Hosted desktop is a virtual desktop solution that is popularly made available in two variants. The first variant, also known as Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI), is the practice of hosting a desktop on a centralized, on-premises server. In contrast, the cheaper and more convenient variant, also referred to as Desktop as a Service (DaaS), hosts the virtual desktop on cloud. The distinction is crucial because, with DaaS (or Cloud Hosted Desktop), all storage, hardware and network infrastructure costs are outsourced to a third-party provider resulting in near-zero maintenance costs. Businesses choose cloud or offline hosted desktop solutions based individual priorities and requirements.
| CLOUD HOSTED DESKTOP | VDI |
|---|---|
| Desktop is hosted on the public or private cloud. | Desktop is hosted on a centralized, on-premises server. |
| Fully managed offering where a third party cloud service provider like ACE takes care of Hardware, software & helpdesk for the customer. | The virtual desktops are managed by the Internal IT team from the Hardware, Software to the helpdesk. |
| Accessible anytime, anywhere and on any device with an active internet connection. | VDI is generally restricted to be access via corporate intranet inside office premises. It can be accessed outside office premises with the help of VPN. |
| DaaS has a lot of stringent security measures available such as peripheral device management, clipboard restrictions etc. In order to avoid any data leakage. | Since VDI is hosted in an on-prem datacentre, which is under control of internal IT team. The data will remain secure. |
| DaaS can be a part of Business Continuity plan for any organization. Many DaaS Providers have Disaster Recovery plans for their Datacentres, hence even in case of Disaster the business do not get hampered. | For VDI to have Disaster recovery, company needs to invest in a separate DR site that means more expenditure. |
| Significantly cost saving. No upfront cost, just pay as you go. | Very high upfront capital investment is needed to start VDI. |
| Desktop scalability can be a hassle due to costly equipment. | On-demand scalability as per VDI usage for optimum resource utilization. |
