SoftServe is a digital authority, operating at the cutting edge of technology. With expertise across healthcare, retail, media, financial services, and manufacturing and software, we implement end-to-end solutions, delivering the innovation, quality, and speed that our clients’ users expect.
Migration to AVD: SoftServe's 8-week implementation is designed to seamlessly transition your on-premises virtual desktop environment to Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD), ensuring operational continuity, cost efficiency, and enhanced security. Our approach includes comprehensive support, from initial assessment to post-migration assistance, empowering your IT team with the knowledge and tools to effectively manage AVD.
At the end of the migration, you will have
A fully deployed Azure Virtual Desktop environment with a host pool and session hosts configured.
Applications and user profiles migrated to AVD, ensuring performance, security, and seamless access.
Optimized AVD configuration for cost-effectiveness, autoscaling, and high availability.
A robust security posture with integrated Entra ID authentication, MFA, and compliance-aligned policies.
Comprehensive documentation detailing the new AVD setup, security configurations, and operational processes.
Post-migration support to ensure a smooth transition and to address any immediate operational issues.
Week 1-2
Assessment of the existing on-prem VDI, RDS, or Citrix environment.
