Virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) has been around for
years, but the high cost of deployment and issues of scale and performance have
traditionally kept most small and mid-size enterprises from adopting the
technology. But, the recent boom in mobile technology – along with dramatic
improvements in VDI – has changed the landscape a bit. With BYOD becoming more prevalent, some are pushing VDI as a solution to access their work
“computer” from any device and any location.
VDI has become a popular platform among IT teams trying to
better centralize and manage this new diversity of devices, but will employees really
use it or will they hop onto the next big thing as soon as it’s available? Is
VDI technology a final solution or just a means to the end for workers wanting
to achieve a more seamless and productive experience?
