Power Platform Architecture Powerclass
The Power Platform is a low-code platform , which is often mis-understood when it comes to Architecture design.
This tutorial is intended for architects to understand the platform, the out of the box features and the options when using a low code platform for software solutions. The tutorial is aimed at those both designing solutions and those having to sign those off in an enterprise environment. It takes the delegates from basic lowcode to complex integration, security and data solutions.
Join us for a workshop filled with examples of realife issues , funny stories and decades of experience in the enterprise space.
Topics being covered.
Understanding what being an Architect in Power platform means
What is power platform? Under the hood what is it and why is it more complex that it looks out of the box.
Levels of architect, based on complexity and requirements, what that means from a design approval, data model and security point of view.
What is truly lowcode and where do we extend through procode.
Example High Level design for Powerplatform or D365.
Creating a design
Business user designs,
IT & Developer Designs.
Secure by design
Data Sources and Connectors
Battle of the data sources , where should we build and when and why?
Consequences of data choices.
Application and automation choices
What options are there and when?
Is one better than the other?
Components and reusable assets
Integration Jungles
Connectors types and what to use when
Ways of connecting for different synchronisations
Integration Patterns , what works where.
Fabric
What is it and why does power platform care?
Using Fabric in solution designs
Using Power platform in Fabric designs
Copilots everywhere !
How do the copilots fit with my solutions and what do I need to think about
M365 Copilot -Copilot studio- Ai foundry, what do they do and when to use.
What about AI Builder?
Governance and security
Managed Environments
Data loss prevention
Purview
Group Exercises:
Designing a solution based on a scenario and your teams experience and knowledge , as well using what you have learnt to design the most cost effective and efficient solution.
Key takeaways
Lots of laughs, whilst understanding how the whole platform works together as well as improving understanding of integrations, use which connectors and tools, where Fabric and Copilots change the design and how to secure data end to end.
Learning the different ways we need to view solutions and designs and what is a full developer project down to a business build.
