Azure Virtual Desktop 1 Week POC

AKAVEIL Technologies delivers customized IT solutions with a focus on Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI), designed specifically for law firms and legal teams. As a trusted Microsoft Partner, we collaborate with your organization to explore how Azure Virtual Desktop can enhance remote work capabilities while optimizing operational costs.

Our Azure Virtual Desktop Proof of Concept (PoC) helps you evaluate the benefits of virtual desktops in a real-world setting. We identify inefficiencies in your current setup and demonstrate how AVD can streamline access to applications and data securely from anywhere—without sacrificing performance, flexibility, or scalability.

This PoC is designed to showcase how your organization can leverage Azure Virtual Desktop to modernize its infrastructure and enable secure remote access for employees to their applications and data.

Agenda

Phase 1: Discovery and Kick-off

• Conduct an initial meeting to understand your current environment.
• Discuss and plan the architecture for the AVD deployment tailored to your business needs.

Phase 2: Environment Assessment and Solution Design

• Identify key systems and dependencies relevant to virtual desktop integration.
• Propose a tailored, cost-effective AVD solution for your organization.
• Demonstrate a preliminary setup of the environment.
• Begin building a custom desktop image, including required applications such as Office Suite, based on your input.

Phase 3: PoC Deployment

• Deploy Azure Virtual Desktop environment using insights from the assessment phase.
• Provide a complete workflow and architecture diagram, outlining desktop and user profile delivery models.
• Our engineering team will configure your AVD setup in Azure, following Microsoft’s best practices.

This includes:

• Setting up an Entra ID Tenant
• Configuring the AVD and host pools
• Installing necessary applications and desktops for end users
