This white paper from Ziff Davis Media highlights the manageability and availability benefits that you can gain by moving from conventional desktop PCs to a Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI). Similar to server virtualization, VDI offers many advantages, including the ability to:

  • Reduce and simplify daily administrative tasks
  • Improve support times
  • Quickly add, delete, upgrade, and patch applications
  • Protect data through centralized security
  • Streamline an enterprise-wide OS upgrade such as a move to Windows Vista
