    VMware on VMware Blogs

    In this blog, I discuss the adoption of a private cloud has opened up many opportunities for VMware IT, including the flexibility to ‘fail fast’ or try out new ideas to improve the efficiency of our operations. Our idea was to create a pre-production environment where we could test early builds of end-user computing (EUC) products such as VMware Horizon, VMware App Volumes, and User Environment Manager (UEM) before they were deployed into production.

Our idea was to create a pre-production environment where we could test early builds of end-user computing (EUC) products such as VMware Horizon, VMware App Volumes, and User Environment Manager (UEM) before they were deployed into production. We also wanted to give feedback to R&D on issues we encountered so they could be addressed before the product was made generally available. IT has had success in deploying early releases of VMware vSphere, VMware vRealize, and VMware NSX in our private cloud and we wanted to apply the same process to the EUC portfolio.

    Unisys Research Whitepapers

    Since 2006, the business drivers and the technologies available for desktop virtualization have expanded. IT now is faced with an explosion of non-Windows tablets, the desire to improve security and reduce cost of laptops provided to contractors, the need to on-board new employees in mergers/acquisitions, the need to support legacy applications during a Windows 7/8 migration. Each of these business drivers can be addressed via some form of desktop virtualization. But which one?…

    Since 2006, the business drivers and the technologies available for desktop virtualization have expanded. IT now is faced with an explosion of non-Windows tablets, the desire to improve security and reduce cost of laptops provided to contractors, the need to on-board new employees in mergers/acquisitions, the need to support legacy applications during a Windows 7/8 migration. Each of these business drivers can be addressed via some form of desktop virtualization. But which one? Session/Presentation Virtualization? Full VDI? Client-side virtual desktops? Application Virtualization? Or is a well-managed laptop still the best choice for some business roles? This whitepaper looks at the pros and cons of each of the desktop virtualization technologies to help IT leaders plan their Desktop Virtualization Road map.
