In this post we continue our analysis on VDI adoption and lifecycle management of virtual desktops. In previous articles we discussed about the planning and acquisition phases, and today we talk about the deployment of the new fleet of desktops
Desktop virtualization offers a great advantage when managing computers, because with the VDI management software and from a single administration point, you can complete almost all the tasks that allow you to deploy the virtual desktops:
Today’s technology landscape could have its days numbered. Winds of change are set to blow in the area of cloud computing, network technologies and new developments related to the Internet of Things (IOT) and online gaming are arising. Find below a compilation of some articles that talk about the most highlighted technology predictions for 2015 thanks to Internap.
The cloud has come to stay. According to IDC’s Worldwide Quarterly Cloud IT Infrastructure Tracker , during Q3 of 2014 total cloud infrastructure revenue for the quarter grew over $6.5 billion, 16 % higher than that in the same dates of 2013.
These data highlight the rise of the cloud phenomenon. In fact, the consultant explains in its report that during the last months of the year one third of the budget spent on “infrastructure of servers, storage on disk and Ethernet switch” was intended for cloud computing.
In our post today we go back to VDI adoption and its involvement in the lifecycle management of the virtual desktops. A few days ago we talked about the planning phase and today we focus on the acquisition one. This is approximately 50% of the total cost of the desktop lifecycle.
At this stage, negotiations will be conducted for the purchase of the server platform that will host the virtual desktops and the unpacking of the platform will also be carried out. The IT department will work on the physical installation and connection of the components, the installation of peripherals and image creation (OS and applicationinstallation).
Later, there comes the moment to deploy the new fleet of desktops, a topic that we will describe in next articles.
If you still need to buy some of them and you are evaluating the possibility of giving technology, we advise you to follow the recommendations of the Free Software Foundation (FSF) and choose those products, software or subscriptions which do not have restrictions, give freedom to the user to share them and don’t force him to pay any license.
