AMA: Windows in the Cloud - September 20, 2023

Thanks for joining us for this AMA: Windows in the Cloud - September 20, 2023! We'll see you next month: AMA: Windows in the Cloud - October 18, 2023.

In addition to the questions posted on this page, we also answer questions posted in reply to the event on LinkedIn and Twitter -- as well as open questions in the Windows 365 Community. Here are the questions we answered today:

• What's the best way to deploy apps to Cloud PCs? I've seen a lot of methods, but want to know what will save me work down the line. - answered at 15:30.
• Can I mix and match? License types (Enterprise vs Frontline); join types (AAD vs HAADJ); various Azure regions, Microsoft-hosted network vs Azure VNET connection to my org’s LAN? - answered at 34:00.
• What needs to be allowed from a VPN Connection/Firewall perspective to access Windows 365? - answered at 38:40.
• I have users with different sized VMs. Do I use separate provisioning policies, groups, or both? - answered at 46:30.
• Does Windows 365 support the webcams, phones, printers/scanners we use with VMware services? - answered at 52:15.

Don't be shy, we're halfway through! Keep those questions flowing, and share information about use cases and scenarios you need to support. Post away in the Comments.

Are there any plans to allow Microsoft 365 Apps to be set as a dependency natively within Intune? Such as to allow the likes of Outlook Plugins that require the Office Packages to be installed beforehand to go through. Currently we need to use alternative methods to handle this, such as packaging the ODT, which feels far more clunky.

This would help greatly with streamlining out deployments, especially as we consider venturing into the Cloud PC era.

Welcome to today's AMA: Windows in the Cloud. Let's begin! Post your questions in the Comments, and we'll be answering questions here and in the live stream.
