Cloud Desktop Overview
(
NOTE:
the terms
Cloud Desktop
and
zero client
are used
interchangeably in this document.)
A
Cloud Desktop
, or zero client, is a remote computing
device that connects a user’s monitors, keyboard, mouse,
speakers, and other peripherals to remote ClearCube Blade
PCs (computers) and to virtual desktops (VMs). As shown
below, computing resources are typically located in remote
data centers. Cloud Desktops enable users to work on a blade
or VM as if it is a local PC. The connection between the zero
client and the remote device is over PCoIP
®
protocol. Inside
the remote device, a host card manages the PCoIP session.
