   Dataverse lets you securely store and manage data that\'s used by business applications. Data within Dataverse is stored within a set of tables. A table is a set of rows (formerly referred to as records) and columns (formerly referred to as fields/attributes). Each column in the table is designed to store a certain type of data, for example, name, age, salary, and so on. Dataverse includes a base set of standard tables that cover typical scenarios, but you can also create custom tables specific to your organization and populate them with data by using Power Query. App makers can then use Power Apps to build rich applications that use this data.\\\\n\\\\n\\\\nStandard and custom tables within Dataverse provide a secure and cloud-based storage option for your data. Tables let you create a business-focused definition of your organization\'s data for use within apps. If you\'re not sure whether tables are your best option, consider these benefits:\\\\n\\\\nEasy to manage – Both the metadata and data are stored in the cloud. You don\'t need to worry about the details of how they\'re stored.\\\\n\\\\nEasy to secure – Data is securely stored so that users can see it only if you grant them access. Role-based security allows you to control access to tables for different users within your organization.\\\\n\\\\nAccess your Dynamics 365 Data – Data from your Dynamics 365 applications is also stored within Dataverse, allowing you to quickly build apps that use your Dynamics 365 data and extend your apps with Power Apps.\\\\n\\\\nRich metadata – Data types and relationships are used directly within Power Apps.\\\\n\\\\nLogic and validation – Define calculated columns, business rules, workflows, and business process flows to ensure data quality and drive business processes.\\\\n\\\\nProductivity tools – Tables are available within the add-ins for Microsoft Excel to increase productivity and ensure data accessibility.\\\\n \\\\n\\\\n \\\\n \\\\n\\\\n \\\\n
