In today’s fast-paced digital landscape, data is the lifeblood of decision-making. Did you know that 67% of enterprises rely on integrated data solutions to support their analytics and BI platforms? Moreover, 81% of business leaders have increased their investment in data and analytics, and 74% are pouring more resources into AI initiatives. These statistics underline a crucial trend: organizations are placing a growing emphasis on utilizing data, analytics, and AI to enhance business performance and achieve their goals.

The Need for Optimized Analytics Architecture

As businesses prioritize analytics and AI, it’s essential to rethink and optimize your architecture to fully unlock the potential of these models. As a trusted Microsoft partner, we guide organizations like yours to maximize the benefits of Azure and its powerful tools.

Introducing Microsoft Fabric: Revolutionizing Dynamics 365

Microsoft Fabric is redefining how Dynamics 365 users harness their data potential. With Microsoft Fabric, you get:

  • End-to-End Data Integration: Seamlessly connect data across platforms for a unified view.
  • Real-Time Analytics with AI-Driven Insights: Get actionable insights faster with advanced AI capabilities.
  • Future-Proof Scalability: Scale effortlessly as your enterprise grows, ensuring long-term success.

Seamless Integration with Dynamics 365

One of the most exciting recent developments from Microsoft is the general availability of Link to Microsoft Fabric, a no-copy, no-ETL direct link between Dataverse and Microsoft Fabric. If your organization uses Dynamics 365 or Power Platform with Power BI, Link to Fabric simplifies data integration, enabling low-code makers to securely derive AI-driven insights across business apps and data sources.

With Link to Fabric, you can seamlessly connect to Microsoft Fabric from the Analyze menu in the Power Apps maker portal. The system validates your configuration and lets you choose a Fabric workspace without leaving the portal. Once confirmed, all your tables are securely linked to a system-generated Synapse Lakehouse in the selected Fabric workspace. Your data remains in Dataverse, and any updates are reflected in Fabric in near real-time. This integration allows you to work with all Fabric workloads like SQL, Python, and Power BI without the need for data copies or complex pipelines.

Enhance Insights and Reduce TCO with Synapse Link

For Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations (F&O) customers, there’s better news. The Synapse Link for Dataverse service, built into Power Apps and the successor to the Export to Data Lake feature, is now generally available from Microsoft. By upgrading from the Export to Data Lake feature in F&O to Synapse Link, you benefit from improved configuration and enhanced performance, which translates to a reduction in total cost of ownership (TCO).
