On-demand Webinar: Why VDI? An Introduction

Whether you are in the process of researching VDI solutions, implementing VDI in a trial or proof-of-concept environment, or preparing for a large-scale VDI deployment, you require a solution that makes VDI work for you - for your existing and future infrastructure, your users, your budget, and your organization's desktop security and usage policies.

It goes without saying that your VDI needs to be robust, highly resistant to failure and flexible enough to meet individual user needs, but there are a host of other considerations that need to be addressed in order to make your VDI rollout a success. For example:

  • Is there more than one type of directory service to be integrated?
  • Can the system pool and hard-assign machines to meet the needs of varied user groups?
  • Can the system manage cross-domain authentication? Even without trusts?
  • Will management tools impose limitations on underlying systems, the users that can be accommodated, and the architectural design of the system?

You will most likely need to incorporate a range of systems - current, legacy and future - if VDI is to serve as a true replacement for traditional desktop computing. Whether VMware, Citrix, Microsoft, Linux, Sun, ActiveDirectory, eDirectory - or a mix of all - you need a way to tie all of the pieces together, get up and running quickly, and deliver an outstanding desktop experience to your end users.
