In some cases, when analyzing the storage needs for a VDI platform we look at saving disk space when using template-based or non-persistent desktops. Nevertheless, it is necessary to bear in mind that all the I/O operations on disc in a standard job platform are made on local discs located in each post.
In a VDI environment, all these I/O operations take place concurrently on shared storage. Tasks such as updates of OS patches, antivirus, user logins scans... produce a large amount of concurrent I/O operations that are referred to as "storms". These storms produce a deterioration in the performance of the storage because these I/O operations are accumulated in queues and this, obviously, causes an irregular performance of the virtual desktops.
Therefore, it is essential to know what are the necessary IOPS so that our VDI operates with full guarantees, using technologies such as SSDs, disks tiering, etc.
Virtual desktop infrastructure plays a fundamental role in remote and hybrid work models by providing workers with flexibility and mobility without compromising security or performance.
The term “Cloud Computing” refers to the use of computing resources (servers, storage, computing capacity, databases, networks, software) over the Internet.
Discover the advantages of virtual desktops: the solution that redefines remote work by allowing access to the work environment at any time, from anywhere, and from any device.
We explain in depth what Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) is, its advantages, types, implementation and how you can digitize your company’s workplaces with this solution.
Much of the success of technological evolution goes through virtualization. A concept that, outside the technical world, is becoming more widespread. It hides a power that, up to now, we have only timidly begun to explore.
In recent years, much has been written about the advantages of virtualization and the many benefits it brings to companies; especially, after the strong irruption of remote working driven by the pandemic.
