So I ordered a copy of "Inside Microsoft Dynamics AX 2009" put out by Microsoft Press and it came today. I was browsing through the Introduction section which mentions a companion eBook that is available for download. The eBook addresses upgrade considerations when moving to AX 2009 and it contains four chapters:
- Chapter 1: Introduction to Upgrade
- Chapter 2: Code Upgrade
- Chapter 3: Data Upgrade
- Chapter 4: Upgrade Additional Topics
I did a quick review of the content, and unlike the upgrade reference materials that are available on Customer Source and Partner Source (which are procedural in nature), the eBook address more of the theory and the "why" involved with an upgrade. If you're not extremely technical, it's a really good reference that will help you get your arms around the concepts involved in the upgrade.
You can download the eBook by going to http://www.microsoft.com/learning/en/us/books/13345.aspx, and then scroll to the bottom of the page to find the link under the "Bonus Content" section. You'll need to download the .exe file which will run the installer to install the eBook.
As for the book itself, you an get it for much less than the $69.99 list price. I got it for around $45 through Amazon and it came (via U.S. mail) within the week I ordered.
