PDQ in Azure VM - best practices for storing installers/packages?
I'm needing to deploy PDQ into an Azure VM. The VM would be on a network that has connectivity to our on-prem network via an IPSec tunnel.
Question I have is, where should I store the installer/packages? I'm considering either putting them on an Azure File Share if possible, or keeping them on an on-prem file server that most computers will have closer connectivity to most of the time.
I am not sure if PDQ server is pulling the files to itself first, or simply telling the computer where to pull the piles from upon executing the deployment,

You can configure that with the Copy Mode setting: https://link.pdq.com/docs-PDQDeploy?performance.htm
I recommend Pull with a local fileserver so you're not eating up a ton of bandwidth. You can even use DFS if you want to: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X0LOhhnSHlw
