The question is not explicit about the environment of the deployment, whether its for Production or DevTest. While the answer is correct, but why would Azure DevTest Labs be the answer for this scenario? Wouldn't ARM templates be useful?

it was mention that "developers intend to deploy and remove VM in the same week". Keyword is "developers" and "deploy and remove". Most probably is it the test environment. So DevTest is correct answer and more relevant to this scenario I guess.

they can use ARM templates for VM configuration and DevTest Labs for auto start and auto shutdown of VMs

I understand your point, but the key word here is developers. In this case, the ideal option is Azure DevTest Labs, as it is a tool made for this type of situation. If there were no developers involved in the issue, then it would be ARM Templates.

DevTest Labs are perfect for this scenario while they want to create 50 VMs they also want to DECOMISSION them in a very short period of time. that spells completely: test environment.

Answer correct. It is not Microsoft Managed Desktop. Welcome to Microsoft Managed Desktop Microsoft Managed Desktop brings together Microsoft 365 Enterprise, cloud-based device management by Microsoft, and security monitoring, enabling you to free your IT team to focus on core business needs. Currently, the Microsoft Managed Desktop service is offered only by invitation. Learn more on Microsoft docs or contact your Microsoft account manager. If you’re unfamiliar with Microsoft Managed Desktop, learn more about the service.

Selected Answer: B
Microsoft Managed Desktop is a managed service for Windows 10/11 desktops and does not provide capabilities to manage large numbers of custom Windows Server or Linux virtual machines in Azure. It will not reduce the administrative effort required for frequent VM creation and deletion across different operating systems. Other Azure services like Azure DevTest Labs or Azure Automation would be more suitable.

No Microsoft Managed Desktop is designed for managing Windows 10/11 devices, not for deploying and removing custom virtual machines with Windows Server 2016 or Ubuntu Linux. A more suitable Azure service would be Azure Virtual Machine Scale Sets or Azure Automation to streamline the deployment and removal process with minimal administrative effort.

Selected Answer: B
The solution does not meet the goal. Microsoft Managed Desktop is a service designed for managing Windows 10/11 devices, not for deploying and managing virtual machines (VMs) on Azure. It primarily focuses on providing a managed, secure desktop environment for end-user devices rather than handling the dynamic deployment of VMs. For the scenario described, where a large number of custom VMs are deployed and removed on a weekly basis, a more appropriate Azure service would be Azure Virtual Machine Scale Sets or Azure DevTest Labs. These services can automate the deployment and management of VMs, making it easier to scale up and down as needed, thereby reducing administrative effort.

B. No Microsoft Managed Desktop is a service designed for managing and securing Windows 10 devices. It provides services like device management, security updates, and support for Windows desktops but does not handle the creation and management of virtual machines. For managing a large number of virtual machines that are frequently deployed and removed, you would typically use: Azure Virtual Machine Scale Sets: These allow you to manage and scale a set of virtual machines easily, automating deployment and scaling tasks. Azure Automation: This service can automate repetitive tasks, such as creating and deleting virtual machines based on schedules or triggers. Azure Resource Manager (ARM) Templates: Define and deploy virtual machines in a consistent manner using infrastructure-as-code practices. Therefore, recommending Microsoft Managed Desktop does not address the needs for managing and automating virtual machine lifecycle tasks. The correct answer is B. No.

To reduce administrative effort for deploying and removing virtual machines on a large scale, you would typically use Infrastructure as Code (IaC) solutions such as Azure Resource Manager (ARM) templates, Azure PowerShell, Azure CLI, or Azure Automation. These tools allow you to define the desired state of your infrastructure in code, enabling automated deployment, scaling, and management of resources in Azure. Hence the Answer is B
