Announcements related to Other apps related to D365Ops

Just thinking out load - With "Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations" moving towards this "new approach" by Microsoft, it is more and more important to understand the latest announcements. When I say "new standard", I meant the stage where most of the Microsoft products are moving towards.
  • Windows 10 - Seems like no more newer versions, but rather continous updates to keep the same version up to date.
  • Office 365 - is also one such standard.
  • Now Dynamics 365 maybe falls under the same category.

Microsoft annouces GA of AppService and Functions on Azure stack:

Early this month, Microsoft shared that Azure App service and Functions are generally available on Azure stack, i.e, Customers who intend to use it can go ahead, buy and use the service in their PROD environments.
Now customers can deploy their application (be it D365fFO or any other) in the environment of their choice with App Service - the public cloud, Virtual network or on-premises with Azure stack.

End of Mainstream support for NAV 2013 and NAV 2013 R2:

Not directly related to Dynamics 365 / AX, however lies in the same family. Microsoft announced that on January 9, 2018, the mainstream support for Dynamics NAV 2013 and Dynamics NAV 2013 R2 will be discontinued.

So the recommendation for all the customers still running on these versions of NAV is to upgrade to a newer version of Dynamcis NAV to continue to recieve support from Microsoft.

Hope this helps. Good day!
