Any timeline on availability of host pools in UK South?

tom-2040 You can deploy host pools today in UK South - in fact you have always been able to. The host pools can be located in any available Azure region - there are no limitations to that. The WVD gateway service through which the RDP traffic flows to get to the host pool VM's in not available in every single Azure region, however the UK geography is one of those that is covered. So effectively you are good to go and deloy in the UK today.
The only other service that currently has geographical limitations is the metadata service, however that is shortly coming to the EU and other geo's will follow further down the line. Keep an eye on the WVD roadmap at aka.ms/wvdroadmap
