In this post we are going to describe how to deploy a VDI infrastructure with Microsoft Hyper-V and our VDI connection broker for Windows and Linux UDS Enterprise. The process of integrating UDS Enterprise with Microsoft Hyper-V is a simple task since its components are offered in Virtual Appliance format. Through a simple process, the UDS Enterprise components are hosted on the Microsoft Hyper-V platform on which the virtual desktops are going to be deployed. Once the components have been stored, it is necessary to interconnect all of them between each other as well as with the Microsoft Hyper-V virtual platform.
In addition to what is included in VMware Horizon 6, VMware is offering participation in an early access program for a Linux a virtual desktop solution.
VMware is expanding its virtual desktop capabilities to include support for Red Hat and Ubuntu based Linux-based desktops.
This enables customers to simplify desktop management using the VMware Horizon platform to access Windows and Linux applications.
During the last two weeks the most read articles in our blog were the selection of guides about OpenStack, the case study about the VDI platform in the University of Sevilla with UDS Enterprise & oVirt and the new features of UDS Enterprise, in particular the on-screen keyboard for mobile operating systems.
In case you didn’t have the chance to read them, find below the links to these posts:
The Citrix CEO Mark Templeton has announced that they will end sales on VDI-in-a-Box. This decision is part of a series of actions that the company is performing in order to reduce the number of products in its portfolio and give greater weight to the ones that generate higher benefits.
Templeton said that this desktop virtualization solution “will be replaced by a more simple one which will have a more competitive price”, but he hasn’t given any detail in this regard so far.
UDS Enterprise 1.7 incorporates an on-screen keyboard when accessing to our virtual desktop using any mobile OS, thanks to the incorporation of Guacamole’s latest enhancements.
This new feature allows you to enable a virtual keyboard using a simple gesture on mobile devices, which will facilitate to a great extent the management of virtual desktops from this type of devices.
The incorporation of this keyboard joins the list of new features included in the next version of UDS Enterprise, which will be released at the end of Q1 of this year 2015.
