Boulder, CO., December 10, 2013 – Enterprise Management Associates (EMA), a leading IT and data management research and consulting firm, today announced it will host a research Webinar entitled “The Evolving Desktop – How to Deliver Windows Desktops and Applications from the Cloud,” featuring EMA Research Director, Steve Brasen, and Desktone Senior Director for desktops as a service (DaaS), David Grant.
Fueled by BYOD initiatives, Windows XP end of life, a growing mobile workforce, and enterprise IT efforts to lower PC support costs, virtual desktops are gaining sizeable momentum with businesses of all sizes. The challenge for many organizations, however, is to find an affordable, secure, and easy to deploy alternative to traditional in-house VDI architectures.
During this Webinar Brasen and Grant will discuss how cloud-based desktop virtualization can be employed to rapidly provision Windows desktops and application to any end user device, at any location, while reducing the cost of delivering hosted applications by 50 percent.
Topics to be discussed include:
- Evolution of cloud hosted desktops
- Desktop virtualization trends and market movement
- Enabling access to Windows apps from any device (tablets, smartphones, laptops, PCs, thin clients)
- Managing multiple desktop models and applications from a single console
- Virtualization for any use case – apps, shared sessions, full desktops, or some of each
