Benefits of Client-side Virtualization
A Flexible, New Solution for Improving Manageability, Security, TCO, and User Experience
A Great Value for IT and Improved Productivity for Employees
As new enabling technologies emerge for client compute delivery, IT departments in the financial industry are being challenged to determine the optimal enterprise client computing strategy—deciding which combination of client platforms and service delivery models will best meet the needs of employees and the IT organization, now and into the future.
Adoption of virtualization for client computing is increasing because it has many compelling benefits. New client-side virtualization solutions running on 2nd generation Intel® Core™ i5 vPro™ and Core™ i7 vPro™ processors promise to meet the needs of both IT administrators and users. These solutions give IT an efficient, cost effective, and secure way to centrally manage client devices; they also deliver local performance and compute capabilities that enable employees to work with complex financial models and graphics-intensive applications—whether they are online or offline.
Client Computing Virtualization Models
For all client computing virtualization models, the elements of computing (applications and OS) are abstracted and separated from each other and from the underlying hardware; this helps make the corporate workspace and data more accessible and portable. The main difference between these approaches lies in where the virtualization occurs, either centralized in the data center or distributed to the endpoints. While virtualization promises a higher degree of control over application management and data, and potentially can lower IT costs, which model is the best option for both users and IT departments?
