    What will be the cost for fallback from Azure to on Prem for the same VM scenario that you have chosen in this video.?

    For fallback from Azure to on prem would that cost as well. ALSO bandwidth cost would down after initial replication after initial replication ?

    So how does one with an AAD joined machine access Azure files when NOT on a company LAN but on the road or at home? I thought SMB's generally block SMB over the internet.

    Organizations that utilize Azure File Share typically allow for TCP port 445 traffic for connection to the azure storage account (typically at a file.core.windows.net fqdn) However if an organization wants to lock down port 445 or if ISP is blocking the port, an Azure Point-to-Site VPN to tunnel SMB traffic over a different port can be utilized - in which case an Always OnVPN setup from the endpoint device to Azure can be handy. Intune can make that easy to deploy for end users.

    📌 Continuing with Microsoft's suggestions, it's more efficient to distribute users across multiple smaller VMs instead of a few large ones. This strategy improves performance and conserves resources. 💾 Premium SSD storage is a must for production workloads with SLA requirements. And if you're dealing with graphics-intensive programs, consider GPUs! hashtag#ResourceManagement hashtag#Performance

    📌 Based on Microsoft's recommendations for sizing virtual machines in Remote Desktop Services, it's suggested to have at least two physical CPU cores per VM in single-session scenarios, typically four vCPUs with hyper-threading. 🖥 For multi-session scenarios, more than two cores ensure stability and a better user experience. ✅ Remember, exceeding 32 cores in VMs can increase synchronization overhead. hashtag#Microsoft hashtag#VirtualMachines

    📌 Creating a golden image for your Azure Virtual Desktop deployment can simplify your virtual environment management. Here's a quick guide: 1. Start by creating an Azure VM - this will serve as the base for your golden image. 2. Optimize your VM - ensure it operates smoothly by applying necessary patches and updates. 3. Capture the state of your VM - this saves the current configuration and allows you to replicate it for other deployments. 4. Once your golden image is set up, you can use it to quickly deploy new, identical VMs. This process not only saves time but also ensures consistency across your virtual environment. For more detailed instructions, check out this informative article from Microsoft: learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-desktop/set-up-golden-image #Azure #VirtualDesktop #GoldenImage

    📌 Insights from the video 👀 : 1⃣ Pooled Desktops: Multiple users share a VM, perfect for those who don't need admin access. It uses a recommended image that includes Windows 10 Enterprise multisession, exclusive to Azure Virtual Desktop. 🌐👥 2⃣ Personal Desktops: Each user gets their own dedicated VM and typically has local admin rights. Ideal for installing/uninstalling apps without impacting others. 💻🔐 3⃣ Customization: Personal desktops allow users to customize their environment including user-installed applications and saving files within the desktop environment. 🖥🎨 4⃣ Dedicated Resources: Personal desktops can assign dedicated resources to specific users - a boon for certain manufacturing or development use cases. 🏭👩‍💻 Ep04 coming soon: Service updates for Azure Virtual Desktop desktops ! 🚀💯

    📌 7 insights about Azure Hub & Spoke virtual networking: 1. A hub-and-spoke network topology is an efficient model for managing common communication or security requirements. 2. It allows centralized services that can be shared by multiple workloads, like network virtual appliances (NVAs) and DNS servers, saving on costs and management effort. 3. Peering workload virtual networks from different subscriptions to a central hub can overcome azure subscription limits for large azure environments. 4. This model allows for a separation of concerns: You can deploy individual workloads between central IT teams and workload teams. 5. The hub-and-spoke topology gives your IT department an effective way to enforce security policies in a central location, reducing the potential for misconfiguration and exposure. 6. The role of each spoke can be to host different types of workloads, providing a modular approach for repeatable deployments of the same workloads. 7. The hub deployment is bound to a specific Azure subscription, which has restrictions and limits. When limits might be an issue, you can scale up the architecture by extending the model to a cluster of hubs and spokes.
