Mobile march changes virtually everything

Challenging times in the desktop virtualisation industry say VDI experts. JJ WORRALL reports
Driving productivity
“The move to mobile is driving the adoption of VDI as virtualisation is a key enabler of flexible work styles”
Trilogy Technologies: John Casey
Businesses need desktop virtualisation solutions that enhance agility and productivity while lowering operating costs and protecting corporate data. There is an increased need to deploy and deliver mission-critical applications and data to mobile platforms as a critical organisational imperative. The adoption of desktop virtualisation and the new virtual workspace transforms traditional desktops and applications into on-demand services available to any user, anywhere, on any device. IT can securely deliver individual applications, web and software-as-a-service (SaaS) applications, or full virtual desktops to PCs, tablets, smart phones, laptops and thin clients – all with a high-definition user experience. Because all desktops are centrally managed, compliance control is much easier to implement and corporate security policies are extended to virtual environments with comprehensive security access control.

With more people working outside the office, allowing users to be more productive by accessing core enterprise applications and data while on the move is an imperative. Hence the move to mobile is driving the adoption of VDI as virtualisation is a key enabler of flexible work styles. Organisations need to develop strategies and select solutions that can support the new user experience and drive unprecedented user productivity, while providing the security and compliance that IT requires in multi-platform environments. By empowering users to become more productive, the organisation is better equipped to respond to changing business conditions and competition.

Trilogy’s experience in infrastructure management and ICT solutions best practice, enables our client organisations to confidently deploy a Desktop Virtualisation strategy. With our experience and knowledge, Trilogy can provide the appropriate technologies so our customers can deploy new capabilities with confidence. Whether it is leading edge ICT solutions, a cloud computing decision or exceptional 24/7 support, you are assured of one thing, Trilogy puts you first.

More than VDI
“IT has the challenge of being able to host and deliver thousands of Windows apps and desktops across any device regardless of where they are needed, without leaving a trace of the user” Citrix: Grace O’Rourke Veitch
Employees come in all manner of shapes and sizes, with a diverse range of skills and weaknesses; and the best managers know how to motivate and support every individual.In most medium to large organisations, there are at least five types of worker, ranging from task workers (who have relatively low-end device demands) through to very mobile workers (who make big demands of their device and access to business information).

There are a number of core virtualisation technologies under the umbrella term “desktop virtualisation” that can support these different types of workers, including published desktops and apps, hosted physical desktops, remote PC access, client-side virtualisation and VDI. For an organisation to succeed with a desktop virtualisation deployment, it needs to select the right desktop virtualisation technologies for its workforce.

Right now, IT has to face the challenge of being able to host and deliver thousands of Windows apps and desktops across any device regardless of where they are needed, without leaving a trace of the user. For this to occur effectively though, we have to recognise that VDI, or complete virtual desktops, are great for certain use cases, but they are just one possible option to enable a mobile, flexible workforce.The bottom line is that desktop virtualisation is about far more than VDI. To manage the balance between user requirements, cost and manageability, you have to have the flexibility to deliver virtual apps and desktops in a different way for each use case, on any device.
   

   

Policy-driven engine
“The design goal for any solution focuses on enabling a good user experience while ensuring a comprehensive security policy is in effect”
Cisco: Brian Jordan, Data Centre Product Sales

The Bring Your Own Device phenomenon has brought significant changes within the workplace and offers many benefits to both users and corporate enterprises. Users benefit by using their own devices from any place at any time thus enabling very extensive mobility while still having access to their corporate applications. Enterprises benefit from simplified centralised management and control of corporate data and applications. Services like single sign on can enable a very transparent user experience.

There are many approaches to delivering applications and content to multiple devices and the design goal for any solution focuses on enabling a good user experience while ensuring a comprehensive security policy is in effect. Desktop Virtualisation solutions deliver a traditional PC environment to any endpoint, from small scale phones and tablets to desktops or laptops. The technologies from Cisco partners like VMware and Citrix, coupled with Cisco Enterprise Mobility solutions offer secure and high-performing connections to in-house computers that run the desktop infrastructure. A small app on the device acts as a relay for presenting the desktop functionality on the client device.The virtualisation solutions are architected to protect the confidentiality of sensitive corporate information. The less data that is held on the client device, the more secure the data will be.

To enable enterprise mobility most IT departments are implementing a combination of virtual desktop solutions and mobile content delivered via “apps” or web browser content. The challenge for these IT departments is to ensure a policy-driven engine is implemented to secure the environment while ensuring the user experience is the same on each and every device.
