A few days ago, we analyzed in a post the advantages and disadvantages of persistent virtual desktops. To complete that information and gather all the data to decide which type of virtual desktops is the best for us to deploy, today we’re going to do the same with non-persistent virtual desktops:
When users access non-persistent desktops, none of their application data or configurations is saved with the desktop. When the session is over, the virtual desktop returns to its original state before another user can connect, or it is destroyed and assigns the user a new virtual desktop each time a connection is made.
More than 5,500 professionals of the technology industry are attending from yesterday until next Friday TechEd Europe 2014 in Barcelona, the Microsoft conference oriented to IT professionals and developers. During the first day the company announced new cloud services, mobility solutions, APIs, tools, and an extended ecosystem of partner solutions.
Among the innovations, we emphasize the innovations in Azure to help streamline operations:
Azure Operational Insights brings together Azure, HDInsight and Microsoft System Center to gather and analyze machine data across cloud environments and turn it into actionable insights that inform business decisions. Available in preview in November 2014.
Government institutions and organizations are increasingly aware of the benefits involved in the use of Open Source solutions. Migration of servers and desktop systems to free models are usual actions because of the benefits in terms of cost savings and flexibility.
A prime example is the US Government or the City of Bloomington both commited to use of Open Source software.

Choosing a storage technology for VDI because of vendor loyalty may lead to a wrong decision. Administrators should take into account different points to select the storage for virtual desktops.
VDI expert Brian Madden explained at a seminar in New York the storage requierements for a virtual desktop infraestructure and the importance of choosing the right option.
Did you realize Linux is present each day in more technological environments? Thanks to the free software flexibility and Open Source possibilities for collaborative development, the developments with this operating system are increasingly numerous and do not adhere only to PCs.
Mobile devices are one of these areas. Not only Android is based on Linux. Some of the new mobile operating systems, like Tizen, Sailfish OS or Firefox OS also carry the heart of the penguin software.
VMworld Europe 2014 opened today in Barcelona. In this first day of one of the most outstanding virtualization and cloud computing events, VMware announced new products, program and service that add to the growing list of innovative solutions for end-user computing. Among them is VMware Horizon FLEX that will enable enterprises to centrally provision, manage and secure virtual desktops and applications running locally on Macs and PCs, using policy-based controls to more securely embrace bring your own (BYO) policies.
In addition, a new cloud service for desktop disaster recovery will allow organizations to protect their business and enhance workforce continuity, expansion of cloud hosted services in Europe will open opportunities for customers, and a new storage program will help customers quickly predict and control virtual desktop deployment costs at scale.
