>Azure Virtual Desktop stores various types of information like host pool names, app group names, workspace names, and user principal names in a datacenter. While creating any of the service objects, the customer has to enter the location where the object needs to be created. The location of this object determines where the information for the object will be stored. The customer will choose an Azure region and the related information will be stored in the associated geography. For a list of all Azure regions and related geographies, visit [https://azure.microsoft.com/global-infrastructure/geographies/](https://azure.microsoft.com/global-infrastructure/geographies/).

The location of this object determines where the information for the object will be stored. The customer will choose an Azure region and the related information will be stored in the associated geography. Customers also choose a region for the Session host Virtual Machines in an additional step in the deployment process. This region can be any Azure region, hence it can be the same region as the service objects or a separate region. For a list of all Azure regions and related geographies, visit [https://azure.microsoft.com/global-infrastructure/geographies/](https://azure.microsoft.com/global-infrastructure/geographies/).

The service doesn't directly store any user or app-related information, but it does store customer data like application names and user principal names because they're part of the object setup process. This information is stored in the geography associated with the region the customer created the object in.

To keep Azure Virtual Desktop reliable and scalable, we aggregate traffic patterns and usage to check the health and performance of the infrastructure control plane. For example, to understand how to ramp up regional infrastructure capacity as service usage increases, we process service usage log data. We then review the logs for peak times and decide which data centers to add to meet this capacity. We aggregate this information from all locations where the service infrastructure is, then send it to the US region. The data sent to the US region includes scrubbed data, but not customer data.

In addition we aggregate service-generated from all locations where the service infrastructure is, then send it to the US geography. The data sent to the US region includes scrubbed data, but not customer data.

More geographies will be added as the service grows. The stored information is encrypted at rest, and geo-redundant mirrors are maintained within the geography. Customer data, such as app settings and user data, resides in the location the customer chooses and isn't managed by the service.
