The success of Linux VDI deployments is based on the proper choice of all components that make up the infrastructure. Regardless of the chosen connection broker, experts warn that only a correct combination of the connection protocol and the Linux window manager will provide a good user experience.
Microsoft’s Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) allows remote connection to a computer to provide, for example, computer support. The ability to take control of the computer is a very useful feature for users, but also for cybercriminals.
Undoubtedly one of the outstanding features of our VDI connection broker UDS Enterprise is native support of Linux desktops. In fact, in many cases it has been a decisive feature for our customers to opt for our software. This is the case of the Autonomous University of Madrid . Julio Álvarez, Systems Manager of the IT Support Technical Unit of this center, explains that they chose UDS Enterprise because “we wanted to deploy Linux desktops and it was the only VDI solution that allowed us to do it“.
After the summer break, we have daily updated our blog with interesting news about our VDI UDS Enterprise connection broker, and we have echoed the most relevant information in the sector of virtualization in general and desktop virtualization in particular, and about software and Open Source developments.
