Modern work and secure connectivity with Azure
Azure Virtual Desktop + Azure VPN Gateway
Azure helps teams work securely from anywhere while keeping access tightly controlled. Azure Virtual Desktop delivers Windows desktops and apps to users on almost any device, and Azure VPN Gateway enables encrypted connections back to Azure and on-premises networks.
Azure Virtual Desktop is a desktop and application virtualization service that runs on Azure. It enables you to deliver full Windows desktops or individual apps to employees and contractors, while maintaining centralized control over configuration and management. AVD supports single-session personal desktops or pooled multi-session environments for cost-efficient scale.
Key benefits
- Provide secure access to Windows desktops and RemoteApp experiences from almost any device.
- Support multi-session Windows for higher user density and cost efficiency in pooled environments.
- Keep data and applications in Azure, reducing endpoint risk and simplifying governance.
- Scale capacity up or down to match time-of-day or demand patterns using autoscale.
- Centralize image, app, and policy management to improve consistency and reduce support effort.
Ideal for
- Hybrid and remote workforces that need secure access to corporate apps.
- Contractors or seasonal staff who need temporary desktop access.
- Call centers and task workers needing standardized, locked-down environments.
- Organizations modernizing or replacing legacy Remote Desktop Services deployments.
Azure VPN Gateway provides encrypted connectivity between Azure virtual networks and on-premises locations over the public internet. It can also create encrypted connections between Azure virtual networks, supporting secure hybrid and multi-site architectures.
Key benefits
- Encrypted site-to-site (IPsec/IKE) tunnels between on-premises networks and Azure.
- Point-to-site VPN for remote users to securely connect to Azure resources from home or while traveling.
- VNet-to-VNet connectivity for secure communication between Azure environments.
- Supports multiple connections per gateway and provides options to design for resiliency and throughput.
- A practical choice for hybrid connectivity and as a secure failover path alongside other connectivity options.
Typical use cases
- Connecting branch offices or datacenters to Azure for hybrid workloads.
- Enabling secure remote access to internal systems hosted in Azure.
- Linking multiple Azure VNets for hub-and-spoke or multi-region designs.
- Building a secure migration path from on-premises infrastructure to Azure.
Next steps
- If you’re planning a cloud migration, hybrid connectivity, or a secure remote work strategy, these Azure services can form a strong foundation. We can help assess your requirements, design the right architecture, and implement Azure securely with best-practice governance and cost controls.
Microsoft Azure — Cloud services built for modern business
Secure, scalable, and ready for growth
Microsoft Azure is a cloud platform that helps organizations modernize infrastructure, protect data, and deliver reliable digital experiences. Whether you’re migrating existing workloads or building new solutions, Azure provides the building blocks to run applications, store data, and connect users securely — with the flexibility to scale as your needs change.
Azure Storage is Microsoft’s cloud storage foundation for modern workloads. It supports object, file, queue, table, and disk storage — designed to be highly available, durable, secure, and massively scalable. It’s a great fit for everything from application data and backups to content delivery and analytics at scale.
Key benefits
- High durability and availability with redundancy options to protect data against failures and outages.
- Built-in security features, including encryption and fine-grained access control.
- Scales with your workload — from small projects to enterprise data volumes.
- Fully managed platform services reduce operational overhead for storage infrastructure.
- Accessible globally via HTTPS/REST APIs, SDKs, and tools like Azure Portal, CLI, and Storage Explorer.
Common scenarios
- Backup and disaster recovery storage for servers, apps, and critical data.
- Application and web content storage (images, documents, media).
- File shares to support lift-and-shift workloads and hybrid environments.
- Storage for virtual machine disks and performance tiers for different workloads.
- Queues and tables for decoupled, resilient app architectures.
Azure Virtual Machines provide on-demand compute in the cloud, giving you the flexibility of virtualization without the need to purchase and maintain physical servers. VMs are ideal when you need control over the operating system, configuration, and software — while still gaining the agility and scalability of Azure.
Key benefits
- Rapid provisioning of Windows or Linux servers in minutes.
- Scale up or down to match demand, and use automation to standardize deployments.
- Supports a wide range of workloads — from web apps and line-of-business systems to dev/test and legacy applications.
- Integrates with Azure networking, monitoring, backup, and security services for enterprise-grade operations.
- Helps extend your datacenter with secure connectivity into Azure virtual networks.
Typical use cases
- Hosting business applications that require full OS control.
- Development and test environments with repeatable configurations.
- Burst capacity for seasonal or project-based workloads.
- Running databases, application servers, and specialized workloads that are not yet cloud-native.
