What is the use of Azure Virtual Desktop?
Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD) is a cloud-based desktop and app virtualisation service provided by Microsoft Azure. It enables organisations to create and manage virtualised desktop environments in the cloud, allowing users to access their desktops, applications, and data from any device, anywhere, at any time.

Is Azure Virtual Desktop IaaS or PaaS?
Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD) is an example of Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) provided by Microsoft Azure. With AVD, Microsoft manages the infrastructure, including servers, storage, and networking components, while users are responsible for managing the virtual machines, operating systems, applications, and data within their virtual desktop environment. Therefore, Azure Virtual Desktop falls under the IaaS category, as it provides the foundational infrastructure required to deploy and manage virtual desktops in the cloud.
What is the difference between Azure VM and a virtual desktop?
Azure Virtual Machines (VMs) and virtual desktops are both cloud-based computing solutions offered by Microsoft Azure, but they serve different purposes and cater to distinct user needs.
