Challenge
Lack of flexibility with a single Golden Image for all users, hindering individually configured application environments.
Inefficiencies in allocating desktops for new users, resulting in delays and productivity setbacks. Resource wastage and time consumption due to the destruction and recreation of virtual machines upon user logoff.
Expensive and time-consuming application and operating system updates. Complex and risky testing and updating workflows without a dedicated test environment. Lack of documentation, best practices, and automation, leading to increased complexity and manual effort.
Multiple Active Directory domains without proper documentation.
Solution (Azure VDI Workflow)
- Introduction of Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD), a scalable and unified desktop and app virtualization service on the cloud.
- Utilization of Azure Compute Gallery (ACG) for version-controlled Golden Images and streamlined resource management.
- Integration of Microsoft Intune for cloud-based endpoint management, simplifying app and device management.
- Automation of tasks such as Golden Image building, deployment, scaling, and monitoring.
- Implementation of Sandbox, Beta, and Production environments for rigorous testing and controlled updates.
- Centralized file sharing hosted in Azure Storage, reducing complexity and network congestion.
- Adherence to industry best practices, documentation, and automation of processes.
- Monitoring, log analysis, and AI-assisted business analysis for enhanced visibility and proactive vulnerability management.
- Automatic scaling to meet user demands and optimize costs.
