Microsoft released today September 30 the Virtual Desktop και αρχίζει να λειτουργεί τη νέα υπηρεσία σε παγκόσμιο επίπεδο. Η εταιρεία προσφέρει επίσης μερικά πρόσθετα νέα χαρακτηριστικά για το virtualization 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 tried WVD in the preview of the service. The service is ready for the first time today and the WVD client application is available today for Windows, Android, Mac, iOS and HTML 5 platforms.

Windows Virtual Desktop

Windows Virtual Desktop is a new service that provides Windows 10 virtualization, along with Windows 10 multi-connection capabilities and support for desktop and of Windows Server RDS.

In short, the new WVD service will allow users to virtualize Windows 7, 8, 10, Office 365 ProPlus applications 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 company customers who have licensed (purchased) Windows Virtual Desktop will continue to receive security updates for Windows 7 even after Microsoft's official support ceases after January 14, without any additional cost.

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

“Companies want to move to loud and WVD is really the only way to run Windows 10 , with many users in the public cloud.”
