1.1 Introduction
Desktop virtualization provides a new perspective to reconsider the design and implementation of an IT
infrastructure. In a desktop virtualization infrastructure, a station is no longer a cumbersome desktop, but simply an
endpoint device for users to access delivery services from the server(s).
With the introduction of the desktop virtualization technologies, you can considerably benefit from:
• On-demand access to applications / desktops
• Centralized management of work environments
• Drastically reduced endpoint software / hardware issues
• Simplified system maintenance
• Improved system security
• More scalability with low-cost endpoint devices
