Emerging technologies are disrupting old paradigms and
unleashing new opportunities. Oracle has embedded innovative technologies in
every aspect of our cloud, enabling companies to reimagine their businesses,
processes, and experiences. The world’s #1 database is now autonomous,
allowing enterprises to innovate at the speed of a startup. And Oracle is the leader and steward of Java, the world's #1 programming language and platform. Oracle provides essential elements for companies to pioneer
innovations and drive new business models. For example, applications based on artificial
intelligence (AI) can suggest the next best actions, automate answers, and
provide personalized service. Oracle embeds machine learning into several
management and security offerings to help monitor, troubleshoot, and predict
potential outages and security breaches. We enable automated but personalized
interactions across our applications via digital assistants—and we’ve
integrated AI into analytics to help discover hidden patterns. 

Oracle helps customers develop roadmaps, migrate to the
cloud, and take advantage of emerging technologies from any point: new cloud
deployments, on-premises environments, and hybrid implementations. Oracle’s
approach makes it easy for companies to get started in the cloud and even
easier to expand as business grows. 

Oracle is the #1 provider of business software, with a broad
portfolio of solutions for companies of all sizes.

Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) Software and Solutions

Oracle VDI

While working for Florida State University we purchased the Oracle Virtual Desktop Infrastructure for managing, hosting and providing access to virtual desktop operating systems. These virtual desktop operating systems were hosted in our data center and could be accessed by faculty, staff as well as students to work on specific applications.

Providing desktop operating system virtualization is way more manageable using this Oracle suite.
It has a robust security infrastructure and provides great audit trails.

In our use of Oracle VDI, we have found there is a significant lag time when using the desktop environments through it, rather than the standalone virtual desktops.
Real time reporting and statistics can be improved as well.

Oracle VDI has enabled our users to access the same services from remote locations allowing work from home opportunities.
We have also successfully employed it for handling disaster recovery efforts.

XenDesktop, VMware Horizon (formerly VMware View) and VMware Workstation

Before I started using VMware almost exclusively, I used Oracle VDI. My sole use was in building and maintaining images for Windows hosts. I would build my image on an Oracle virtual machine, and then capture it with FOG or something similar. I loved that I could access it from anywhere on the network, and make changes on the fly.

The user experience is great.
Remote access.
Rile sharing between desktops.

Frequent disconnects causing me to have to reboot my server.
Can be laggy at times.
Freezes regularly.

When I used it full-time it worked for what I needed it - positive.
When it crashed, it costed me in time to wait to get it back up - negative.
Took up less space than using live machines - positive.

VMware ESXi and VMware Horizon (formerly VMware View)

We were using Oracle Virtual Desktop Infrastructure much more heavily last year, but we are now in the process of phasing it out to fully integrate VMWare Horizon to our workflow. Our core software engineering team is using Oracle VDI to manage and access multiple virtualized desktop environments that are running on the same server rack.

Ease of Manageability. Accessing and managing multiple virtualized desktop environments is pretty straightforward.
Great Options for Keeping Track of Logins. Detailed reports of who has been logging into which environment are easy to configure.
File Systems Can Be Shared. You can set multiple desktop environments to be able to share data on the same file system.

Viewing reporting data and similar analytics in real-time is slow and laggy.
Occasional crash and regular freezing of the system. On a daily basis, we face freezing problems when accessing desktop environments, sometimes resulting in a complete crash of the software.
Cannot Maintain a Stable Connection for Extensive Periods of Time. Accessing desktop environments for short term periods works flawlessly most of the time, but when working on one for more than about 3-4 hours, we have frequently experienced connection drops.

Pricing Models were harsh to begin with, so we invested more money on the license than we needed to.
Due to all of the laggy, buggy, and crashing interfaces, our administrators spent considerable additional time working on simple operations.
We missed out on many advanced features that Oracle VDI's competitors were rolling out, so we couldn't benefit from them.
