The New Microsoft Dynamics AX Ready to Take off

The New Microsoft Dynamics AX
Although we have been talking about the latest version of Microsoft Dynamics AX (aka “The new”, “AX 7” or “Rainier”) for some time, it was not until this week during the Microsoft Dynamics Technical Conference that a final version was released, pending the official launch we will see next week (more information here).
Some time ago I already published on this blog how to deploy on Azure a development/demo instance of the new Microsoft Dynamics, and the procedure hasn’t changed at all except that now we can see an option to deploy the final version. I recommend reviewing that article and start playing with it as soon as possible.


If you don’t want to or don’t have an Azure account, the self-contained version we’ve always had is also available for download, you can download it from the Connect page (requires a PartnerSource or CustomerSource login), from this link:
