That'll do it for this course, we've covered Azure Virtual Desktops, host pools, and session hosts. We built and managed them using the portal and multiple automation methods, and we also touched on our monitoring of our new resources. And of course, we've just scratched the surface on what's possible, so test things for yourself and practice your automation because there will be a test. Please respond to the survey at the end of this course and let me know how I did, and your feedback is more than welcome, so I can improve. And please don't forget to direct message me on social media and let me know that you are now AVD certified. Thanks for joining me for this course, and happy learning.
