With v14.1, the DevExpress Dashboard allows you to connect a dashboard to a SQL database with a large number of records using the Server Mode. The main server mode feature is that data-related operations are performed on the server side, while in default data binding modes, these operations are performed on the client side.
After the upgrade, the Server Side data processing mode is automatically enabled for all SQL Server data sources. It is possible to switch data processing mode using the ribbon menu or by setting the DataSource.DataProcessingMode property in code:
C#DataSource dataSource = DashboardDesigner.Dashboard.DataSources[0];
dataSource.DataProcessingMode = DataProcessingMode.Server;
*Note: After converting a project to a newer version, it is necessary to update the ribbon by executing the Create Ribbon command from the DashboardDesigner smart tag menu.
Hi Guys, Any estimated time frame for the Server Mode data processing feature?
I am afraid at present I cannot provide you with any estimated time frame, because we have not established the release date for this feature. You will receive a notification when it is implemented.
Hi,
Are you planning to introduce this feature in the new version (14.1) or not?
I'm interessted too! ^-^
And me. Dashboard Loading performance is very slow.
Either implement server mode or give us a better way to do it, like with the PivotGrid, where we can handle sums, groups and more to write our own SQL commands.
I definitely need this! In fact, having just got round to looking at the Dashboard (been meaning to for some time), I am disappointed that it's not really suitable for large amounts of data, I am a heavy user of XPO and the XPServerCollectionSource for that reason. Let's be honest, any data analysis that's worth doing is going to involve a sizeable amount of data. I hope this feature is on the cards…
Simon Smith is certainly right and would also like to see this feature

I need this to. Is there a scheduled date for the release ?
My customers want a date.
This feature will be introduced in version 14.1, which should be released at the end of May.
Good news! I look forward to the next release…
