F&O Dataverse Limitation?
Hello Azure Community,
Quick question:
If a customer has significant data volumes and feel that they may consume large amounts of data with F&O Dataverse, will they need to purchase additional Dataverse database to use Synapse?
I reviewed the following MS Learn Docs and do not find information on limitations:
- Azure Synapse Link - Power Apps | Microsoft Learn
- Create an Azure Synapse Link for Dataverse with your Azure Synapse Workspace - Power Apps | Microsoft Learn
- Frequently asked questions about exporting Microsoft Dataverse table data to Azure Synapse Analytics and Azure Data Lake - Power Apps | Microsoft Learn
Thank you in advance for your assistance.

To my understanding, the answer is NO, customers do not need to purchase additional Dataverse database capacity but just to use Azure Synapse Link with Finance & Operations (F&O). Synapse Link streams data directly from Dataverse into Azure Synapse Analytics or Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2, and the storage/compute costs are incurred in Azure but not in Dataverse. However, Dataverse capacity limits still apply for transactional storage, so if your F&O integration generates unusually large volumes of data, you may need to monitor and possibly expand Dataverse capacity for the operational side.
