Baptist Health improves app login times with Azure Virtual Desktop

App login times at Baptist Health used to be up to 3 minutes. Loading profiles in a device had become a hassle. Manual software installations and configurations were time-consuming. With Azure Virtual Desktop, Baptist Health now hosts virtual machine or containerized workloads, connecting on-premises systems to Azure for cloud-based services, monitoring, and management.  #Azure #cloud #VDI #Azurevirtualdesktop

To prevent Azure from marking an instance as unhealthy and shutting it down, expose a lightweight /health endpoint that returns HTTP 200 OK as soon as the application is ready to serve traffic. Configure Azure’s health probe to call this endpoint at short intervals; any non-200 or timeout response will trigger auto-repair or replacement of the instance.

Top 3 reliability actions you need to take for your Azure deployments that sadly many customers are not!

Great info here as always! In the last few years I’ve seen so many deployments of zonal resources to networks with non-zonal gateways and it’s not always something people think to check. Typically the gateway was deployed years back on a standard (non-zonal) SKU and forgotten about, because it just works it’s not looked at again. Not much point deploying zonal resources if your network connectivity dies with the affected zone.

𝗡𝗲𝘄 𝗔𝘇𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗧𝘂𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗔𝗹𝗲𝗿𝘁! 𝗔𝘇𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗰𝗲 𝗚𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗽 retains deployment metadata within the resource group, enabling you to redeploy previously provisioned configurations with minimal effort. In this guide, I walk you through how to redeploy deleted resources using Azure Resource Group deployments, a powerful yet often overlooked capability that can save time, reduce errors, and reinforce governance. Whether you're managing infrastructure, supporting users, or building automation workflows, understanding deployment history is a game-changer.

#Citrix supports the ability to create Microsoft Intune-enabled machine catalogs. With this feature, Azure AD joined catalogs enrolled in Intune for persistent and non-persistent, single, and multi-session VMs can be created. More info ➡ http://spr.ly/6045fUxjX

🌟 Azure Public Preview: Microsoft.FileShares Microsoft has introduced a new preview feature, Microsoft.FileShares, making Azure file share deployment easier than ever. You can now create file shares directly at the resource group level, no storage account required! Key highlights: ✔️ Deploy file shares as top-level resources, right alongside VMs, disks, and VNets. ✔️ Dedicated performance per share with custom IOPS and throughput. ✔️ Cost visibility per resource, enabling precise chargeback and reporting. ✔️ Private Endpoints and Service Endpoints supported in preview. ✔️ NFS protocol only (SMB remains available via classic file shares). A great step forward in simplifying architecture and providing more flexibility for Azure Files. https://lnkd.in/e2DKng2P #Azure #MicrosoftAzure #AzureStorage #AzureFiles #CloudComputing #AzurePreview #CloudStorage #HybridCloud #AzureArchitecture #AzureCommunity
