Desktop and Virtualization 101: - Understanding VDI and DaaS
The growing demand for remote work has solidified the need to deliver a hybrid workplace, making desktop and app virtualization more critical than ever. What deployment options are available to help your organization benefit from desktop and app virtualization? Download the infographic for an at-a-glance of the basics — including how you benefit.
What is desktop and app virtualization?
Desktop and app virtualization is a software technology that centrally hosts virtual desktops and applications in a data center or cloud. This allows users to securely access resources from any remotely connected device, making it easier to adapt to the demands of remote work.
How do VDI and DaaS differ?
VDI involves using virtual machines to provide and manage virtual desktops, requiring organizations to handle management responsibilities such as desktop management and OS licenses. In contrast, DaaS is a cloud service where a provider delivers virtual desktops over the internet, taking care of management tasks like server maintenance and support.
What are the benefits of using virtualization?
Virtualization enhances flexibility by allowing quick deployment of new desktops or app resources, secures data by centralizing it in the cloud, simplifies management by reducing complexity, ensures compliance with regulatory standards, and improves productivity by enabling access to desktops and applications from any device and location.
