Splitting Instance

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Sheikh Sohail 6,125

Hi Experts

Due to enough users and different operations load, a Microsoft expert suggests that we go with a split instance approach in my current project. As we have a really big community here, and I need to understand from all of my community mates what kind of challenges we can face while moving from signal instances to multiple instances.

Some of the following challenges I knew.

  • Code state management.
  • Batch management.
  • Licensing Cost (if some users want to work on both instances?)
  • Deployment management.
  • More maintenance/support resources(In person) are required.

Important

We have completed enough performance improvement in almost all areas.

I have the same question (0)

    Hi Sheikh Sohail,

    this would mean that you have two separate LCS Implementation projects and two sets of systems (at least Prod and one Sandbox tier 2 where you validate the deployable packages).

    I would start by going through this article: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/fin-ops-core/fin-ops/get-started/implement-multiple-projects-aad-tenant

    But also discuss with the Microsoft expert who suggested this to you.

    Thanks nmaenpaa

    Thank you for sharing the blog, and Yes, we will have two separate LCS implementations(Prod) in the same Azure Tenant. As we are already in discussion with Microsoft and the same time I would need some valuable feedback from the community if they had experienced multiple instances.

    We are using two separate LCS implementation projects in one tenant and both projects are having different business operations, they are different projects.

    We have separate DEVOps projects and code deployments and bought separate licenses for each of them.

    Hi Wajahat

    Thank you very much for your reply.

    Would it be possible for you to share a little more detail here, about the advantages and disadvantages of this approach (except the ones mentioned on MS docs)?

    what was the reason, why you moved to the multiple instances approach?

    After the implementation, have you achieved your objective?

    What was the improvement after the implementation of the multiple instances approaches?

    What kind of issues you are suffering now?

    what are the disadvantages?

    Do we have data sync between additional instances and the primary instance?
