Deploying a desktop virtualization platform with UDS Enterprise connection broker is a very easy task.
You only need a properly sized hardware platform for your deployment, a hypervisor and an authentication system that fits the project’s needs and the licenses for the Windows and Linux OS or vApp to virtualize.
In case of hypervisors, you can choose between Citrix XenServer, Microsoft Hyper-V, Nutanix Acropolis, RHEV KVM, oVirt KVM, VMware vSphere… or even enable several ones at the same time. UDS Enterprise allows to migrate from one hypervisor to another in a quick and effective way, providing great flexibility to the VDI infrastructure.
Dell announced this week at Citrix Synergy in Las Vegas a new portfolio of virtual workspace solutions, including new VDI thin client to meet the demands of the modern workplace:
–Wyse 7040, specially designed to provide a high level of security to meet the needs of the Federal market. It includes Trusted Platform Module and BitLocker and supports other advanced protection softwares. It can be configured with Windows Embedded Standard 7p and it is Windows 10 IoT ready.
The UDS Enterprise team highly recommends keeping UDS Enterprise software always updated to enjoy the last functionalities and improvements added to each new release.
As described in this paper, UDS Enterprise update is a quick and easy process, but we should bear in mind that it can only be performed between contiguous versions.
Citrix announced at Synergy conference in Las Vegas the availability of the latest release of XenServer 7 virtualization platform.
This new version enhances hypervisor security with a new Direct Inspect API, simplifies 3D graphics virtualization and improves support for Microsoft Windows environments.
XenServer 7 boosts graphics virtualization with Intel Iris Pro on-CPU Graphics Processing Unit (GPU), reducing costs to run graphics-intensive applications, such as web browsers, productivity tools like Microsoft PowerPoint, Computer Aided Design (CAD) and enterprise 3D data visualization software. It requires no additional hardware or licenses and accelerates graphical workloads of many types.
UDS Actor is a key component in UDS Enterprise platform, it provides extra levels of security, effectiveness, automation and efficiency when performing certain tasks.
It is the agent responsible for the interaction between a virtual desktop and UDS Enterprise connection broker. This agent sets up vitual desktops according to the OS Manager chosen by the platform admin (an OS Manager defines whether a desktop is persistent or non-persistent, in Windows domain, Linux OS…)
