Cloud Architecture: Deploying and Securing a Viva Connections Card to Display Stock Prices
Introduction
Viva Connections is a cloud-based solution by Microsoft that enables organizations to quickly and easily create, deploy, and secure virtual cards to keep their employees informed of important information. In this article, we will explore how to use Viva Connections to deploy and secure a card to display stock prices.
Deployment
Deploying your card to your organization’s users is a simple process. First, you will need to create a Viva Connections card that is populated with the data of your desired stock prices. To do this, you will need to create a custom data source for your card, which will be connected to an external API that is providing the stock prices. Once the data source is connected, you can create a card and populate it with the data from the API.
Once your card is created, you will need to deploy it to your organization’s users. To do this, you will need to create a Viva Connections deployment package, which will contain your card and the associated data sources. This package can then be deployed to the users that should have access to the card.
Security
Once your card is deployed, it is important to ensure that it is secure and that only the desired users can view the data. To protect your card, you will need to configure user authentication and authorization.
User authentication allows you to control who has access to the card and its data. This can be done by setting up multi-factor authentication and requiring users to authenticate themselves before they can view the card.
User authorization allows you to control what users can do with the card and its data. This can be done by creating roles and assigning them to each user. For example, you can create a role that allows users to view the card, but not edit or delete it.
Conclusion
Cloud architecture allows organizations to quickly and easily deploy and secure applications and services. By leveraging Viva Connections, organizations can deploy and secure a card that displays stock prices. This can be done by creating a custom data source, deploying the card to users, and configuring user authentication and authorization. By following these steps, organizations can ensure that their stock prices are kept secure and only accessible by the desired users.
