Digital Desktops -- Virtualization Meets Changing Needs of Increasingly Remote Workers

Desktop virtualization is the process by which Windows desktop components, including user profiles, policies, applications and user-authored data, are "decoupled" from the endpoint device.  Instead these components are containerized and saved to central storage and only served back to the device as the user requires them.  The endpoint device itself is inherently "empty" or "thin," needing only a Windows OS and a virtualization client to launch the workspace so it can be utilized through the device.

This approach has many advantages including:

• Security: if the device is lost or broken,  user profile data, applications and company IP / user-authored data is still safe in storage, and users can usually pick up a session, uninterrupted,  on a new device.

• Portability: if the original device is compromised, the virtual workspace remains intact and can easily be launched on another device.  Disaster recovery strategies can more easily be enacted.

• Management: because desktop components are centralized in storage, updates and maintenance can happen more easily and consistently.
