Recently, friends around me are always complaining that all kinds of computers used by their company are not smooth and awkward, either the USB disk can not be recognized or the software stutter. Later, I found out that in order to improve the efficiency of content management and reduce operating costs, the company replaced the computers that were originally rented for each employee into a unified cloud desktop. Friends do 3D design, and it is smooth to use office. But once the 3D software is enabled, it will be miserable, and the original half-hour work can take more than half a day.

The enterprise cloud desktop office solution meets the work desktop management needs of all employees, and reduces the total cost of ownership under the needs of ensuring the security of enterprise data and information and simplifying IT operation and maintenance. Although the cloud desktop has changed the way employees use the traditional desktop in practical applications, it has taken back part of the control over the desktop, resulting in a lot of resistance and dissatisfaction among employees, so, whether the cloud desktop is successfully deployed in enterprise applications, whether it can provide employees with a good use experience, and smoothly migrate from the original traditional desktop to the cloud desktop It depends on whether the desktop cloud behind the cloud desktop is properly deployed.

Enterprise Desktop Cloud deployed with JITStack Cloud Management platform

When the concept of desktop cloud was first proposed, many desktop cloud service providers wanted to use the same deployment solution to solve the pain points of different customers, although they could achieve the rapid delivery of desktops and the rapid launch of cloud desktops. However, due to the lack of specific analysis of enterprise application business at the initial stage of deployment, most of the delivery results are failed or reluctantly used. At this point, the dispute over the merits and wrongs of cloud desktops begins. Some people (users) believe that the efficiency of replacing traditional desktops with cloud desktops not only does not improve, but affects the pace of normal work. Others (administrators) believe that cloud desktops help them manage enterprise resources, data management and cost control more effectively.

Desktop cloud that fits the enterprise busin

The basic office scene of an enterprise is the daily OA office and the centralized management of enterprise business data. at this stage, the deployment of desktop cloud can use the standard scheme of cloud desktop, establish a lightweight private cloud environment within the enterprise, virtualize all physical resources through JITStack cloud management platform, establish a unified virtual resource pool, and use distributed storage technology to improve data IO transmission speed and redundancy. Cloud desktops have preset templates in the cloud management platform for quick release. With the continuous expansion of the enterprise scale, the rapid growth of the original business and the emergence of new business, various business departments, professional posts, outsourced services and other component architectures have emerged within the enterprise. the differences of these architectures are not only different requirements for computing resources, but also different requirements for applications and peripherals. Although there are a variety of types of work in each organization, and different functions require different requirements for cloud desktop use, they can be divided into the following types from the perspective of organizational functions and cloud desktop resource requirements:

Senior management and development users

High-level users usually have two types: one is that they need to have complete control over the desktop, and they can customize their own cloud desktop environment according to their own needs, install, change, delete applications, develop peripheral ports, and so on. Second, due to the needs of work, users who need to use computing-intensive or graphics-intensive applications, and have specific requirements for cloud desktop systems. The former includes the senior management of the company, while the latter is generally a developer or graphics professional.

Application-oriented user

Application-oriented users need to operate a series of applications to complete the task in their daily work. The types of users include financial personnel, managers, ERP managers, HR, management and so on. They need a stable and secure cloud desktop to host many applications on the system. ERP system, financial system, tax control system, enterprise mailbox management and so on, need more memory to support.

Fixed user

The work that this type of user usually needs to do is fixed and has a clear task. The desktop applications involved are also relatively few, usually using basic office software plus 1-2 professional applications, so they only need a small number of application operating systems. For example, call center agents, telemarketers, administrative copywriters, etc.

Mobile user

Mobile users need a desktop system that can be used at any time, no matter when, where, or when the terminal can access the cloud desktop. When accessing the corporate network, they must be subject to the unified supervision of the company IT. Such users, represented by sales, need to travel frequently or work remotely, even in an environment without a network, and can still update their cloud desktops synchronously when they return to the company.

Deployment scenario for JITStack Desktop Cloud

Corresponding to the user type, for each user scenario, although the end user says that what they see is a unified cloud desktop interface, the desktop cloud deployment solution confirms a variety of combinations, not only taking into account the implementation of current business requirements, but also planning the possibility of future expansion.

Stand-alone cloud desktop

The desktops assigned to each employee correspond to each other one by one. Their cloud desktops are connected to servers in the same resource pool, and all workloads are running on the server. Dozens of desktops can be allocated on one server to be used at the same time, saving a lot of construction costs at the initial stage of the enterprise.

Shared cloud desktop

By sharing desktops, users can access cloud desktops in the same server, which has a great advantage in terms of hardware and software authorization, but users cannot change application settings and lack the possibility of desktop autonomy and customization.

Image cloud desktop

Graphics cloud desktop is a customized desktop developed for professional working users of video and graphics. It uses GPU cut-through technology in the server to completely entrust the processing performance of GPU to cloud desktops, so as to solve the work needs of professional users and the customized allocation of cloud desktop resources.

How to deploy a desktop cloud solution that suits you

Through the introduction of user types and cloud desktops, we understand that the previous single desktop cloud deployment solution can no longer meet the needs of enterprise business. When deploying, we need to consider many factors, such as: what is the type of users within the enterprise, what is the original IT infrastructure in the enterprise, and what is the update cycle of the enterprise desktop now? Whether it is possible to reuse the newly updated desktop as a thin client, the price of each deployment model, and so on. From the above factors, we can get a preliminary deployment plan, which may include one or more deployment models, and then we conduct small-scale tests on the deployment model, and then further adjust the deployment plan to get the best solution for our enterprise.
