Frequently Asked Questions
Windows 365 is Microsoft's Cloud PC service that streams a full Windows desktop from Azure to any device. Big Hat Group designs Windows 365 reference architectures and deploys Cloud PCs at enterprise scale.
Windows 365 is a fixed-price, per-user Cloud PC โ simple to provision and manage through Intune. AVD is consumption-based and more flexible, but requires deeper Azure infrastructure expertise. Big Hat Group helps organizations choose the right fit and can deploy either.
OpenClaw is an open-source AI agent platform that runs on Windows, macOS, or Linux. It connects AI models to your tools โ email, calendars, Jira, Azure, Intune, Teams โ through a conversational interface. Big Hat Group deploys OpenClaw on Windows 365 Cloud PCs for isolated, auditable AI agent environments.
With the right architecture, yes. The key principles are: isolated execution environments (such as dedicated Cloud PCs), granular permissions, absolute audit trails (every action is logged separately from human activity), and sandboxed network access. Big Hat Group designs these architectures for regulated enterprises.
We offer instructor-led courses on Windows 365, Intune, Azure, and AI agent deployment. Our flagship is Windows 365 Now โ the fastest zero-to-hero Cloud PC deployment course. We also produce open-source training materials and reference architectures.
