Solution Deployment

The Runtime (Tutorial)

teaches you to:
  • Production checklist
  • Security hardening
  • Backup configuration
  • Go-live steps

Prerequisites:

  • Solution developed

Deploy your solution to production

Learn to transition from development to production. The Runtime tutorials cover:

  • Production deployment checklist
  • Security hardening and user management
  • Performance optimization
  • Database migration (SQLite to SQL Server)
  • Backup and recovery strategies
  • Monitoring and maintenance
  • Go-live validation

Key Skills:

  • Production configuration
  • Security implementation
  • License activation
  • Performance tuning
  • Operational monitoring

    walks you through executing and managing your configured solution. Learn to start solutions with different execution profiles, monitor runtime status, use diagnostic tools, and apply changes without stopping execution. These hands-on exercises teach you how to operate solutions reliably in development, validation, and production environments.

    Prerequisites:

    • Solution created in Solution Center
    • Basic configuration completed in Designer
    • Runtime license available
