Desktop virtualization offers significant benefits in terms of PC security and manageability — but cost, complexity and other drawbacks often stand in the way.
Did you know that desktop virtualization doesn’t have to be expensive and complex? It’s a myth that desktop virtualization requires big data centers, expensive servers, new thin clients, and persistent connectivity. While this is true of server-hosted VDI, there’s a simpler approach to desktop virtualization that is proven to deliver better performance at less than 1/10th the cost.
Intelligent Desktop Virtualization (IDV), a phrase coined by Intel®, describes a different approach to desktop virtualization. Where VDI centralizes both management and execution of virtual desktops, IDV maintains the benefits of centralized management while securely leveraging the compute power of endpoint devices to deliver better performance, mobility, and cost of ownership while reducing complexity.
