In that case, all you have to do is test these applications under Windows Server and you are done. Even if you need VDI because you run a non-Windows OS on your devices, you probably only have a few Windows applications that you want to run on your virtual desktops. In most scenarios, VDI is only used to provision a few important applications centrally for branch offices, partners, or customers. Only if you are really such a daredevil and intend to replace all your physical desktops with virtual desktops could this be a plus. In my view, this advantage of running a Windows client version instead of the server edition is not really that big. If I understand Brian correctly, this is the reason why he thinks that VMware “beat” Amazon. The list of guest operating systems is impressive in particular, the fact that you can also run a real Windows client, and not just a Windows Server, with the Desktop Experience is an advantage. However, considering that Amazon is using the same protocol, it is quite possible that Amazon will soon also support smartphones and HTML5 devices. Horizon DaaS supports more clients than Amazon WorkSpaces supports. Admins can use a single client to manage Horizon Workspace and Horizon DaaS VMs.įor more technical details, have a look at VMware Horizon DaaS FAQ (PDF).
