Desktop Virtualization

revolution

Some familiar history…

Early PC’s allowed access to applications with a flexibility and agility never experienced

Reduced cost of PC’s allowed adoption and innovation in all sizes of enterprise.

These same reasons will see the rise of the PC virtualization revolution

The Corporate Digital Divide

Knowledge Workers

IT Desktop Systems

IT admin today faces tradeoff between end user flexibility and control

Let users choose own hardware, OS, applications increase productivity but is a management and compliance nightmare

Greater need for governance of IT systems

Increased emphases from the business to lower operational spending

Today's generation of IT consumers are digital natives

They often are adept at system use and are most productive in flexible computing environment

Greater demand on computing device choice

Demand on flexibility of work location

Use of personal applications and data

The gap is growing
