You are designing an Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD) environment for 500 remote employees.

You plan to use Windows 10 Enterprise multi-session. Users need their application settings, browser history, and files to persist across sessions, regardless of which session host VM they connect to. You want a fully managed PaaS storage solution to store these user profiles.

Which technology combination should you recommend?

Answer options:

A.

Roaming User Profiles stored on Azure Blob Storage

B.

FSLogix profile containers stored on Azure Files

C.

Folder Redirection stored on a Windows Server VM

D.

FSLogix profile containers stored on Azure NetApp Files

How to approach this question

Identify the modern profile solution for AVD (FSLogix) and the standard PaaS SMB storage (Azure Files).

Full Answer

B.FSLogix profile containers stored on Azure Files✓ Correct
For Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD) environments, FSLogix profile containers are the recommended solution for managing user profiles. FSLogix encapsulates the user profile into a VHDX file, which is dynamically mounted to the session host VM when the user logs in. This ensures fast login times and persistence across multi-session environments. To store these VHDX files using a fully managed PaaS solution, Azure Files (accessed via SMB) is the standard and most cost-effective architectural choice.

Common mistakes

Choosing Roaming Profiles (legacy and slow) or IaaS file servers (violates the PaaS requirement).
