Hi Kevhal,

This is a hard one. You will have to analyse packet loss and latency using tools such as PsPing, WinMTR and WireShark.

Also check the data path regarding:

- Azure Network Virtual Appliances and proxies

- Azure Network Security Group rules

- Windows Defender Firewall rules

- Third-party Antivirus programs

- High Azure VM CPU usage and disk IOPS

Also perform tests on a clean Azure VM on a new Azure Virtual Network.

In the past I resolved similar issues by moving all resources to a new Azure Virtual Network.

Please keep me posted!

Thanks for your reply.

So basically they are running a full desktop AWD AppStream 2.0 within AVD.

I have tested this in a separate tenant, no firewall, just straight azure backbone out, latency is low etc. But the performance within the application and feedback is just really bad.

Looks like it uses NICE DCV video compression protocol which I think isn't playing nicely with AVD.

I have asked Microsoft for a GPU VM to see if that will help matters.

Has anyone done an AWS Appstream 2.0 to AVD?
