Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD) is a cloud-based service from Microsoft that allows you to deliver and manage Windows desktops and applications over the internet. The virtual desktops and apps are hosted in the Microsoft Azure cloud and can be accessed from any device, anywhere.
Flexible, location-independent work, increased productivity, optimal performance, and robust security. With scalability, easy management, seamless Microsoft 365 integration, and the ability to use existing licenses, AVD is an ideal solution for businesses of all sizes.
Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD) differs from a traditional virtual machine in that it provides a fully managed desktop and app virtualization solution in the cloud. While traditional VMs require users to manage the entire infrastructure themselves, Azure manages the underlying infrastructure for AVD, including patching and updates. Additionally, AVD offers built-in features for remote desktop sessions and makes deploying and scaling virtual desktops straightforward.
Azure Virtual Desktop employs multiple security measures to ensure data protection and confidentiality. Key aspects include integration with Azure Active Directory, precise access controls, encryption of data both at rest and in transit, continuous monitoring, and regular updates to maintain the highest security standards.
Yes, Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD) can be used on multiple devices and platforms. AVD enables access to virtual desktops and applications from any device, including desktop PCs, laptops, tablets, and smartphones. The only requirements are an internet connection and a supported web browser or the AVD client app.
The primary costs of AVD are associated with the underlying Azure resources, such as virtual machines, storage, and networking. Pricing varies based on the chosen configuration. Additionally, Windows Client Access Licenses (CALs) or Microsoft 365 licenses that include AVD rights are required.
