Industry accelerators - Dynamics 365 - Introduction - 1

   Microsoft has introduced Industry accelerators which provide specific industry vertical solutions. This blog series is to discuss and learn about the latest in the Industry accelerator updates including the Oct. Wave-2 release.

What are Industry Accelerators ? - 

  • They are Industry specific vertical solutions as envisioned by Microsoft. 
  • They are built upon the foundational components within Microsoft Power Platform and Dynamics 365
  • Microsoft has made them freely available on the AppSource an Github. 


There are currently 7 Industry Accelerators - 
  1. Automotive
  2. Education
  3. Financial Services
  4. HealthCare
  5. Manufacturing
  6. Media and Communications
  7. Non Profit
The above accelerators is also an opportunity for ISVs and developers who can build upon and extend them to create their own industry specific vertical solutions 


As a Dynamics 365 - solution architect / business consultant, this helps to understand specific industry business scenario. It also can help to guide you on how best to design a solution for the industry specific requirements. 
In my future blogs I will write more about each of the industry accelerators, the latest updates and I hope it helps to provide more insights in the specific industry verticals.

Thanks for reading.
