Scenario 2: Moving from a single production environment
This scenario aims at users or organizations that have a single Dataverse environment with a database that they use to create, test, and deploy their apps. Having a single environment poses challenges in terms of change management and control.
To move to healthy application lifecycle management (ALM), you must:
Separate your development and production environments, at a minimum. The ideal solution is to have three environments, one each for development, testing, and production/deployment. More information: ALM environment strategy
Use solutions to ship changes across environments: More information: Use a solution to customize
Automate the application lifecycle process using DevOps. More information: Microsoft Power Platform Build Tools for Azure DevOps
