Thanks for WVD instances rollout to India🙏. Now I tried to check WVD experience estimator from India but its keeps on loading. I checked multiple times from yesterday its the same. I tested the same from one of US server. It’s working from there. Any maintenance going on?

janakiramn , Ian Pickering : Apologize for the delayed update. This issue has been resolved and you should be able to query from all regions.

    Christian_Montoya Hi - just need to confirm if we have a region IN China for WVD? I have a customer with locations in China that require this service to be delivered from within China, not a region outside of China. Thanks!

      Dale_Noleroth : No, we do not have service instances in the Azure geography of China. To clarify, even with service instances in China, service metadata is still stored in the U.S. today.

       

      At the moment, it looks like the nearest geography to China that has service instances is Asia Pacific, which contains the East Asia and Southeast Asia regions.

        Does Asia Pacific cover Southeast Asia or East Asia?

         

        We have users in these regions and the Windows Virtual Desktop Experience Estimator is telling them that the India regions have the least latency.


        I have also tested from Hong Kong, and it points me to Australia as the region with the least latency.

         

        This seems to indicate there are no gateways in Southeast Asia or East Asia.


        So was the "Asia Pacific" announcement incorrect?

         

        Thanks
