Swimming in Azure Data Lake with Dynamics 365 CE

Microsoft recently introduced the Export to Azure Data Lake functionality (now called Azure Synapse Link) that greatly simplifies data replication from Dynamics 365 to external storage. Data Lakes are designed to store large amounts of data at a lower cost than traditional SQL-based storage. Within a few clicks, customers can link their CE (Dataverse) environment to a data lake in their Azure subscription and synchronize entities with the data lake.

In this demo-heavy session, we will walk through the configuration and how you can take advantage of it. This includes how you can report directly from the Azure Data Lake using Power BI and the options available for enabling Data Lake inside of Azure Synapse.
