USING AZURE EXPRESSROUTE WITH MICROSOFT POWER PLATFORM 

Do you have Dynamics 365 applications on-premise and are wondering about how to make use of the powerful cloud-based features of Azure for your on-premise application? Azure ExpressRoute is the answer to all your questions.

What is ExpressRoute?

ExpressRoute is an Azure Service. It is used to create private connections between Microsoft cloud data centers and the infrastructure that’s on your premises.

It also supports private connectivity to services, such as Microsoft 365, Microsoft Power Platform and Dynamics 365.

Advantages of using ExpressRoute

Transfer data between on-premises Devices and Azure, by using the ExpressRoute connections. That ensures that you get significant cost benefits.

Wondering how? Here’s how the entire model works:

If a user can connect to an ExpressRoute location, users can connect to other regions in the same location, without paying any additional price. For example, if you select London, users can send or retrieve data to or from any Azure region in London without paying an additional cost.

Solving today’s warehouse challenges

In a recent live session with our partner Tasklet Factory, we ran through:

  • How current warehouse challenges can be met
  • How processes can be optimised with Mobile WMSIf you would like to watch the recording, click below!

If the user sets an AzureExpressRoute circuit, they are able to access services within a virtual network and other Azure services simultaneously.

It offers higher security, reliability, speed and lower latency as compared to legacy connections.

You get the option of creating hybrid applications. This can come in handy if you are looking at scenarios where you want the communication traffic with your corporate customers not going through the public internet. You can achieve this using ExpressRoute by creating a hybrid model whereas you run a corporate intranet application in Azure and get your customers authenticated with an on-premise active directory service.

MICROSOFT RAISES THE SECURITY STANDARD FOR NEXT MAJOR WINDOWS SERVER RELEASE

Server security and platform Integrity are critical requirements in today’s datacentre, edge, and cloud environments. Many Windows Server customers have relied on built-in security capabilities such as Secure boot and BitLocker to protect their infrastructure.

In the next major release, Microsoft will raise the security standard for Windows Server hardware certification to include these capabilities by default. This change will give customers increased confidence they are deploying Windows Server on platforms that maximize platform integrity without having to modify their RFP process. The new Windows Server certification will require TPM 2.0 installed and enabled by default. For systems that have the next major Windows Server preinstalled, Secure Boot will be enabled by default.

These changes will enhance and automate built-in security on the next major Windows Server release.
