Common Data Model (CDM) – Intro

The Common Data Model (CDM) is an open-source definition of standard entities and a metadata system that enable consistency of data across apps and business processes.

Today, the Common Data Model is used within Common Data Service (CDS), which supports Dynamics 365, PowerApps, and the data-preparation capabilities in Power BI dataflows to create schematized files in Azure Data Lake.

With CDS we define an entity which can be leveraged by Dynamics 365, PowerApps and Power BI.

Dynamics 365 Healthcare Accelerator is an example of CDM which built on FHIR-based data model.

Explore the Common Data Model (CDM) using the Visual Entity Navigator

  • Click on ‘Load from Github’ button, which load all available Open Source CDMs.
  • Once definitions loaded, click on an entity to explore its schema
