Pro Microsoft Power Platform

Autor Mitchell Pearson, Brian Knight, Devin Knight, Manuel Quintana
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 8 oct 2020

Subliniem că ecosistemul Microsoft abordat în acest volum este unul integrat, concentrându-se pe triada esențială pentru productivitatea modernă: PowerApps, Power Automate și Power BI. Considerăm că forța acestei lucrări rezidă în abordarea practică a conceptului de „citizen developer”, oferind instrumentele necesare pentru a construi soluții de business complexe fără a necesita cunoștințe avansate de programare. Dacă Transitioning to Microsoft Power Platform de David Ding v-a oferit cadrul teoretic necesar înțelegerii ecosistemului, această carte oferă instrumentele practice și pașii tehnici pentru implementarea efectivă a fluxurilor de lucru. Structura este riguros organizată pentru a asigura o progresie logică a competențelor. Primele secțiuni sunt dedicate dezvoltării de interfețe prin PowerApps, acoperind de la ecrane și controale până la utilizarea variabilelor și a colecțiilor. Partea a doua se concentrează pe automatizarea logică folosind Power Automate (fostul Microsoft Flow), detaliind tipurile de triggeri și fluxurile condiționale. Ulterior, autorii introduc analiza datelor prin Power BI, punând accent pe curățarea datelor cu Power Query și modelarea acestora prin calcule DAX. În final, volumul demonstrează cum aceste componente pot fi integrate într-o soluție unică, coerentă. Această lucrare se poziționează ca o extensie practică în cadrul operei autorilor, care au publicat anterior ghiduri exhaustive precum Microsoft Power BI Complete Reference. Spre deosebire de acele titluri focalizate strict pe analiză, Pro Microsoft Power Platform extinde perspectiva către execuție și automatizare, fiind un ghid tehnic esențial pentru optimizarea proceselor interne.

Descriere scurtă

Become a self-sufficient citizen developer by learning the tools within the Microsoft Power Platform and how they can be used together to drive change and multiply your productivity. Learn about PowerApps for building applications, Power Automate for automating business processes across those applications, and Power BI for analyzing results and communicating business intelligence through compelling visuals. By understanding the purpose and capabilities of these tools, you will be able to enhance your organization’s visibility into key areas and make informed business decisions in a timely matter. 

This book is divided into four parts and begins in Part I by showing you how to build applications through PowerApps. You will learn about screens and controls, application sharing and administration, and how to make your applications accessible from mobile devices such as phones and tablets. Part II is about creating workflows using Power Automate that implement business logic across your applications. Part III brings in dashboards and data analysis, showing you how to connect to a data source, cleanse the data from that source, and drive decision making through interactive reports and storytelling. Part IV brings together all the pieces by showing the integrations that are possible when all three tools are combined into a single solution.


What You Will Learn
  • Understand the need for the citizen developer in today’s business environment
  • Organize and plan the building of line-of-business applications with PowerApps solutions 
  • Replace wasteful paper processes with automated applications built in PowerApps
  • Automate workflows across processes with Power Automate
