Following our habit of collecting the most read posts of each month, in this article we collect the Top 3 of March. The most visited publications have a common topic, which is now the quintessential current IT topic: remote work.
The newspaper El Economista, leader of the economic press in Spain and surpassed only by The Wall Street Journal at an international level, has echoed the advantages of using UDS Enterprise as a remote working solution.
To analyze the challenges faced by organizations that have to implement remote work quickly due to the current health crisis, this newspaper has published a complete interview with Félix Casado, CEO of Virtual Cable, a company that develops and supports the UDS Enterprise connection broker for desktop and application virtualization. The full interview is available at this link.
Remote work was gradually being installed in our lives; some companies were progressively implementing it. But the current health crisis is accelerating this process and is leading companies to look for a solution that helps their employees to continue working from home as fast as possible to keep the production cycle alive at the lower cost that this situation allows. Desktop and application virtualization is an essential technology to provide a fast, efficient and secure solution.
When designing the infrastructure that will make remote working viable, it is convenient to analyze the needs of each group of users, so that all of them can carry out their tasks seamlessly. Workstations using graphics-intensive applications require a special mention, since if the right components are not used, it will be impossible to provide a good user experience. Choosing an appropriate connection protocol is essential to provide the best performance at both image and audio level.
Since the very beginning of its professional activity, VirtualCable has had a close relationship with the educational sector in general and with the Spanish universities in particular. We have worked closely with many of them making custom developments to facilitate the adoption of desktop and application virtualization technology.
We have also collaborated on joint projects to make available to the entire educational community functionalities that did not exist to date (such as the access to VDI and vApp through Moodle), which simplify IT work and help teachers and students improve their academic experience.
It seems that with each passing year, more companies are experimenting with or fully implementing VDI. While there have been some clumsy and imperfect examples of VDI software and usage here and there, businesses today are coming to recognize a number of benefits they can enjoy by putting a reliable virtual desktop system in place. In this piece we want to explore some of those benefits by pointing out a few reasons to consider adopting VDI in your organization.
