Desktop virtualization is a software-based technology that allows users to create a virtualized desktop environment on office premises or remote servers.
Desktops or applications can be virtualized in two ways, either from an office premise server or from the cloud, where managed service providers(MSPs) builds virtual desktops and store data at their data centers.
Understand in detail in this presentation about various desktop virtualization techniques such as VDI, DaaS, and RDS.
2. Desktop virtualization is a software-based
technology that enables the creation of a
virtualized desktop environment on on-
premise or remote servers.
Virtualization eliminates the use of bulky
physical desktops in the local premises,
resulting in reduced IT hassles and expenses.

3. What are the types of virtualization
deployment models?
Virtual Desktop Infrastructure
(VDI)
Desktop As A Service
(DaaS)
Remote Desktop Service
(RDS)
4. Virtual Desktop
Infrastructure
(VDI)
VDI is a technology that creates a virtualized
environment by segmenting the servers into different
virtual machines (VMs).
These VMs act as virtual desktop instances with a
dedicated set of applications and a client operating
system. The users can access these desktops on their
personal devices.
5. Desktop As A
Service
(DaaS)
DaaS is an offering in the VDI space offered by
third-party providers where the virtual desktops
are created on the cloud servers.
DaaS services by providers help you reduce the
on-premise infra and cost. Providers also handle
all installation and updating of virtual desktops.
6. Remote Desktop
Service
(RDS)
Unlike VDI, where each user gets a dedicated
virtual machine running an OS, in RDS, users
work on desktop sessions on a shared virtual
machine.
It means that in RDS, the users are not isolated,
and multiple users working on a shared VM also
decreases the hardware or infra utilization.

8. Enhanced
Productivity
With virtualization, employees get the most
flexibility in terms of location and time.
Employees can have device portability and can
easily access virtual desktops from multiple devices
like laptops, phones, or tablets.
As they can have a healthy work-life balance, they
deliver better results.
9. Central IT
Management
Virtualization models help businesses manage and
control a vast workforce from a central IT infra.
It provides centralized desktops, which means you
get the same interface on any device you use.
All the upgrading and updating could be done on the
central servers without hampering the end- user's
time.
10. Robust
Security
Opting for VDI or RDS, you get a centralized storage
space for the data, and the admin can control the
desktops from a central server.
If you opt for Desktop as a Service, the provider offers
virtual desktops created in high-security data centers
under 24x7 surveillance.
Data is stored under multiple safeguards like OS
hardening, end-to-end data encryption, and firewalls.
11. Cost
Reduction
In VDI or RDS, scalability and optimum desktop
optimization save considerable costs as no desktop is left
idle if not in use.
Moreover, with the pay-as-you-go model from the DaaS
providers, you don't need upfront capital for servers.
Fewer hardware devices and desktops running on your
office premises will help you cut your office power expense.
