What is Azure Virtual Desktop?
Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD) is Microsoft’s desktop as a service solution. It enables employees to securely access their desktops and applications from any device, making it ideal for remote and hybrid working environments.
If your organisation currently works with Google Cloud, Amazon Workspaces, Linux desktops, or you are unsure about the compatibility of your team’s operating system, get in touch, and we would be happy to advise.
Is Azure Virtual Desktop IaaS or PaaS?
Azure Virtual Desktop can operate as either Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) or Platform as a Service (PaaS), depending on how it’s deployed and managed.
In practice, most organisations consume it as a managed Desktop as a Service (DaaS) – combining the flexibility of IaaS with the simplified management and scalability benefits of PaaS.
Virtual desktop solutions
Syntax IT Support offers the complete package of hosting, managing and securing your virtual desktop, from remote app access to hybrid cloud solutions and more.
When you make the switch to Azure Virtual Desktop, you can rest assured that there are no additional license costs, as the system can be used with your existing eligible Microsoft 365 or Windows per-user license. You can cut infrastructure costs by right-sizing virtual machines and shutting them down when not in use, and Windows 10/11 multi-session can help to increase the utilisation of your VMs.
Virtual desktop solutions can help you avoid upfront costs and align your operational expenses with your business usage. What’s more, you can reduce management overhead by moving your virtual desktop infrastructure over to the cloud with a managed service.
Deploy and scale your virtual desktop quality to meet your needs. The Azure portal is a comprehensive management hub which allows you to add users, deploy desktop apps, configure network settings, enable security features and more. Automated scaling means you only invest in the space you need, so you can focus on your apps and policies and let us do the rest.
