Microsoft Releases a New Power Platform Product with Power Pages in Preview
Summary
At the annual Build conference, the company announced the preview of Microsoft Power Pages as a stand-alone Software as a Service (SaaS) platform product for anyone, regardless of technical background, to create data-powered, modern, and secure websites. As a standalone platform product, it offers low-code capabilities such as a design studio to allow users to style, configure, and publish business websites. In addition, users can design their site pages with text, video, images, business data forms, lists, and so on, or use one of the templates Microsoft offers to get started. Lastly, Power Pages allows users to implement role-based access controls and web app firewalls via Azure and collect and share business info with site visitors via Microsoft’s Dataverse platform. People often think of low-code web development as useful for basic projects like a site to showcase a company profile or use as an e-commerce platform for other content.
