Migrating to VMware Horizon Cloud on Azure can help your organization take advantage of modern cloud capabilities. This includes improved security through integrated features, reduced hardware and infrastructure costs, and simplified management that allows for quick deployment and scaling. Additionally, it provides a familiar user experience and a flexible licensing model that supports on-premises, cloud, and hybrid environments.

Before migrating, ensure you have an Azure subscription, a synchronized Active Directory (either on-premises or Azure AD), and the necessary licenses for the operating systems you plan to use. Additionally, your virtual network should have access to the Active Directory instance, and the virtual desktops must be domain-joined.

Azure Migrate provides a dedicated wizard that helps you assess your current desktop virtualization environment. It allows you to register your Azure subscription, create a migration project, and select tools for assessment and migration. By using Azure Migrate, you can gather insights about your existing infrastructure, which aids in determining the best migration path and resource sizing for Horizon Cloud on Azure.
