We are proud to announce the availability of the public preview for Cloud and Edge Scale Units for Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management.
Cloud and edge scale units for Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management deliver on two key business objectives:
One important foundation for cloud and edge scale units is a hybrid multi-node topology for Supply Chain Management. We have evolved the Dynamics 365 architecture into a loosely coupled system that runs selective business processes in a distributed model.
'Scale units' are the environments that run those business processes, where all computation capacity is reserved for the processes and data in the assigned workloads.
'Workloads' define the set of business processes, data, and including rules, validation, and ownership that can run on scale units. The preview capabilities include a workload for manufacturing execution and one for warehouse execution. These workloads bring the processes and data from the execution phase of the manufacturing and warehouse processes into the scale units.
Learn more in the documentation for Cloud and Edge Scale Units for Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management, which also contains information about how to the preview works and how to engage and stay tuned for more information on the capabilities.
Great feauture.
In addition to this functionality, are there any plans to run and working with the WMS app in an offline environment, such as a warehouse where no connection is or where the connection is poor due to building constraints of the warehouse. This would be a great addition, especially for customers who do not want to invest in expensive networks. Functionality would be that the work is loaded on a device, executed on the device and synced with the back-end when the device is in a connection area.
Here is a first blog post on the topic
