With the introduction of CDS (Common Data Services), Microsoft has acknowledged the need for a unified mechanism to enrich the experience and coherency of the Microsoft ecosystem. Already, Microsoft Power Platform (PowerApps, Flow, Power BI) was built from the ground up with that exact idea in mind – bringing your data together to uncover insights, as well as customize and extend Office 365, Dynamics 365 and Azure capabilities.
Microsoft is calling it “One Dynamics 365.” This release is just the beginning of something bigger that Microsoft is cooking up in house. There is no doubt the future of the Microsoft Dynamics 365 ecosystem is going to be built upon the cloud, rich data exchange and seamless integrations. This is why you should consider Dynamics 365 for your next ERP solution: It is backed by a rich infrastructure from the ground up with capabilities that streamline the day-to-day life of the business – with tools and a user interface that your team is already used to.
