FAQ

What is VDI?

A VDI stands for Virtual Desktop Infrastructure and is a type of desktop virtualization technology capable of distributing a virtualized desktop environment from a remote server to the user’s endpoint devices over the network. In other words, VDI hosts Virtual Machines (VMs) running virtualized desktop environments from a centralized infrastructure (i.e., a data center) and deploys these VMs to end-users over the internet. By running Virtual Machines (VMs) to provide and manage virtual desktops, VDI allows organizations or end-users to access virtualized applications and services from anywhere, anytime, and from any devices, including affordable thin clients and mobile devices.

How does a VDI work?

To understand how VDI works, there are 3 main data center components of a VDI architecture you must know.

  • Virtualization: the creation of a virtual desktop, operating system (OS), storage, server, or application(s) that behaves just like its physical counterpart.
  • Hypervisor: also known as Virtual Machine Monitor, hypervisor is a thin layer of software that divides a physical system (i.e., a desktop computer) into many different virtual environments, known as Virtual Machines (VMs.) Simply put, a hypervisor allows one host computer to virtually share its resources to support multiple guest VMs.
  • Connection broker: is a software solution acting as a resource manager and is responsible for managing a pool of connections. In the case of a VDI solution, the connection broker is responsible for finding a virtual desktop resource within the available resource pool and distributing it to end clients.

These three components work together, allowing end-users to connect to a remote virtual desktop through any device or location. V2 Cloud’s BYOD (Bring Your Own Devices) model of VDI solution allows users to remotely access their work desktops without being in the office while ensuring data security and integrity.

Is V2 Cloud’s VDI a good solution for my business?

V2 Cloud offers a secure and reliable VDI software, ideal for facilitating your remote workers to work from home or other locations. Below are some of the most important benefits of virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) system provided by V2 Cloud:

  • Cost savings. V2 Cloud’s VDI solution can help your business save more money in the long run by eliminating physical hardware resources. You can reduce or totally eliminate costs otherwise associated with investments in physical hardware and large areas of space required for storing and installing these physical resources.
  • Scalability and accessibility. Utilizing a VDI provider allows your business to have a scalable infrastructure that you can upscale or downscale as you see fit (i.e., when you hire or fire a new remote employee.) V2 Cloud’s VDI solution applies the BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) model, which allows end-users to use their own devices, even affordable thin clients, to access applications, files, or cloud services from any location with a fast and reliable cloud experience.
  • Advanced data security: V2 Cloud’s VDI software offers high-end data security features by storing users’ data in a secure cloud environment. Users can access their data anytime and from anywhere, even when they don’t have access to their end devices. V2 Cloud’s VDI solutions also include backup and recovery services, performing an automatic full backup of the user’s virtual machine each day. There are also other security features offered by V2 Cloud, including but not limited to UFW firewalls for every virtual machine, encrypted connection, and antivirus real-time protection.
Is VDI the same as RDS?

Virtual Desktop Infrastructure(VDI) and Remote Desktop Services(RDS) provide very similar functionality. However, they are not exactly the same.

Remote Desktop Services (RDS) is a Microsoft technology that allows users to access their desktop environment and applications from any device or location. With RDS, you can use your laptop, phone, or tablet to work on your desktop computer’s applications and files as if sitting in front of the machine itself. Being a Microsoft solution, RDS is limited only to Windows Server.

Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) is a type of desktop virtualization that allows users to remotely access their desktops and applications. VDI provides a user with a “virtual desktop” hosted on a remote server. The user can access their virtual desktop from any device with an internet connection, making it an ideal solution for users who need to access their desktops from multiple locations. Unlike RDS, VDI system is not limited to windows or single application infrastructure.

Another key difference between the two is that in RDS, users access a single virtual desktop (shared) that is not personalized, while in VDI solution, each user receives their own virtual desktop. Meaning, RDS is more suitable for businesses in which multiple users need to access the same application or applications every day.

RDS is simpler and easier to implement and is also more affordable. VDI, on the other hand, is more versatile, and you’ll get more freedom in personalization despite its higher costs.  At V2 Cloud, we provide secure, cost-effective, and high-quality VDI cloud services for small businesses.

What is the difference between VDI and VM?

A virtual machine (VM) is the virtualization of a computer system, enabling end-users to run a virtualized instance of a computer that can perform the same functions as a physical computer (run applications, etc.) within another OS.

VMs are created by a thin layer of software called a hypervisor, which is responsible for dividing a physical computer into many different Virtual Machines (VMs) and relocating resources from the physical hardware to virtual machines. 

A VDI server runs VMs to provide and manage virtual desktops, allowing end-users to access their virtual desktops and virtualized applications remotely.

To summarize, VM powers VDI.

How do I access VDI on my laptop?

Setting up and accessing virtual desktop infrastructure(VDI) is easy. Here are the following steps:

1- Assessment. The first step to setting up a hosted cloud VDI is understanding what you need or what is the scope of your project. V2 Cloud as one of the best VDI providers offers tailored plans based on the number of users, computing resources, and security level.

2- Setting up. Once you have determined appropriate resources for your need, you can use our V2 Cloud VDI solution and follow its instructions to set up your VDI within 20 minutes. You can easily find the configuration setting from the “manage computer” interface, and you can configure your VDI system such as adding users/applications, upgrading plans, setting storage, etc. Now, your VDI is ready to use.

3- Installing applications. You can install the application on any device or platform as needed. Your team will have access to everything you set up when they access their VDI. 

4- Run your VDI. You can log into V2 Cloud’s VDI software through a browser or desktop and manage everything via an intuitive management console. If you have more questions or problems about setting up or accessing virtual desktop infrastructure, please contact our support team.
