ADXStudio portal 101

Posted on by 365

This is going to be a very basic question regarding ADXStudio to help my understanding of what it can do.

My organisation has Dynamics 365 Online. We allow customers to login through our website to update their details, their organisations details and if they are a member, to access special areas of the website. We want to do much more but are limited by functionality. It currently works by using an in-house authentication system (developed after Mozilla dropped persona) and then uses a PostgreSQL database to capture details behind the website and then passes them to Dynamics and back the other way.

I am wondering whether this could be replaced with ADXStudio. Is this what this product can allow you to do? Can we install it alongside existing websites we own and are hosted elsewhere or do they need to be hosted on ADX?

Thanks

    It is hard to give you a definitive answer without the full requirements, but everything you describe above should be possible with the new portal capabilities of Dynamics 365.  The catch will be your authentication system.  Portals will authenticate using standard open protocols such as OpenID Connect (preferred), SAMLP, or WS-Fed.  Portals cannot use a non-standard authentication system or an inhouse developed system that doesn't use one of the above protocols.  As for your question about hosting, most of our customers use a separate domain name for their portal.  For example, you can have your marketing site (www.mycompany.com) hosted on any technology and have members.mycompany.com hosted on portals.  Using an SSO configuration, you can have multiple sites all using the same federated credentials (using one of the protocols above).  I hope this information is helpful.
