Reduce Cost and Complexity for AVD and Windows 365 Cloud PC operations
Hydra: the practical management layer for Windows in the Cloud
Designed for Azure Virtual Desktop (both cloud and on-premise) and Windows 365, Hydra gives IT teams a simpler, more cost-efficient way to run Windows in the Cloud day to day, at scale.
Instead of managing multiple native Azure portals, scripts, and tools, teams operate everything through a single, familiar operational layer. The result is lower operational overhead and predictable, consumption-based costs as environments scale.
