​Application Lifecycle Management on Microsoft Power Platform

By: Benedikt Bergmann

Overview of this book

Managing Power Platform solutions manually can be challenging and time-consuming, as is application lifecycle management (ALM), which encompasses governance, development, and maintenance. This book provides comprehensive coverage of ALM, addressing planning, development, testing, deployment, and maintenance. Drawing on his extensive experience as a Power Platform consultant and Microsoft MVP, Benedikt Bergmann simplifies complex topics, making them accessible and easy to grasp. From planning and designing applications to deploying and maintaining them, this book provides step-by-step instructions, best practices, and real-world examples to effectively manage the entire application lifecycle. You’ll gain insights into optimizing Power Platform's toolbox, including Power Apps, Power Automate, Power Pages, and Power Virtual Agents, for seamless collaboration, agile development, and rapid application delivery. You’ll also implement best practices for version control, code management, and collaboration using the Microsoft Power Platform. By the end of this book, you’ll be equipped with the knowledge and skills to effectively manage the entire application lifecycle, accelerate development cycles, and deliver exceptional solutions with the Microsoft Power Platform.
