Windows Virtual Desktop is generally available!
soloji Did you check with the new user experience estimator we have? Is it really giving you that high a latency? I'm getting 240ms for RT from WUS to Australia Central 2 (which is not the best but definitely better than 540).

By end of 2019, we will have service instance in Japan and that should considerably reduce your RT to double digits.
I am also interested in this answer but I think from above there are no rd gateway servers in Australia with Japan to be next (hopefully not final) region that will be closer than US
Hopefully, it's quite unusable. I might start deploying but get clients to use the traditional RDP client over secure connection.
evasse well according to https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-desktop/overview:
For optimal performance, make sure your network meets the following requirements:
- Round-trip (RTT) latency from the client's network to the Azure region where host pools have been deployed should be less than 150 ms.
as long as you deploy your host pool in the AU region you should be fine?
my traffic however is still being passed via the US.
Paul Maranzano: Review https://aka.ms/wvdgetstarted to review features that are available in Windows Virtual Desktop. FSLogix is available for RDS - see more here.
In addition, if we do deploy WVD and use the standard RDP client with direct RDP until latency comes down and experience is acceptable, what functionality will we lose?
Can we still utilize FSLogix? Scaling?I am also interested in an AUS gateway option. Even with Japan latency to AU region will be less than ideal. At the moment its 400ms RTT on the experience estimator tool.
What about after Japan? Surely it can’t be hard to deploy an RD Gateway within Australia. is there a timeline?

Hi
The egress DNS of the user is used for routing to the nearest gateway. Location-wise, your connections should be going to West US gateway. If you have google DNS then you can see the connections going to West US, for now and later in Japan.
