Microsoft: Windows Virtual Desktop available to everyone

Η Microsoft διέθεσε σήμερα 30 Σεπτεμβρίου το Windows Virtual Desktop και αρχίζει να λειτουργεί τη νέα υπηρεσία σε παγκόσμιο επίπεδο. Η εταιρεία προσφέρει επίσης μερικά πρόσθετα νέα for service based on Azure.

Microsoft officially announced Windows Virtual Desktop (WVD) in September of 2018 and released it for the first time in March on 2019.

According to Microsoft, thousands of its customers have tested WVD while the service was in preview. From today the service is ready for the first time and the WVD client is available from today, for the Windows, Android, Mac, iOS and HTML 5.

Windows Virtual Desktop

Windows Virtual Desktop is a new service that provides Windows 10 virtualization, along with multiple 10 connection capabilities as well as desktop support and Windows Server RDS applications.

In short, the new WVD service will allow virtualize Windows 7, 8, 10, Office 365 ProPlus, and other third-party applications by running them remotely on Azure virtual machines.

Microsoft will also enable WVD users to virtualize on Windows 7 - with free Extended Update Update support until January at 2023.

This means that the company's customers who have licensed (purchased) Windows Virtual Desktop will continue to receive it security for Windows 7 even after Microsoft officially ends support after January 14, 2020, at no additional cost.

"VDI (virtual desktop infrastructure) is one of the top ten services," said Brad Anderson, Corporate Vice President of Microsoft 365.

"The they want to move to loud and WVD is really the only way to run Windows 10 clients, with multiple users in the public cloud.”
