Virtualization: The Evolution of the Desktop
Primary Drivers: Reduce Costs Stay Compliant Increase Flexibility
“In a growing number of organizations, traditional PC software distribution approaches are no longer sufficient to address all user requirements. A combination of streaming and operating-system- (OS-) toapplication virtualization often can fill those deficiencies, improve the user's experience, and may improve the efficiency of application packaging and testing for IT.”
