ServerDirect's solutions for working remotely using VDI (Virtual Desktop Infrastructure) are not only necessary in these times but also have a couple of benefits which we explain below.
What is VDI?
Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) refers to the use of virtual machines to provide and manage virtual desktops. VDI hosts desktop environments on a centralized server and deploys them to end-users on request.
In VDI, a hypervisor segments servers into virtual machines that in turn host virtual desktops, which users access remotely from their devices. Users can access these virtual desktops from any device or location, and all processing is done on the host server. Users connect to their desktop instances through a connection broker, which is a software-based gateway that acts as an intermediary between the user and the server.

VDI benefits
Centralized management
VDI’s centralized format allows IT to easily patch, update or configure all the virtual desktops in a system.
Local performance across the network. Predictable application performance. Smart insights in utilization.
Cost savings
Since processing is done on the server, the hardware requirements for end devices are much lower.
Maximize the utilization of your flash media. Reduce your capacity overhead. Easily manage & monitor.
Security
In a VDI environment, data lives on the server rather than the end client device.
What is the difference between VDI and desktop virtualization?
Desktop virtualization is a generic term for any technology that separates a desktop environment from the hardware used to access it. VDI is a type of desktop virtualization, but desktop virtualization can also be implemented in different ways, such as remote desktop services (RDS), where users connect to a shared desktop that runs on a remote server.
What is the difference between VDI and virtual machines (VMs)?
Virtual machines are the technology that powers VDI. VMs are software “machines” created by partitioning a physical server into multiple virtual servers through the use of a hypervisor. (This process is also known as server virtualization.) Virtual machines can be used for a number of applications, one of which is running a virtual desktop in a VDI environment.
