by Cláudio Rodrigues

'Desktop-as-a-Service' or 'DaaS' for short, is a hosted computing offering where the provider hosts and delivers virtual desktops and applications over the internet to the end users. With the rise of Cloud services, several companies jumped on the 'DaaS' bandwagon and today a myriad of offerings from different vendors are available.For companies considering 'DaaS', that poses a problem. How do I start? Which vendor should I evaluate? How these compare to each other?This book covers everything you need to know to deploy a Microsoft Azure hosted solution, not only using Microsoft's own Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD) platform but also Nutanix Xi Frame, Citrix Cloud, VMware Horizon Cloud and even a hybrid solution (delivering on-premises and cloud hosted desktops) from Accops.From creating your account on Azure, connecting your on-premises environment to Azure, all the way to deploying all these solutions, every single item is there, explained in very detailed step-by-step guides by Cláudio Rodrigues (former Microsoft MVP/Citrix CTP/VMware vExpert/Parallels VIPP), a well-known figure in the End User Computing (EUC) arena.And keep in mind the book will take you beyond 'DaaS', discussing important topics often forgotten like endpoint management, printing and monitoring.If you know nothing about 'DaaS' or are very familiar with one vendor, it does not matter. We have you covered and this book will definitely help you on your 'DaaS' journey or on expanding your knowledge about all the other vendors.
