VMware
Many businesses deploy VMware View to simplify desktop and application management, and ultimately increase control and security for their IT staff. VMware View is the only end-to-end solution that simplifies IT management, increases security and control of end users, while decreasing cost by centrally delivering desktop services from the cloud. Additionally, VMware View increases flexibility by allowing users to connect to their View Desktop from a variety of devices including desktops, thin or zero clients, and mobile devices.
When using a View Desktop, a virtual machine hosted on ESX, the user's programs are installed and executed within the virtual machine, and their data is secured in the data center. Users access their View Desktop through a VMware View Connection Server from a lightweight client device on the desktop that may have no operating system at all (a zero-client) or a reduced version of a standard operating system (thin clients). Users may also use a VMware View Client on their older desktop PCs to access their View Desktop and run applications that they used previously on physical desktops.
