Managing fleets of personal computers is costly and time intensive. Every update, application install, and maintenance task is a one-to-one exercise. Virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) and desktop as a service (DaaS) offers businesses an alternative to the PC chore by centralizing images and simplifying maintenance through hosted desktops. Desktop as a Service initiative are more secure and compliant, and they gives the business unparalleled flexibility to enable and support highly mobile workforces. In this episode of the Ask Selma podcast, we’ll explore how desktop as a service works for organizations and how Citrix is helping businesses leverage the power of virtual desktops through hosted infrastructure providers such as Microsoft Azure and Amazon Web Services.
