The Foundations of The Virtual Desktop and Value Propositions by ...

A gauge of your skill as a writer, especially a technical writer, is how effectively you deliver your message to readers, and how easy it is for them to receive, understand, and implement it into their technological endeavors. Through a series of clearly-defined concepts, illustrated diagrams, and a series of comparative examples, Michael Fox?s DeMystifying the Virtual Desktop educates readers on the subject of the virtual desktop and presents them with a text that serves as a foundation for their future desktop virtualization endeavors. Fox?s practical advice and substantial general knowledge helps readers-like a tech-based audience with varied skill-sets-connect with the book and feel empowered to learn more about the virtual desktop and its implications in the Information Technologies industry-and cyberspace as a whole.

In the real world, Michael Fox describes the cycle of problems and solutions of the virtual desktop environment. More specifically, he states, ?It is a place where people, government, competition, leadership, relationships, innovation and the market all combine to create both the problems and the solutions that solve them.? Ideally, the entire implementation process, from desktop assessment to design and design analysis would be a flawless process; however, this is rarely the case.

A typical occurrence in the corporate setting is the conflict of desires, and different personal agendas. From having to adjust to potentially less-desirable technology implemented by IT leaders preceding you to technical and management groups who are ?insensitive and simply lack the desire or ability to assist the project in the necessary way.? The corporate agenda will range from administration efficiency-of technology-to outsourcing and security changes that can result from desktop virtualization. In a nutshell, communication is imperative, yet is an imposing challenge because not all staff will believe in or understand desktop virtualization.

. Fox alludes to the example of a luxury car having not only the basic features (e.g. speedometer), regulatory features (air bags, exhaust), but also having luxury accessories such as GPS systems. Essentially, the virtual desktop requires components from each category for it to run smoothly.

Ultimately, DeMystifying the Virtual Desktop steers readers toward the value proposition of desktop virtualization rather than its effects. Because this is a foundation-building book, Fox illustrates the value proposition through the following examples:

1) Business Continuity- ?Virtual desktops have the ability to improve business continuity and disaster recovery.?

2) Outsourcing- ?With a few changes to IT operations, virtual desktops can enhance and enable all kinds of outsourcing relationships.?

3)Security- ?Virtual desktops offer significant improvements to security , specifically by enabling more secure access to, and management of, the desktop, the applications and user data.?

4)Employee Productivity- ?With a reliable virtual desktop system, there can be quantifiable gains in employee productivity.?

These are the foundational benefits of the virtual desktop, and are predicated on reliability and effective communication.
