About Desktop Virtualization
Desktop virtualization is a virtualization technology, which separates an individual's PC applications from his or her desktop. Virtualized desktops are usually hosted on a remote central server, rather than the hard drive of the personal computer. Because the client-server computing model is used in virtualizing desktops, desktop virtualization is also known as client virtualization. It provides a way for users to maintain their individual desktops on a single, central server. The users may be connected to the central server through a WAN, LAN or over the Internet. Furthermore, desktop virtualization has many benefits, including a lower total cost of ownership (TCO), reduced energy costs, increased security, reduced downtime and centralized management.
