D365 Business Central Deployment to Azure Cloud

Microsoft Azure is a cloud computing service created by Microsoft for building, testing, deploying and managing applications like Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central. Dynamics 365 Business Central can be deployed into the Microsoft Azure datacenters. Microsoft may replicate customer data to other regions available within the same geography for data durability. However, Microsoft does not control or limit the locations from which customers or their end users may access customer data. Dynamics 365 Business Central on Azure services migrates current customer workloads onto Azure to deliver the flexibility and functionality of cloud.

Following options are available in this:-

NAV Service Tier and SQL Server on separate Azure VMs

Dynamics 365 Business Central as a SAAS

In the SaaS model, the system is hosted in the cloud which is managed and maintained by Microsoft professionals rather than traditional IT infrastructure model where your ERP system is hosted locally. This deployment model, which is in the cloud, is a monthly fee per user. The back end Infrastructure is managed by Microsoft and the software is accessed through a browser. Business Central SaaS is governed by Microsoft’s Modern Lifecycle Policy that ensures that there are continuous service updates and a major update to the product every 6 months, in April and October. Business Central SaaS is slightly more limited in terms of scope for customization, however you can still utilize Extensions 2.0 to enhance your solution.

Navision Migration to Business Central On-premise

D365 Business Central provides you the flexibility to deploy it on the premise. For this, you need to buy perpetual licenses which means you own them outright, or through a subscription model which is priced per user/month. Though, Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central on-premises gives you more freedom and control, however, you require expert time like us to keep the system well maintained and secure at all times.
