Enterprise management and governance are keys to scaling Power Platform
In other words, how do we get beyond individuals or pockets of people doing great things with the technology (PowerApps, Power BI, Flow, Common Data Service, Dynamics) and rather spread the benefits of the technology across the entire business so that everyone, every department and office in the organization benefits from Power Platform’s incredible capability?
Power Platform is all PLATFORM: Driving value, lowering costs, and building your organization’s future with Microsoft’s next great business technology
We don’t invest in one-off apps anymore, i.e. a CRM in one corner of your network where you run your sales, something in another where you manage your delivery, clunky Human Resources Management off over there where you take care of your people, etc.. No, what we care about here is the platform where you integrate all of the above — not through monolithic one-size-fits-all ERP — but rather through elegant app experiences across all your users’ devices that tie back to that magical Common Data Service.
Three Trends Changing the Business Applications Landscape
The business intelligence, automation, and enterprise application landscape is changing dramatically. In the previous incarnation of enterprise technology, line-of-business owners were forced to choose between pre-baked commercial off the shelf (COTS) software, which was difficult to customize and often did not truly meet the business’s unique needs, or custom solutions that (though flexible and often tailor-made to the business needs of the moment) cost more and were far riskier to develop and deploy.
