Looking for Deployment and connectivity from Infrastructure point of view 

While looking for MS Dynamics as Product searching on Google I came up with some many different names like

MS Dynamics Online, MS Dynamics CRM Online, Dynamics Online, MS Dynamics 365 and so on.

is there any document gives detailed explanation of various "Deployment Scenarios" and "connectivity" options for Cloud based Service from Microsoft . This could be SaaS Cloud which is delievered as Service or Hosted Solution (Iaas) with combination on Cloud and Edge.

I am looking for Document which describes MS Dynamics CRM online Deployment architecture with Network connectivity (Site to Site VPN/ExpressRoute)

Thanks and Advance

    I need this information to propose network connectivity from my On-premise DataCenter to Microsoft CRM being deployed on Cloud with High availability and reliable connection to CRM software for end users either using internet or private dedicated connectivity

    Microsoft has changed up the branding for the CRM platform over the years, and the current name in use is "Microsoft Dynamics 365".

    They have both an online option that is hosted by them, and an on-premise option where you install and setup the servers, etc.

    The online option sounds like the one you want, and as far as network connectivity is concerned all you need is an internet connection. They host everything and you manage the deployment through an Office 365 tenant and Dynamics Admin console.

    There are some options available for 'Site to Site' and 'Express Route' to connect to Azure, but Dynamics does not require anything like that.  

    If you have a need to connect your Dynamics instance to some resources that are only available on your internal network, there are some options available, but they will be dependent on your specific needs.

    Good Luck!

    This is perfect Chris.

    I am looking for Cloud version "Microsoft Dynamics 365" which I believe just work the way Office365 works.

    So users with internet access should be able to access Dynamics using their Active Directory Credentials (provided ADFS and SSO configured)

    I appreciate your quick detailed response
