Azure Virtual Desktop extends the possibilities of End-User-Computing in the Microsoft Azure cloud. There are many ways to manage desktops and handle the application life cycle.

Combined with Intune, we unleash the true power: Creating a golden Master with Intune to deploy win32 and package manager apps. Additionally, Intune policies are used to configure Azure Virtual Desktop session hosts. But using Intune with AVD contains some pitfalls - let us start doing that and avoid some of the classic mistakes.

Using Intune, PowerShell, and some tools allows us to build AVD environments integrated into AD, AAD&AD, or AAD-only. Even AAD-only is becoming more and more popular. An easier integration, fewer dependencies, and, at the same time, new challenges: How to store FSLogix profiles with cloud-only users, accessing on-premises resources, etc.

Finally, session attendees can deploy and configure AVD with Intune and make the right decision about where to deploy AVD and how to work in an AAD-only environment like a charm.
