Advantages of Linux virtual desktops

The versatility of UDS Enterprise allows connection to Linux machines using a wide variety of alternatives, among which are those that incorporate access via HTML5. The broker itself is responsible for automating the deployment of Linux virtual desktops, managing their life cycles at all times.

A user station based on Linux provides many advantages, for example, a greater security, since it is more difficult to attack this operating system through malware and the system complicates the execution of actions or the running of processes that are harmful. If it detects them, it isolates them very quickly thanks to its modular nature.

Differences between SDN and network virtualization

Differences between SDN and network virtualization

They seem similar concepts, but they don’t mean the same. Software-defined networking and network virtualization share some features, such as the objective of improving the agility to direct the right network resources to virtual machines. But their design and architecture are different.

This article outlines the differences and helps to understand the way both technologies work:
