Citrix Cloud with Azure using a Raspberry PI 3 VDI Client

I've recently had a lot of interaction with customers who have asked about Microsoft's partnership with Citrix.  More specifically, different people have asked how Citrix Cloud can be coupled with Azure in order to deploy a Citrix XenDesktop environment into Azure IaaS.

In this video, I don't necessarily show the setup process.  But, I do demonstrate a Raspberry PI 3 VDI client connecting to Citrix Cloud hosted Storefront and running XenDesktop/XenApp from a Windows Server 2016 machine in Azure.  One interesting thing is seeing how responsive a YouTube video is while running on a Raspberry PI.  Instead of the typical constraints imposed by the PI (e.g. processor, RAM, etc.), I'm leveraging the full resources of Windows Server while letting the VDI client simply render changes in the video to the user.  The performance, I believe, is quite good - especially, when considering the possible deployment of such a device within the enterprise.

All in all, this makes for a very secure, economical VDI client.
