VDI platform with UDS Enterprise: Requirements

VDI platform with UDS Enterprise: Requirements

Deploying a desktop virtualization platform with UDS Enterprise connection broker is a very easy task.

You only need a properly sized hardware platform for your deployment, a hypervisor and an authentication system that fits the project’s needs and the licenses for the Windows and Linux OS or vApp to virtualize.

In case of hypervisors, you can choose between Citrix XenServer, Microsoft Hyper-V, Nutanix Acropolis, RHEV KVM, oVirt KVM, VMware vSphere… or even enable several ones at the same time. UDS Enterprise allows to migrate from one hypervisor to another in a quick and effective way, providing great flexibility to the VDI infrastructure.

The UDS Enterprise team highly recommends keeping UDS Enterprise software always updated to enjoy the last functionalities and improvements added to each new release.

As described in this paper, UDS Enterprise update is a quick and easy process, but we should bear in mind that it can only be performed between contiguous versions.

UDS Actor automates and simplifies VDI management

UDS Actor is a key component in UDS Enterprise platform, it provides extra levels of security, effectiveness, automation and efficiency when performing certain tasks.

It is the agent responsible for the interaction between a virtual desktop and UDS Enterprise connection broker. This agent sets up vitual desktops according to the OS Manager chosen by the platform admin (an OS Manager defines whether a desktop is persistent or non-persistent, in Windows domain, Linux OS…)

Our development team has adapted the system to support workload balancing and provide the system with high availability. This new release fixes OpenSSL vulnerability, a bug external to UDS Enterprise but that may affect the proper working of a deployment with UDS Enterprise.

UDS Enterprise’s sophisticated authentication system

UDS Enterprise’s sophisticated authentication system

UDS Enterprise, the multiplatform connection broker to deploy and manage virtual and physical desktops, applications and other Windows and Linux services, features a unique authentication system that not only supports different authentication methods, but also allows to use them simultaneously and enable splitted authentication.

The broker incorporates an internal database authenticator which enables connections to any registered service in the system using a single generic connection user.
