Explore the built-in ORDA client/server optimizations.

Using ORDA to access large tables (especially tables with relations) in client/server mode has been greatly enhanced with 2-3xs improved LAN performance and up to 30xs faster WAN performance.

Goals

These optimizations are implemented automatically to limit the exchanges between clients and the server. Understanding these optimizations is the first step to using ORDA effectively. Knowing how to manage them to ensure top performance is the second step.

4D automatically detects the fields (including related fields) necessary for an operation and only transfers those fields. In addition, multiple records are packed into a single packet to reduce latency in WAN networks.

In this session, we’ll explore these natively offered optimizations and how to best control them.

Principles are explained using both slides and easy-to-reproduce demonstrations to give you a reliable methodology to apply.
