Deploy Dynamics AX on Microsoft Azure
Sysfore Technologies has successfully deployed Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 R2 on Microsoft Azure for an agriculture operation giant – Harrisons Malayalam Limited(HML). This deployment resulted in an extremely scalable, accessible and cost-effective solution.
HML runs its Microsoft Dynamics AX ERP in-house, in a traditional datacenter setup. Due to challenges in managing technology infrastructure, HML wished to evaluate deployment of its Microsoft Dynamics AX application workload to the cloud.

Codename Oslo officially Delve – a quick sneak peek
Satya Nadella demonstrated a new service for Office 365 called “Delve” (formerly Codename Oslo) at Microsoft WPC 2014 this year.
Delve is the “Next-generation search and discovery” solution which aims at removing the information silos that exist across applications, providing better support information discovery and enabling teams to work together as a network. It cuts through the noise by showing you what you need to know today and even what’s likely to be important in the near future.The information is delivered in a way that is easy to consume and quick to scan.
Delve is personalized and tailored to you. It highlights your key information of interest based on what you are working on and the actions of people in your network. What one sees is different from what his team members see. This is possible by using the power of “Office Graph”.
