FastTrack for Dynamics 365 is designed to help customers and partners achieve a successful deployment of Dynamics 365 solutions. FastTrack solution architects have engaged in over 2000+ successful implementations of Dynamics 365 apps. Learnings from these engagements are synthesized to bring scenario-based guidance with patterns (best practices or approaches to solving a problem) and anti-patterns (bad practices or approaches or misunderstandings) covering various areas of the solution.

This learning path helps customer/partner solution architects to adopt the best practices and avoid common pitfalls during the implementation. Even though the scenarios aren't exhaustive, this learning path will help the solution architect learn from the experiences of other implementations

Prerequisites

Modules in this learning path

The integration strategy is an essential part of any implementation. Correct planning and design are key factors for ensuring a robust and flexible architecture. Failing to use the correct integration approach can lead to delays in the project and impact the quality of the overall implementation. This module provides perspective on how to approach integration by using scenario-based approaches and guidance on good patterns and anti-patterns.

Business intelligence and reporting is an essential part of any implementation. This module helps solution architects become aware of common pitfalls (anti-patterns) to avoid them. Additionally, it explains the best practices (good patterns) that solution architects should follow when gathering and solving business intelligence and reporting needs.

Data migration is an essential part of any implementation. Follow the best practices (patterns) that are outlined in this module and avoid common pitfalls (anti-patterns).

Learn about recommended practices (patterns) and how to avoid common pitfalls (anti-patterns) to help ensure that your approach aligns with recommended practices when you're implementing security in finance and operations apps.

Performance testing and optimization of finance and operations apps is an essential part of any implementation. This module provides a perspective on how to build an efficient system by using scenario-based approaches and guidance on good patterns (best practices) and anti-patterns (common pitfalls).
