Apart from the best-known advantages brought by desktop virtualization, such as cost savings and the improvement in the management of IT resources, the deployment of virtual desktops also facilitates the work of IT administrators when they have to to give support and install updates.
The effectiveness of the support service directly impacts in the business, since the time that goes by when a PC stops operating until the issue is repaired is an inactive time for the user, so the company’s productivity is automatically affected.
We continue our post series about VDI adoption and lifecycle management of virtual desktops. In previous articles we talked about the planning , acquisition and the deployment of the new fleet of desktops. Today this analysis comes to an end talking about operating with virtual desktops.
Operating with virtual desktops has certain significant differences with respect to operating with standard platforms:
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:
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.
Adopting virtual desktops greatly affects the desktops’ lifecycle in each of its stages, improving operations and providing better customer service and updates management as well as desktop security.
Today we begin a series of posts dealing with each one of the desktop lifecycle stages and the resulting improvements that come from implementing virtual PCs.
First of all we are going to talk about Planning. During this stage, the server platform, shared storage and software that will manage the virtual desktop fleet are defined. In this case, calculations are made to determine which shared resources are needed to host the virtual desktops. Making a pilot or concept test is essential in this phase.
