddydk.bsky.social. #msdyn365bc

Have you heard of #BCQuality? I am getting insights by Agustín Leyenda Duarte, @bc.jeremy.vyska.info and @jespersw.bsky.social at @bctechdays.com, but you can also expect a #WindowOnTechnology episode on that soon 😊 #bctechdays #msdyn365bc

I am really happy and proud to have made it one more year! Thanks to @docker.com and especially Eva Bojorges for running an amazing community program of which I am part for one more year. Looking forward to continue writing and talking about #Docker!

AI is here to stay, so we need to talk about, but the tech side is slightly overtold... Therefore on the latest #WindowOnTechnology episode straight from #DynamicsMinds with Areti Iles and Magnus Sørensen we talk AI, but from a few different angles.

I am mostly working in the "pro dev" world and AI certainly had a huge impact on that already. But what about "makers" / "citizen devs"? Vivian Voss joined the latest episode of #WindowOnTechnology, recorded at #DynamicsMinds to answer that question: podcast.tobiasfenster.io/2032825/epis...

For the third time in as many years, I had the pleasure to attend the #ColorCloud conference and as always it was a blast! Talking about MCP in #msdyn365bc, sneaking in a bit of #Docker agent and meeting many great people (including @simonofhh.bsky.social), nothing left wanting 😊

Tobias Fenster @tobiasfenster.io · 31/03/2026

Interacting with an LLM often means just accepting that the infrastructure below it is a black box. With the help of #AIRunway running on top of #KAITO and #AKS, you can easily change that and here is my blog post explaining how: tobiasfenster.io/deploy-llms-...

By now, most devs working with AI will know about MCP servers and use them daily. Product managers / owners maybe not so much.

Nachdem es im letzten Jahr leider nicht geklappt hat, freue ich mich umso mehr, dass ich dieses Jahr wieder bei der #ADC (adc.ms/26/) dabei sein kann. Diesmal sprechen @lippertmarkus.com und ich über "GitOps - Infrastructure as Code, aber richtig". Sehen wir uns?

Already the 3. year running, I am very happy and proud to speak at #ColorCloud in April 2026, this time talking about #MCP and how it works in #msdyn365bc. If you look for a really special and colorful conference, I can only ask you to take a very close look at this amazing event. See you there?

Time flies and it's already been a while, but I want to share the amazing experience of visiting #AWS in Seattle for the first time. From tech of course including AI through leadership and organizational insights to networking, I really learned a ton, enjoyed it a lot and hope to be back soon.

If you were at #DirectionsEMEA today, you can't have missed the the #msdyn365bc MCP Server. If not, you still might have heard about it. I couldn't resist to immediately give it a spin and here are my notes on how to use it with @vscode.dev or @docker.com's cagent: tobiasfenster.io/using-the-bu...

Very different conferences, very different audiences, but also very much fun at all of those events! To finish that stretch, I had the chance to visit Microsoft in Lyngby for the #msdyn365bc MVP Summit with a ton of highly interesting information and networking.

Being active as a speaker and member of community programs comes with quite a bit of work and it certainly can be exhausting, but it also gives a lot of energy and pleasure. I recently had the chance to speak at DynamicsMinds, European BizApps and AI & Cloud Summit as well as @bctechdays.com.

Ich verstehe es so: Der Vierervergleich ergibt 1. CHE (4:2), 2./3. WUE / HDB (je 3:3), 4. BER (2:4). Daher ist CHE fix 1, BER fix 4. Danach wird der Zweiervergleich HDB / WUE aufgemacht. Da ist es 1:1, aber HDB ist wegen des Korbverhältnis vorn. D.h. ich denke der Dreiervergleich wird nicht gemacht
