What is Microsoft Dataverse? 

Microsoft Dataverse acts as the data foundation for the Microsoft Power Platform. As a cloud-based platform, Microsoft Dataverse offers a secure and efficient way for businesses to store, manage, and make the most of their data. Because of its user-friendly low-code approach, it requires minimal technical skills and is accessible to a broad range of users.

Microsoft Dataverse functions as a database, allowing businesses to store data in standard or custom-made tables. It is designed to be flexible and scalable, so you can easily add or remove tables and columns as your needs change. You can also define relationships between tables and apply business logic and security rules to your data.

In addition, it integrates with other Power Platform applications, offering a comprehensive solution for data management and analysis. Power Apps, Power Automate, and Power BI can be used in conjunction with Microsoft Dataverse to create custom apps, automate processes and workflows, and analyze and visualize data to gain new business insights.

This allows you to create powerful model-driven apps using your external data, making it easier to derive insights and act on your data.
