We have successfully migrated our on-prem D365 to the cloud, and we are currently satisfied with our cloud environment. However, I have been hearing that we need to have a Landing Zone within our Azure architecture.
From my understanding, a Landing Zone is primarily required when adding more servers to the cloud. Since we are using Microsoft D365 as a service, I’d like clarification on whether a Landing Zone is necessary in our case or if our current setup is sufficient.

If you're only using D365 as a service, the Landing Zone might not be necessary. D365 is a SaaS (Software as a Service) offering, meaning Microsoft manages the underlying infrastructure for you.

Your current setup could be sufficient if you're not hosting additional workloads or custom applications in Azure.

But if you're integrating D365 with other Azure services, for example, using Azure for custom apps, data analytics, or other workloads, a Landing Zone can help ensure proper governance, security, and scalability across your Azure environment.
