Remote Desktop Services (RDS)

 

If you want to use the Remote Desktop service, then this will be a good solution.

Once you deploy this package you will be end up with creating below mentioned components automatically in your Azure environment. 

1 Domain controller VM
2 RDS infrastructure VMs
3 RDSH virtual machines
4 Public IP address and
5 Other required networking components for the RDS deployment.

Depending on your requirements, you can set up the RDS solution for session-based virtualization, as a virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI), or as a combination of the two. VDI deployment steps can be found below,

First go into MarketPlace and search for  "Remote Desktop Services (RDS) - Basic - Dev/Test" 

Click create to continue.

If you get an error  like below, Go to settings and change the directory.

Then you will be able to create your RDS environment. Fill in the basic information with the Username and the password. Select the location which is nearby or close to the source which you want to access.

For an example, if you want to access some hosted application in Australia and if the direct access is very slow, then you can deploy RDSH environment in Australia-East or West data centers and remote desktop into that environment and open the source application or the get the connection from there.

If you want, you can change the public IP settings to Static.

Give a DNS name.

Select the correct Server image that you want to use.

Set the VM sizes that you want for RDSH, RD and the AD. Depend on your requirement, you can select the size of the VM's. But this you can change later also.

When you change the number of RDSH instances automatically cost will be go up.

Read the Summary carefully to avoid any misconfigurations. :)

You have to agree to the Terms.

It took 2 hours to complete.
