Horizon is a solution produced by VMware for deploying virtual desktop infrastructure. What Is VMware Horizon and When Can It Be Used?

A company wishes to simplify software updates (updating on virtual desktops is much easier).

A company wishes to avoid the issues associated with using different hardware for physical desktops – for example, finding or installing different drivers.

A company doesn’t want to buy new workstations, and would prefer to buy only new servers.

A company wants employees to work remotely from home (this can eliminate or reduce office rental fees).Users require access to their desktops during business trips from different locations and devices.There are some use cases for which virtual desktop infrastructure is especially handy: VDI can be used as an alternative to traditional infrastructure (where real physical desktops are used). Hence, managed service providers ( MSPs), like USDC Technology can provide DaaS (Desktop as a Service). VDI can be deployed in a private or public cloud and considered as a type of IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service). Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) is a technology that allows users to host a desktop operating system (OS) on servers as well as access VM-based desktops by users remotely from different devices and locations. In this blog post, USDC Technology will explore virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI), use cases of VDI, and what VMware Horizon is. Using virtualized desktops may be also a good idea in certain cases. Virtualized servers that are run on virtual machines (VMs) are widely used by companies in production environments due to their advantages such as scalability and cost-efficiency. Virtualization and cloud-based services are rapidly becoming more popular.
