Question

A company is implementing Microsoft Power Platform. The company currently stores data in a SQL Server database. You need to explain the key benefits of Dataverse compared to SQL Server. Which three benefits should you explain? Each correct answer presents part of the solution. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

Options

  • AData schema changes can be made without any knowledge of code.
  • BExisting Dynamics 365 customer engagement apps integrate natively with Dataverse.
  • CDataverse has multiple extensibility options within Microsoft Azure.
  • DAdministrators can manage all aspects of the underlying platform.
  • EDataverse can be hosted on different cloud providers to improve resiliency.

Explanation

Dataverse provides benefits over SQL Server, including low-code schema changes, native integration with Dynamics 365, and extensive Azure extensibility.

Common mistakes.

  • D. Dataverse is a managed service, meaning Microsoft manages the underlying infrastructure and platform, so administrators do not manage all aspects, unlike with a self-hosted SQL Server.
  • E. Dataverse is a Microsoft cloud service and is hosted exclusively within Microsoft Azure, not across different cloud providers, though its data can be replicated for resiliency within Azure regions.
