Excellent. I found this blog useful for understanding the way of publishing your website on azure cloud service. But My question is, what will be advantage of this, if i have CRM onpremise version available?

Yes, you can use Power View against a Dynamic Spreadsheet. When you export a CRM list view to Excel, select the Dynamic Spreadsheet option, it will populate the Excel spreadsheet with dynamic CRM data that is contained under the Excel named range of “Query_from_Microsoft_CRM”. Please make sure that you have this named range highlighted when you create your Power View controls.

Thus, after you save your spreadsheet and close it out. You can reopen it and go to the Data tab and click the “Refresh from CRM” button to get an updated listing of your CRM data.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for this nice article. One question: Is it possible to make a connection to CRM through Excel to sync these data directly? I mean that, in softwares such as QlickView one could establish a connection to the DB of the CRM and build whatever chart and tables he wants. Then based on them do the filtering and analysis. Hence, there is no need to export and import every time.
