Explanation

To replace a long-running Dataverse plug-in, you can use Azure Functions to execute the heavy calculations asynchronously. The plug-in would trigger the Azure Function, and once the calculation is complete, the Azure Function can use a Dataverse connector or the Dataverse API to update the results back in Dataverse. This moves the long-running process out of the synchronous plug-in's 2-minute execution limit. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-apps/developer/data-platform/asynchronous-service
