What’s Next For Power Platform
Microsoft’s Ignite 2021 conference this week included multiple announcements related to the Power Platform, from security improvements to enhancements in reporting and governance. The announcements reveal the tech giant’s latest investments in its platform that enables workers without coding and data science experience to perform automation, data analysis, development of solutions and creation of chatbots. In a keynote address Wednesday, Microsoft Executive Vice President Scott Guthrie, who leads the Microsoft cloud and AI group, said that customers using the “low-code, no-code” tools see “tremendous success in terms of rapidly deploying solutions into their environment that take a fraction of the time that it maybe would have a couple years ago, when everything had to be built by hand.”
What follows are Microsoft’s top five Power Platform announcements at Ignite 2021.
