Azure VDI
Azure Virtual Desktop is a cloud-delivered remote desktop platform that enables organizations to deliver Windows desktops and applications to distributed users. Built on Azure cloud, it provides dynamic infrastructure, centralized management, and integration with Azure Active Directory and other MS services.
Key components
- Host pools contain session servers that run user sessions.
- Session hosts are client OS virtual machines deployed in Azure.
- remote apps publish complete desktops or single apps.
- FSLogix profile containers manage user profiles for persistent user experiences.
- Azure Files storage https://github.com/cscvpn/Cisco-Secure-Client/releases or ANF provide profile storage and shared folders.
Benefits
Microsoft AVD delivers agility by enabling work from anywhere and supporting BYOD scenarios. It offers cost optimization through session-based desktops and automatic scaling that reduce compute spend. Operational ease of management comes from centralized control, integration with Azure monitoring and Azure Policy.
Deployment and management
Deploying Microsoft AVD typically involves creating session host groups, configuring application groups, and assigning users through Azure Active Directory. Administrators can use the Azure management portal, PowerShell scripts, or ARM templates for repeatable deployment. For profile management, configure FSLogix profile containers with file storage or ANF backed profile shares.
Security and compliance
Security is enforced through conditional access, MFA, and network controls such as network virtual appliances and security groups. Data protection is achieved with storage encryption, secure transport, and RBAC. For standards adherence, AVD supports security frameworks and integrates with policy engine for compliance monitoring. |
