Vietnamese With the rise of distributed computing and the personal desktop, enterprise IT underwent a radical change; from a centralized model over which the business maintained tight control, to a ubiquitous computing model that enabled individuals to have much greater freedom and flexibility in a truly “personal” experience. Today, with the rise of global Internet connectivity, the consumerization of IT and the desire for a self-service environment, IT organizations are faced with an ever expanding list of worker preferences and devices, increasingly owned by the individual – from PCs to smartphones to netbooks – for which they must securely deliver corporate data on demand. These widely distributed network of desktops and the proliferation of user devices often means significant burdens of both administration and cost, and a fear of a rapid and alarming acceleration of security threats. Many are finding new answers to these challenges in the emerging and dynamic field of desktop virtualization.
With the right approach to virtualization, organizations continue to achieve greater levels of business agility and productivity by making enterprise data available to workers when and where they need it while simultaneously ensuring that corporate data is protected. Virtualization solutions help IT organizations reduce complexity and lower cost of infrastructure and operations, provide stronger protection for intellectual property and data privacy, ensure easier fulfillment of compliance requirements, and achieve improvements in scalability, performance and utilization of associated networks, systems and facilities. Businesses can now take advantage of virtual computing to deliver information resources on demand to any device, including those provided by employees or other personnel themselves. These capabilities support business initiatives such as facilitating branch office expansion, shrinking the time to value for mergers and acquisitions, attracting, on-boarding, re-assigning and retaining workers, reducing facility costs and ensuring workforce continuity.
Managing these requirements, however, can quickly spread available resources very thin. In this paper, ENTERPRISE MANAGEMENT ASSOCIATES® (EMA™) analysts examine how desktop
virtualization delivers these values in light of the Citrix product portfolio. Long a pioneer in this field, Citrix continues to be a visionary force in desktop virtualization. Today, Citrix offers virtualization technologies that enable businesses to quickly and securely provide applications and desktops to workers anywhere, using any device, with granular access controls that help to maintain tight, centralized control over the user and distribution of sensitive data. Business and technology professionals will learn how desktop virtualization with Citrix has become a strongly competitive answer to costly and resource-intensive legacy approaches to desktop computing, and a solution to many of the most burdensome business and IT challenges of distributed desktop and application management.
