Dynamics 365 DBMS

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hello,

I've done some research, but I'm unable to find the answer to these questions.

  • Dynamics 365 BDMS -> It looks like it is Azure SQL? Is this correct?
  • Dynamics 365 for HR DMBS? -> I can't find the answer

Does anyone know this? I would appreciate it.

Best regards,

Ana.

    Hi Ana Alves,

    "Dynamics 365 BDMS -> It looks like it is Azure SQL? Is this correct?"

    Not exactly. It uses a mixture of Azure SQL, Azure Blob, and Azure Data Lake. Please refer to this: What database does MS Dynamics 365 use to store its entities and records? Does CRM use its own database? - Microsoft Q&A

    "Dynamics 365 for HR DMBS? -> I can't find the answer"

    I'm unfamiliar with Dynamics 365 HR. You could post it at here for further help: Dynamics 365 Human Resources - Forums, Blogs, Support

    Hey Ana.

    If you read https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-platform/admin/backup-restore-environments there's a paragraph that says:
    "System backups occur continuously. The underlying technology used is Azure SQL Database. See SQL Database documentation Automated backups for details".  So it's correct:  The underlying DB service on CRM is Azure SQL Database.

    Regarding D365 HR, according to https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/human-resources/hr-admin-setup-copy-instance, this is using Lifecycle Services (LCS)so probably, this is also using AzureSQL as DB service
