    How does the WVD solution reduce costs?

    WVD reduces customer costs by reducing infrastructure, licensing, and labor costs. Multisession Windows 10 allows significant savings in computer resources, and WVD service now replaces complex management requirements of RDS/VDI solutions. WVD is free to use with
    many existing licenses, and you no longer have to pay for RDS CAL licenses. Finally, labor savings are realized by the shift from IaaS to PaaS, removing the need to manage core services like broker/gateway/web access, etc., reducing management overhead.

    Deliver the best Microsoft 365 Apps for enterprise experience in a multi-session environment to your users. New Container technology enables fast load times and provides a performance experience for Outlook, OneDrive, Cortana, Search, and Skype. Create persistent and non-persistent environments, virtualize entire desktop or select applications only.

    Manage users and security via a unified administrative interface in the Azure Portal. Use familiar tools like Rest API & PowerShell to customize setup, deployment, and UI. Dynamically scale virtual machines using depth-first or breadth-first load balancing. Benefit from the integrated security and management of Microsoft 365 and rich partner solutions.
