How does Mobile First Server communicate with Operational Analytics? - ibm-mobilefirst

I'm preparing for MFP7 deployment. I would like to deploy MFP server into DMZ zone and Operational Analytics into corporate LAN which is separated by DataPower.
I'm looking for info on format of the data that is forwarded to Operational Analytics by MFP server. Is it JSON or XML?

The data send from the client application to the Operational Analytics server is sent in JSON format.

How to Connect to OnPremise SQL Server from SSMS in Azure VM usign Hybrid Connection Manager

This question is bit on the Reverse Side of Connecting via SSMS from Azure VM to on premise SQL Server.
Can Hybrid connection Manager be used to configure connectivity between Onpremise and Azure such that i can use SSMS from Azure VM to connect to OnPremise SQL Server?
I don't think you can use Hybrid connection Manager to connect between On-premise and Azure network. As far as I know, the HCM is a relay agent and included in a partition of hybrid connection feature. The hybrid connection feature consists of two outbound calls to Azure Service Bus Relay.
For example, if you want web apps in the app service to access the DB in the on-premise network. There is a connection from a library on the host where your app is running in App Service. There is also a connection from the HCM to Service Bus Relay. See how it works. Also, The new Hybrid Connections capability of Relay is a secure, open-protocol evolution based on HTTP and WebSockets. In this case, you could not create a Hybrid Connection from Azure VM to Service Bus Relay via SSMS.
So, If you want to connect the on-premise SQL server from Azure VM via SSMS, you need to set up a VPN connection between Azure and your on-premise network. Read more details about VPN gateway.

Is There a Local Emulator for the Azure Data Lake Store

When developing for Azure storage accounts, I can run the Microsoft Storage Emulator to locally keep Blobs, Queues, and Tables without having to connect to Azure online.
Is there something equivalent for the Azure Data Lake Store? It would be nice to develop locally for a while without having to connect to Azure online.
Have you tried Visual Studio with the Azure Data Lake Tools plug-in?
As pointed out by David, you can develop Azure Data Lake Analytics (ADLA) projects locally without needing connectivity to Azure for the ADLA account or the associated Azure Data Lake Store (ADLS) account. Is there some other application you would like to use with ADLS?
Thanks,

Same problem here.
AFAIK the Storage Emulator is not yet able to really handle Data Lake (ADSL Gen2) Requests.
This Uri works (but looks for a file, not a dir):
http://127.0.0.1:10000/devstoreaccount1/packages-container/Dir/SubDir?sv=2020-04-08&se=2022-10-13T14%3A43%3A39Z&sr=b&sp=rcwl&sig=d2SxwYCkJGyx%2BHac9vntYQZOTt5QVs1bKgKb4%2FgcQ9k%3D
This one doesn't:
Error: Status: 403 (Server failed to authenticate the request. Make sure the value of the Authorization header is formed correctly including the signature.)
ErrorCode: AuthorizationFailure
http://127.0.0.1:10000/devstoreaccount1/packages-container/Dir/SubDir?sv=2020-04-08&se=2022-10-13T14%3A43%3A39Z&sr=d&sp=rcwl&sdd=2&sig=KU%2Fcu6W0Nsv8CucMgusubo8RbXWabFO8nDMkFxU1tTw%3D
The difference is that the second one uses the resource 'sr=d' (directory) while the first uses 'sr=b' (blob).
Both items are working on real Azure Storage (with ADSL Gen2).
The request is already tracked here: https://github.com/Azure/Azurite/issues/553
Tested on VS 2022 17.3.6 using Server: Azurite-Blob/3.18.0

Mobilefirst platform analytics v7.1 Analytics Server does not receive Server logs (WASND)

I installed MobileFirst Platform Operational Analytics v7.1 on WASND v8.5.4 and successfully configure it to receive data captures from MobileFirst Server. Although I can receive Data like network response time, device information etc...I can't not receive any Server Logs and client Logs. I have been trying to search on internet from last week but I don't see any solution for this.
Could you please advice me any clue so solve this problem ?
Dear Idan and Chevy Hungerfold,
I actually install MFP server and Analytic Server in different WAS environment. In fact, MFP server is in WASND when Analytics server is in WAS standard on another separated machine.
I doubt that Server log and Client Log is not forwarded through network from MFP server to Analytcis server. It requires MFP and Analytics be installed in the same WAS environment in order to get Server log and client log from Analytic console.
Is my hypothesis correct ?

Can Reporting service on sql server web edition running on azure virtual machine use the azure database as the data source?

Since the azure database not support the reporting service anymore, I have to use a reporting service on a sql server running on an azure virtual machine to get the reporting service for my azure websites. The azure websites uses the reporting service web services to provides the report functions to users.
My question is, Can the web edition work for that purpose? Or has to be at least standard edition.
The standard edition even for 1 core costs 410$ per month + the virtual machine cost. Which does not make any sense to me at all, because we only use the reporting services on that sql server running on the virtual machine.
Can web edition reporting service connect to the azure database as the data source?
You need to have Standard Edition or higher for connecting to remote data sources.
In Web Edition Reporting Services only supports connecting to a local Web Edition of SQL Server DbEngine. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc645993.aspx#Reporting
