 ## Microsoft Dev Box architecture
 
-The *hosted on behalf of* architecture lets Microsoft services, after they’re delegated appropriate and scoped permissions to a virtual network by a subscription owner, attach hosted Azure services to a customer subscription. This connectivity model lets a Microsoft service provide software-as-a-service and user licensed services as opposed to standard consumption-based services.

Therefore, Microsoft incurs the costs for running and managing this infrastructure. Dev boxes are deployed in a subscription managed by Microsoft and connected to the customer's VNET. 
 
 Microsoft Dev Box manages the capacity and in-region availability in the Microsoft Dev Box subscriptions. Microsoft Dev Box determines the Azure region to host your dev boxes based on the network connection you select when creating a dev box pool.

 For the network connection, you can also choose between a Microsoft-hosted network connection, and an Azure network connection that you create in your own subscription.

-Microsoft Intune is used to manage your dev boxes. Every Dev Box user needs one Microsoft Intune license and can create multiple dev boxes. After a dev box is provisioned, you can manage it like any other Windows device in Microsoft Intune. For example, you can create [device configuration profiles](/mem/intune/configuration/device-profiles) to turn different settings on and off in Windows, or push apps and updates to your users’ dev boxes.
