Hosting Microsoft Dynamics in the Cloud – evaluating IaaS, PaaS and SaaS

Image
Application hosting is, debatably, the most popular use case in modern cloud computing. By moving on-premise applications to a scalable cloud infrastructure, you eliminate the need for costly hardware purchases, maintenance, updates and other IT headaches. Put simply, by hosting your applications, you reduce your IT costs and free up the department for things that matter. As part of a select group of Microsoft Dynamics Partners called  Cloud Solution Providers (CSP) , we address the full range of possible cloud uses for your business, bringing together Dynamics, Office 365, Power BI, Azure and managed IT services under a common umbrella (and one monthly bill). In fact, Microsoft's new and innovative platform, Dynamics 365, consolidates these apps and services on one common data model for truly connected business processes, which you can  read more about here .

What is Cloud. And what are IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS?

The word " Cloud " is getting more heard and used with days passing by. So what actually is a Cloud (or) a Cloud platform (or) Cloud computing (or) Cloud services. Basically these are platform, computing ability, services respectively which are hosted in some part of the world and are accessible over  Internet .  To understand the best, we can take an example like electricity. In general, You just use electricity as an  utility  and pay according to the usage. You would seldom have to build, maintain and generate your own electricity - because of the comfort you receive using electricity as an utility. Cloud services can be mapped to the same concept.  Cloud computing services  can be of three kinds,  private ,  public  and  hybrid . And they act as the name suggests. Many articles can be found in the internet on the definitions, pros and cons.  By  Ajit kumar Guttula

July 2017 update: Form Adaptors Replaced by Type Providers

The July 2017 update of Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations, Enterprise edition includes many new features and changes. One of our new features is  type providers . Type providers are a new way to interface with forms in unit tests without a form adapter model. Previously, when a developer built or changed a form they would also have to add the adapter for the form to the same solution and rebuild the model to see the new form changes in test code. Type providers provide instant design time support, so that tests can access forms. With type providers, we have removed the need to maintain a form adapter model and the need for extra compile time to generate and compile the form adapter model. We removed the form adapter models in the July 2017 update because they are expensive to run and maintain. In general, the type provider framework requires less processing time, and is more flexible to use than the form adapter models.
