Difficulty: EasyAzure Virtual Machines and Azure Virtual Desktop

A company wants to provide its call center staff with remote access to Windows 11 desktop environments. To reduce subscription and compute costs, the company needs a service that allows multiple users to log in and run concurrent, isolated desktop sessions on a single virtual machine host. Which Azure service should the company deploy?

  1. Azure Virtual DesktopAnswer
  2. B
    Azure Virtual Machines
  3. C
    Azure App Service
  4. D
    Azure Container Instances

Answer

Azure Virtual Desktop
Azure Virtual Desktop is specifically designed for desktop virtualization and includes exclusive support for Windows 10 and Windows 11 Multi-session. This allows multiple users to connect to the same virtual machine host simultaneously, reducing overall compute and licensing costs while keeping user profiles isolated.

Step-by-Step Solution

1
Analyze the requirement for remote desktop access
The solution must provide Windows 11 desktop environments for remote call center staff.
This establishes that the solution requires desktop virtualization rather than web hosting or container hosting.
2
Evaluate the cost-reduction requirement of running multiple concurrent sessions on a single host
Azure Virtual Desktop supports multi-session capability on a single Windows 11 VM, whereas standard Azure Virtual Machines only support single-session connections for client operating systems.
This differentiates Azure Virtual Desktop from standalone Azure Virtual Machines.
