Overall Satisfaction with Oracle Virtual Desktop Infrastructure

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.
From the end user's perspective the usability is not impacted at all.
For large and mid-sized organizations utilizing massive virtual desktop deployments, Oracle VDI offers great value. It supports a wide range of operating systems like Linux, Solaris, Windows etc.

Oracle Virtual Desktop Infrastructure Reliability

Oracle VDI does an amazing job in reducing the complexity of managing multiple virtual desktop environments. However, it does impact the speed and performance in comparison to standalone machine access. We do not have precise metrics to compare performance but it is noticeable.

Integrating Oracle Virtual Desktop Infrastructure

Oracle VDI offers easy integration with many enterprise tools and applications like Oracle Fusion Middleware and Oracle Database. t also supports most commonly used Operating system environments.
