Join our friends from video-podcast Desktops in the Cloud. Normally on YouTube, however, now live and exclusive at the WVD TechFest 2021 event! This session will include most of the lessons learned from all episodes + Christiaan & Dean’s own tech experiences and visions around Windows Virtual Desktop. One demo-rich session not to miss, that's for sure!

Windows Virtual Desktop extent the possibilities of End-User-Computing in the Mircosoft Azure cloud. There are many ways to manage the desktops and handle the application life-cycle. One straightforward way of doing that is by using free community solutions and modern software distribution technologies. Let's start managing WVD like a pro with WVDAdmin, a bunch of automatisms and the Windows Package Manager

Automation is a key part of any WVD deployment. A great way of automating your WVD deployments is using Azure Resource Manager JSON templates. But how do you overcome the complexity of ARM templates and still leverage its power? Project ‘Bicep’ provides the answer! In this demo heavy session, you’ll learn how to empower your WVD Deployments using project ‘Bicep’! We’ll take a look at deploying a WVD environment from scratch and also touch upon Azure Image Builder, Shared Image Gallery and leveraging GPU’s along the way!

A quiz for our attendees, where you can win a super nice swag bag provided by our partners!

"Last year I was challenged to dive into GitHub Actions. And those of you that know me, already figured out that challenge was accepted quickly to extend my Azure Automation adventures to level up my GitHub n00b status. In this session I will show you how GitHub Actions helped me to create workflows that automatically build, test, publish, release, and deploy Infrastructure as Code and create my first automated Windows Virtual Desktop (WVD) and Azure Image Builder (AIB) CI/CD workflow. Starring GitHub Actions, cool demos and guest appearances of Azure Image Builder and the Shared Image Gallery!"
