Virtual Desktop Infrastructure - Considerations and Best Practices

VDI allows an administrator to create a desktop virtual machine and then host it by running it on a server in the data center. More and more applications are being ported to a server-based hosted application, and VDI is extending that paradigm to desktops.
While the benefits of VDI are well understood and the technology is gaining popularity in many enterprises, few understand the evolving technology in depth. Executives and project managers are often unsure about what considerations need to be taken into account before starting a VDI program. There is also a knowledge gap with regards to best practices in implementing and maintaining VDI environments.
This presentation will provide an insight into these aspects of VDI. With extensive experience in VDI product development and implementation, we have put together this information to help you during your planning process. This session will also tell you what to expect during the first few phases of deployment.
