I was imprecise in my wording. You cannot bring a shared Windows 10 virtual desktop to any provider that is not Microsoft Azure. Azure uses a delivery model based on tech for education customers that allowed 4-5 K-12 students to work from 1 PC via thin clients, and that model is only available on Azure. (And it's really cheap.)

If you do BYOL of Windows 10 on a non-Azure cloud service, you need to meet specific Microsoft EA requirements, and you must run on dedicated hardware. If you look at the AWS BYOL model for Workspaces, it very similar in cost to the Apple on AWS model. (https://aws.amazon.com/workspaces/pricing)
