Virtual Desktop Infrastructure: Enabling a Cost-Effective and Flexible Workforce

As IT administrators and chief information officers, you face a particular challenge: facilitate the ability for your agency to work remotely, while reducing costs, protecting your data and assuring compliance. Your employees need flexibility in the way they work, as well as the ability to connect to resources anywhere, anytime.

Thanks to advances in technology, today you have an unprecedented opportunity to change the way your agency operates. IT leaders are exploring the potential of Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) to reduce costs and simplify desktop management. VDI provides remote access to desktops, data and applications hosted in the data center, enabling users to work from different devices, from a computer, tablet or even smartphone. This means that you can access information and applications from any location. VDI also gives IT administrators the power to centralize desktop management and more efficiently adapt to workforce changes like mobility, telework and bring-your-own-device (BYOD).

Prior to advances in virtualization technologies, IT administrators could not meet the flexibility that your work requires. But today, by taking data and applications off your devices and hosting them in a data center, your agency’s IT department can now provide a flexible and secure work environment, and reduce both capital and operational expenditures.
