Without an API, the feature might as well just not exist...

Yannick (a Microsoft 365 Development & Business Applications MVP) was born and raised in SharePoint, starting his career in 2011 when SharePoint 2010 was still new and shiny. The changing reality of the cloud made him expand his knowledge to the whole of Microsoft 365, Azure, and Power Platform. He is a Managing Partner and Cloud Solution Architect at Qubix, a Belgium-based consultancy firm, responsible for the technical underpinnings of products and solutions. Problem-solving and development are his passions, and he is still working day-to-day with code. He always asks the important questions: How does it work? What do you want to achieve? Does it have an API? Do we really need development for this? Where's the coffee?

Architectural and technological considerations when implementing a Dual-Write integration

The only thing you hear about Dual-Write integrations are horror stories, people unhappy with the technology, the implementation process, or the result within their project. Finding a success story feels a lot like searching for a needle in a haystack. Guro and Yannick truly believe dual-write could be a viable integration solution between Dataverse and F&O. Guro works a lot with customers on the architecture phase of dual-write implementations: discussing what data needs to be synced, does it all need to be there or is a subset enough? How to design the integration, what mappings are needed, and how does it all fit together? Yannick looks at dual-write from the technology implementation side: what do we get out of the box, what is missing and needs some custom development trickery? Combining both their experiences in this one session will give you the tools and knowledge to make your next dual-write implementation a success!
