3. Windows Virtual Desktop
Windows Virtual Desktop is an Azure Cloud Service
that allows to publish:
 Desktop
 Applications (Microsoft or third party)
The applications are installed inside Azure virtual
machines (Windows Client and / or Windows Server)
The connection is established through the internet
channel

Continue running Win7 apps,
while modernizing your PC
footprint
C. Manage Win 7 End of
Support with WVD
A. Replace/Migrate on-prem
virtual desktop deployments
Migrate workloads to cloud for
flexibility and cost savings
Reduce management complexity
and enhance security
Modernize infrastructure
B. Sell New / Additional
Windows Virtualization
Provide modern, consistent, and
secure Windows 10 user
experience at low cost

9. Licensing
Client
Customers are eligible to access Windows 10 single
and multi session and Windows 7 with Windows
Virtual Desktop (WVD) if they have one of the
following licenses*:
• Microsoft 365 E3/E5
• Microsoft 365 A3/A5/Student Use Benefits
• Microsoft 365 F3
• Microsoft 365 Business Premium
• Windows 10 Enterprise E3/E5
• Windows 10 Education A3/A5
• Windows 10 VDA per user
Server
Customers are eligible to access Server workloads
with Windows Virtual Desktop (WVD) if they have
one of the following licenses:
• RDS CAL license with active Software
Assurance (SA)
.
*Customers can access Windows Virtual Desktop from their non-Windows Pro endpoints if they
have a Microsoft 365 E3/E5/F3, Microsoft 365 A3/A5 or Windows 10 VDA per user license.

11. Windows 10 Multisession
Note: WVD is the only way to run Windows 10 Multi-Session
Note: Figures are illustrative and based on pre-configured assumptions; actual savings vary by user requirements and infrastructure configuration
*The $40 PUPM for single session cost is modeled for a common configuration: Windows 10 single-session in WVD starts at ~$15 per user per month for 1 vCPU, 2 GiB RAM configuration
1 user to 1 smaller VM with low utilization
Many users per 1 larger VM
with high utilization and lower operational costs
Utilization
1 user per D2s v3
(2 vCPUs, 8 GiB RAM)
32 users per D8s v3
(8 vCPUs, 32 Gib RAM)

$ per user per month
Customer Scenario – From Windows 10 single session on-prem to Windows 10 Multi-Session in WVD
• Trade many small dedicated VMs for few large shared VMs (with higher utilization and lower operational costs)

12. Windows Server License not needed
*Azure VM cost at Windows Server rate is used as the proxy for
average on-prem VM cost that requires a Windows Server license;
on-prem cost is likely underestimated

Customer Scenario – From Windows Server on-prem to Windows Server in WVD
• WVD doesn’t require Windows Server license for session host VMs (i.e. session host VMs charged at Linux compute rate)
Note: Non-session host VMs still require Windows Server license (only if Azure Hybrid Benefits are not available)
Note: With Azure NetApp Files or Azure Files, customers also save the cost of Windows Server license and its hosting VM that would otherwise be required by File Server
Note: Figures are illustrative and based on pre-configured assumptions; actual savings vary by user requirements and infrastructure configuration

Economic Benefit
Customer Scenario – From Windows Server on-prem to Windows 10 Multi-Session in WVD
• Save on RDS CAL when migrating from Windows Server on-prem to Windows 10 Multi-Session* in WVD
*Customers can leverage the license (e.g. M365 E3/E5, Win 10 E3/E5) they already own. See Appendix for a complete list of WVD licensing requirements
Note: Figures are illustrative and based on pre-configured assumptions; actual savings vary by user requirements and current licensing position
Note: Customers need to fully refactor desktops and apps when migrating from Windows Server deployment to Windows 10 multi-session in WVD
**This saving applies when customers migrate from Windows Server
deployment to Windows 10 multi-session in WVD; Windows Server in
WVD still requires RDS CAL

Customer Scenario – From Win7 on-prem to Win7 in WVD
• With WVD, 3-year Extended Security Update is included for Win 7 VMs running on Azure*
*Benefit not applicable to Win 7 running on local devices
Note: Figures are illustrative and based on pre-configured assumptions; actual savings vary by user requirements and current licensing position

15. Windows Virtual Desktop
 Virtualization layer managed by Microsoft (Azure)
 You must create and manage the virtual machines
that are assigned to the end users.
 Control Plane created and managed by Microsoft
High Level Architecture
Control plane

16. Cost Advantages
• Windows Server are charged at Linux Compute Rate
• Windows 7 Extended Support (ESU) is included
• Windows 10 Multi Session can avoid “double license
cost” (VDA + RDS) in a multi session environment
• Optimization script can stop and start virtual
machines optimizing costs
• The Control Plane is not charged

User profile
Host Pool
File Share
Internet
The User profile is attached to the
assigned Virtual Machine at logon
time
The pooled virtual machine are
expendable
The profile can be stored on:
 Azure File
 Azure NetApp
 Virtual Machine file server

19. MSIX App Attach
Currently in Public Preview
Classic Monolithic Approach

20. MSIX App Attach
With FSLogix we’ve separated the user profile layer
from the virtual machine.
To the user it feels like you’re saving and accessing
files from a local disk.
But, what about the apps?
 In a shared or pooled virtual machine,
this is a challenge
 Each user might need a different set of apps
 They can be assigned to a different VM with each
logon

22. Teams Audio/Video Optimization
 Audio/Video redirection

26. Azure Lighthouse helps service providers efficiently build and deliver managed services:
 Management at scale: Customer engagement and life-cycle operations to manage customer
resources are easier and more scalable..
 Greater visibility and control for customers: Customers have precise control over the scopes
they delegate for management and the permissions that are allowed.
 Comprehensive and unified platform tooling: Azure Lighthouse works with existing tools and
APIs, licensing models, Azure managed applications, and partner programs such as the Cloud
Solution Provider program (CSP).
There are no additional costs associated with using Azure Lighthouse to manage Azure
resources. Any Azure customer or partner can use Azure Lighthouse.
