Using Windows on an iPad will be possible thanks to Windows 365

Windows on iPad

While from Apple they affirm that both iPadOS and macOS will not converge at some point, the movements of the company point in another direction or at least that is what most users think that if we would like to see it, since by power it is not, being the iPad Pro with the M1 processor the clearest example.

While at Apple They haven't just revealed what they want to do with the iPad Pro, from Microsoft they have presented Windows 365. Windows 365 allows users to use a full version of Windows through a browser, so it will be compatible with each and every device and operating system with access to a browser: iPad, Mac, iPhone, Android devices, Linux ...

In this way, all iPad users who want to enjoy a desktop operating system on their device, they will be able to do so through Windows 365. This feature will be officially launched on August 2 and will only be available for businesses at the moment, but will eventually also be available for home users.

Windows 365 will work through a monthly subscription, which will likely be priced similarly (in its basic configuration to Microsoft 365, the old Office 365). Microsoft will allow you to choose both the amount of RAM, as well as the storage space and the number of processor cores where your virtual version of Windows will run.

By working through a browser, we will be able to quickly change devices continuing the work where we left off. Microsoft claims that it has taken steps to keep PCs safe in the cloud thanks to the Zero Trust architecture. It goes without saying that all stored traffic and data is obviously encrypted.

Windows 365 has been built on its Azure Virtual Desktop platform, which allows company administrators to fully monitor the PCs that are part of the organization, although everything seems to indicate that system administrators they will have much more free time.

Mac users They can also take advantage of Windows 365 without having to install a copy of Windows through Boot Camp or using Parallels. We could consider that Windows 365 is the same as the cloud video game platform of the same company and that it allows us to use it on any platform through a browser.
