Virtualization

Virtualization

1. Application virtualization

   • Technology that allows users to access and use an application from a seperate computer than the one which the app is installed
     • Cost effective solution
     • Fully isolates the application from the underlying OS
     • Lesser level of flexibility in comparision
     • Desktop experience differs from application to application

2. Desktop Virtualization

   • Technology tha lets users simulate a wokstation load to access a desktop from a connected device remotely or locally
     • Cost can be a concern depending on the usecase
     • Applications are still into the underlying os
     • Offers greater flexibility to virtual infrastructure
     • Consistent desktop experience
