Finance and Operations standard cloud offer

Each Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations standard cloud offer includes three environments:

  • Tier-1 environment: Develop and test—One develop/test instance is provided for the duration of the subscription. This instance is a non-production, single-box instance that the customer can use as an automated build environment, or to customize Finance and Operations and do unit testing for the changes. Additional develop/test instances can be purchased separately as an optional add-on.

  • Tier-2 environment: Standard Acceptance Testing—One Standard Acceptance Testing instance is provided for the duration of the subscription. This instance is a non-production multi-box instance that customers can use for UAT, integration testing, and training. Additional sandbox/staging instances can be purchased separately as an optional add-on.

  • Production environment: One production instance is provided per tenant. The production multi-box instance includes disaster recovery and high availability. It will be provisioned when the implementation approaches the Operate phase, once the required activities in the Microsoft Dynamics LCS methodology and a successful go-live assessment are completed. 

In summary, for cloud deployment options, the following table illustrates different environment tiers, and their typical use, deployment, and cost structure:

Tier Topology Used for Deployment  Cost
Tier-1 One-box environment Development, Build, or Test Customer or partner or Microsoft subscription One Build, one Dev environment in MS subscription.

Tier-3 – Tier-5 Multi-box UAT, Performance testing Microsoft subscription Additional cost.

In summary, Microsoft provides one development, one build, one Tier-2 environment, and a production environment that might be good enough for simple projects. For a medium or a complex project, you will need to purchase additional add-on environments. Microsoft is working on features to minimize the need and cost of additional add-on development and build environments.
