Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) software enables the provisioning and management of virtual desktops that are hosted either on-premises or in the cloud. These virtual desktops operate on virtual machines located on servers within a data center, rather than on traditional desktop hardware. VDI software facilitates the running and management of operating systems from the data center and supports remote hosting of desktops. A "virtual image" of the user's desktop is transmitted over the network, allowing users to access their desktop environment as if it were local. After logging in, users can continue their work and run applications just like they would on a physical desktop. Businesses utilize VDI software to maximize existing computer resources without incurring additional costs, update enterprise software tools, and enable employees to access desktop images from their own devices or company-provided devices, all while ensuring data security. VDI solutions are often essential components of Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) offerings, where host servers provide virtual tools, primarily for desktop infrastructures. Additionally, VDI tools can integrate with or launch any other necessary business software required by teams or organizations, enhancing flexibility and productivity.
