Which two solutions are natively supported with NetApp Virtual Desktop Service? (Choose two.)

NetApp Virtual Desktop Service (VDS), now part of the Spot by NetApp portfolio, is a control plane for deploying and managing virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) in the major public clouds. It is designed to natively integrate with the VDI offerings from these cloud providers. VDS provides automation and management for Microsoft's Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD), which was formerly known as Windows Virtual Desktop. It also offers native support for managing and deploying Amazon WorkSpaces on AWS, simplifying the lifecycle management and storage optimization for these environments.

B. Citrix Virtual Desktops Essentials: NetApp VDS is not designed to natively manage Citrix environments; its focus is on the VDI platforms provided directly by Microsoft, AWS, and Google Cloud.

C. Remote Desktop Protocol: RDP is a communication protocol used to connect to virtual desktops. It is not a VDI platform or solution that VDS would natively manage.
