UNCLASSIFIED DCS-4 Departmental Computing Services Today New Approaches to IT Infrastructures Are Promising Greater Efficiency

UNCLASSIFIED DCS-4 Departmental Computing Services Desktop PCs: A Major Management Problem Desktop PCs today are complex stacks of multiple hardware components, operating systems, drivers and applications. Maintaining and managing this hardware and software consumes more than 70% of the TCO of a typical PC, and represents the bulk of the workload of PC support staff – an estimated $ $6000 per desktop per year.* *According to Gartner Inc. and IDC estimates

UNCLASSIFIED DCS-4 Departmental Computing Services A Virtualized Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) A virtualization infrastructure moves the PC and all its software off the desktop and into the data center.
