Microsoft Dynamics 365: Finance and Operations Apps Solution Architect — Question 29

A company is implementing Dynamics 365 Finance and discussing solutions for data analytics.

The company has the following business requirements:

• Use data from external sources in addition to Dynamics 365 Finance data.
• Collect data from devices for reporting.
• Continuously export data from Dynamics 365 without user intervention.

You need to recommend a solution.

What should you recommend?

Answer options

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The recommended solution is Azure Data Lake because it allows for the storage and analysis of large volumes of data from various external sources, including device data, while enabling continuous data export from Dynamics 365 without manual input. Power BI is primarily a visualization tool and does not fulfill the requirement for continuous data export. Bring your own database (BYOD) and Entity store do not support the same level of external data integration and continuous data flow as Azure Data Lake.
