Planning and Preparing

This section contains information and instructions to address before you start to use the provisioning tools to deploy Microsoft Dynamics NAV on Windows Azure or other cloud services and virtual machines.

Determine the Network Topology and Configuration

You can deploy Microsoft Dynamics NAV in different network topologies. You can deploy to a single virtual machine, where all Microsoft Dynamics NAV components are installed. Or, you can deploy on two virtual machines, where Microsoft Dynamics NAV Web Server components and Microsoft Dynamics NAV Server are on one machine and SQL Server and the Microsoft Dynamics NAV database components are on the other.

For more information, see Network Topologies for Microsoft Dynamics NAV on Azure.

Prepare the provisioning environment

To prepare for deployment, you must prepare the Windows Azure subscription and the computer that you will use to provision Microsoft Dynamics NAV on Windows Azure.
