What happens when a platform known for low-code simplicity powers mission-critical systems for governments and global banks? In this episode, solution architect Eric Regnier shares firsthand insights from mega-scale Power Platform implementations across continents. From passport systems to banking infrastructure, Eric reveals how the platform is quietly redefining enterprise-grade technology—and why many architects are still missing the memo. 

🔑 KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Power Platform is powering global-scale systems — including national passport services and major banking operations, proving its enterprise-grade capabilities.
- Enterprise architects often misjudge low-code tools — due to Microsoft’s positioning, many overlook the platform’s robustness and scalability.
- Strategic platform decisions favor Microsoft ecosystems — organizations already invested in Azure and Microsoft 365 benefit from tighter integration and cost efficiency.
- Salesforce is a frequent competitor — but Power Platform often wins due to flexibility, speed, and alignment with existing infrastructure.
- Generative AI is on the horizon — while not yet widely adopted in production, its potential to reshape solution development is significant.
