DR for Session Host Pools in NMM

While checking up on guidance for using FSLogix Cloud Cache I realized that DR for Session Host Pools is an available feature in NME, but not NMM.   (If it is, I am not aware)

While I cannot see exactly how it looks and works in NME because I am NMM, I would love to see this as an option for both cost estimation, AND deployment in NMM.   Most customers understand that we structure our solutions to be easily redeployed in an alternate region, but some customers do insist on paying extra for a DR solution, which has to be estimated manually.   If it is there in NME, it seems like a pretty simply lift to port that over to NME.

Great idea for Cloud Cache users/companies!
I know we tested out cloud cache when we were trying to go 100% Cloud, but ultimately decided not to use it.

Just for context, we have a customer who uses NME and this is what the Discovery Recovery settings look like in their environment. 🙂

Thank you for the screenshot - I'd love to know if there is a rhyme or reason why this never passed along to AVD.     Not to mention, being able to cost estimate this would also be beneficial, to keep it streamlined.  I have a seperate feature request on that topic (Estimating DR for AVD -and- IaaS) - but recognize it may be a bit more niche.

We get a notable amount of customers interested in DR, and ultimately they are typically happy with our recovery plan in the event of a regional outage, but to date, have yet to have to execute it anywhere (kudos to Azure there I think).   I look at it as an oppurtunity to upsell and bring more value to the customer if we can offer the price and solution alongside no-DR.
