Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

VDI stands for Virtual Desktop Infrastructure. It allows user desktops to be hosted on a centralised infrastructure, which can then be accessed remotely from various terminals. VDI facilitates the centralisation of environments, data security, user mobility, and the administration of workstations.

RDS refers to a method of remote access to desktops, sessions, or applications hosted on a centralised infrastructure. RDS can be used alongside a VDI strategy.

VDI refers to the principle of hosting workstations centrally to provide them remotely to users. RDS refers to a logic of remote access to desktops or applications. UDS Enterprise, on the other hand, is the platform that allows for the centralisation, orchestration, and security of access to these resources. In other words, VDI and RDS describe uses or architectures, while UDS Enterprise is the solution that enables the unification of access, resource, and connection management within a single interface. 

In a UDS Enterprise, the user accesses their resources remotely through a secure web interface. The administrator publishes applications, virtual desktops, or other services, and then the user logs into their portal with their credentials to launch the authorised resources. UDS specifically highlights access via a web browser, from virtually any operating system, making it a suitable solution for delivering remote applications and desktops through a web page.​
