What is a Virtual Desktop?Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) and Remote Desktop Services session-based desktops are the key technologies that enable virtual desktops, whereby a desktop that runs in the data center can be delivered to the end-user’s device using Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP). When combined with technologies that enable application and user state virtualization, organizations can achieve a high degree of desktop optimization and security and reduced TCO.
Desktops, Applications, User Data
VDI and session-based desktops are just another deployment model for Windows

Desktop Virtualization Components
![Page 12: Joey Snow | Senior Technical Evangelist Corey Hynes | Lead Technical Architect](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022050714/56649de95503460f94ae3d84/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Desktop Virtualization Components• Four components to desktop
virtualization• User state• Application• User session• Desktop hardware
• All four are not required• There are no dependencies• Can be implemented in any order• Each has discrete benefits
![Page 13: Joey Snow | Senior Technical Evangelist Corey Hynes | Lead Technical Architect](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022050714/56649de95503460f94ae3d84/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
User State Virtualization
• Reduces footprint of desktop VMs• Reduces disk IO• Reduces storage• Reduces disk size
• Enables shared desktops• Replaceable PC scenario
• Facilitates protection of user files
![Page 14: Joey Snow | Senior Technical Evangelist Corey Hynes | Lead Technical Architect](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022050714/56649de95503460f94ae3d84/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Application Virtualization
• Simplifies delivery of apps, and allows any user to run any app, regardless of version
• One install for both hosted and local deliveries
• Optimizes storage• Decision point: locally run or hosted
![Page 15: Joey Snow | Senior Technical Evangelist Corey Hynes | Lead Technical Architect](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022050714/56649de95503460f94ae3d84/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Desktop Virtualization
• Provides data center-hosted virtual machine as a desktop for user
• Support for both private/personal (one VM image per user) and pooled/shared desktops
![Page 16: Joey Snow | Senior Technical Evangelist Corey Hynes | Lead Technical Architect](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022050714/56649de95503460f94ae3d84/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Session Virtualization
• Not every virtual desktop is or needs to be a virtual machine
• Shared session servers (formerly known as terminal servers) can replace most shared/pooled desktop scenarios
![Page 17: Joey Snow | Senior Technical Evangelist Corey Hynes | Lead Technical Architect](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022050714/56649de95503460f94ae3d84/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

Pooled (Shared) vs. Personal (Private) Collection
Pooled collection Personal collectionSingle, shared master virtual machine Separate virtual machine instance for
each user
OS-level changes discarded at logoff (user profile changes can persist in the user VHD)
Changes retained after logoff
One image to manage Coordinated with Windows Software Updates Services and Configuration Manager to avoid patch storms through excessive disk I/O
Reduced requirements Users can install applications and be administrators on their own VM
Lower deployment cost
Supports user profile disk to persist user changes

The Benefits of Desktop VirtualizationCentralized Management Anywhere Access for
Connected Devices
Increased Business ContinuityEnhance Security and
Compliance
• Manage physical and virtual desktops from a single console• Centralized desktop lifecycle
management
• Access desktops from any connected device• Enable rich desktop experiences
on thin clients and older PCs
• Data always locked in the data center• Improved compliance through
centralization
• Data center grade business continuity for the desktop• Quicker resolution of desktop failures

Scenarios for VDI
Provide a Managed Desktop to Unmanaged Devices• Contract workers• Employee-owned PCs and secondary devices.
Desktops that Demand High Levels of Security and Compliance
• Non-mobile desktops in specific industries (i.e. financial services / healthcare / government)
Centralizing Desktop Management for Remote Locations
• Branch offices• Offshore locationsTask Worker Scenarios• Call center workers• Shared terminals, such as factory kiosk / nursing stations
