Azure Network Performance, Proximity Placement Groups and Accelerated Networking

In this video I go over the benefits of using Azure Proximity Placement Groups and Accelerated networking with Azure IaaS VM’s. I start by explaining what Proximity Placement Groups are and how they work, then go over the basics of Accelerated Networking. After that, I deploy a Proximity Placement Group and accelerated networking and compare results with and without the features enabled.

Really nice demo. Thanks for the video

As always nice Video Travis, quick question from my side, maybe you have a hint on this: We have an AVD environment with an SQL Server, VM's are bundled in a proximitly placement group. But if we auto start and stop the VM's after the start they aren't together anymore... so we have latency problems or high azure cost

Hi Travis. Another great video. We have an opportunity for a Windows Virtual Desktop solution and a desktop application which would need proxmity with an SQL database server. Is it possible to retrospectively move WVD hosts into a proximity placement group alongside the SQL server to keep latency to a minimum? IE if normal placement wasnt fast enough, could we subsequently and retrospectively move WVD hosts and SQL server into a proximity placement group without breaking anything? Im not seeing Windows 10 Multisession on the list of supported OSs

Hello, not sure if you've found the answer to this question yourself yet as I see your post was a little while ago. As I understand it you can move the Availability groups the standard WVD provision a host pool creates into a Prox Group, you won't be able to enabled accelerated networking I blieve though as that's is I think only supported by Server operating systems at present?

This video is too long, you enable Accelerated Networking in 5 seconds...
