Windows Virtual Desktop

In this lab, attendees will deploy the Windows Virtual Desktop (WVD) solution . Exclusively available as an Azure cloud service, Windows Virtual Desktop allows you to choose a flexible end user virtualized application or desktop delivery model that best aligns with your enterprise Azure cloud strategy. WVD simplifies the IT model to virtualize and deploy modern and legacy desktop app experiences with unified management—without needing to host, install, configure and manage components such as diagnostics, networking, connection brokering, and gateway. WVD brings together Microsoft Office 365 and Azure to provide users with the only multi-session Windows 10 experience with exceptional scale and reduced IT costs while empowering today’s modern digital workspace.
