Cloud desktop solution for users

Solution Overview

This solution utilizes mainstream cloud desktop technologies available in the market (including VMware, Citrix, Huawei, etc.) to provide customized cloud desktop project implementation services. Leveraging years of experience in deploying cloud desktop technologies, this solution can meet the diverse needs of various users. Features include:

> Resource virtualization

> Resource visualization

> Process automation

> Service standardization

> Efficiency maximization 

By abstracting IT infrastructure into on-demand resource pools and platforms, higher resource utilization and efficiency can be achieved, along with the agility needed to better support business growth. This approach allows for the rapid delivery of applications and services with defined service levels, shifting the focus from maintaining legacy systems to delivering service innovations.

Benefits of this solution:

> Desktop cloud based on cloud computing: Cloud computing is one of the hottest core development directions at present. This project represents an innovative construction of cloud computing in the desktop terminal systems of Sinopec. Compared to traditional construction methods, this solution implements management based on desktop cloud technology under a unified cloud management platform.

> Innovative operation and maintenance management system: With the ongoing deployment of the desktop cloud project, the operation and maintenance of desktop terminals will gradually transition from the traditional mode to the cloud-based mode. With the help of unified monitoring tools and management platforms, the operation and maintenance personnel can realize unified monitoring and operation and maintenance of large-scale resource pools, quantify operation and maintenance costs, and effectively improve the work efficiency of IT operation and maintenance work.

> Providing strong support for information management: Through the unified monitoring tools on the desktop cloud resource pool platform, real-time monitoring of resource allocation and usage efficiency within the resource pool is achieved. This provides stronger support for clients in their decision-making process during information technology construction and usage.

Business Value

By adopting Beiming Software's desktop cloud solution, different business needs of various user groups can be met:

1. Corporate decision makers

This solution protects the security of an enterprise's core data, enabling strict security controls without the need for complex IT systems.

It meets the compliance requirements of enterprises. Due to the centralized desktop management, any system changes caused by laws and regulations can be completed quickly, reducing compliance risks.

Desktop virtualization aligns with technology development trends and is a necessary path for desktop management.

Centralized management and improved security mean lower costs, and desktop virtualization has a higher return on investment than traditional PCs.

Additionally, desktop virtualization can reduce the overall carbon footprint of IT operations, aligning with national energy strategies.

2. IT operation and maintenance department

After the implementation of the desktop cloud, the desktop cloud administrators only need to assign desktops or applications to specific users, maintain users in the domain controller, and regularly update templates and applications.

This effectively reduces the risk of business system interruptions due to desktop failures.

This solution achieves logical isolation between the user terminal network segment and the enterprise core business server network segment. Employees can access enterprise business systems via the desktop cloud, but direct access from terminals to the backend core data is cut off, reducing the risk of scan attacks.

Existing PCs can be retained by simply installing the desktop cloud client on them, allowing seamless use of the desktop cloud. This eliminates the need to purchase thin clients, as the existing physical machines can serve as receiving terminals for the desktop cloud.

After the desktop virtualization, centralized virtual desktops are easier to manage, and the number of virtual desktops that can be managed by each IT staffer is more than ten times that of traditional PCs.

Desktop virtualization can extend the lifecycle of desktop devices. Even very old PCs can access the latest desktop operating systems running on backend servers.

The update process for desktop devices is simplified because, with desktop virtualization, the operating system runs centrally on backend servers, and the update process can be completed by simply replacing the device.

The IT staff can be liberated from the cumbersome tasks of traditional desktop management, promoting business innovation.

Applications are decoupled from the operating system, allowing the management over the life cycle (development, testing, deployment, configuration, updating, and decommissioning) to be centralized and efficiently managed in the data center.

Applications only need to be developed and tested for a single standard platform, and they can be accessed on all common platforms using the desktop cloud client, including the latest iPad devices.

The data concentration due to desktop virtualization allows for quick and easy centralized backup and recovery of user data.

3. End users

Using a single image management system, an entire department can share a single image. All user operations are saved to individual central storage, and any changes to the desktop are automatically erased upon logout, ensuring a clean user desktop.

Work data is centrally managed along with virtual desktops, preventing data loss.

When users need software installed, they don not have to wait for an administrator to install it. They can simply retrieve it from an app store.

Virtual desktops are more robust than traditional desktops, significantly reducing desktop and application failures.

Users can securely and efficiently access their personal desktop anytime, anywhere, and on any device, providing maximum flexibility.

Virtual desktops offer more powerful performance, as users can share the powerful computing capabilities of servers.

For new employees, once their department and position are determined, a pre-configured virtual desktop can be assigned to them without requiring IT personnel to individually set up a computer, operating system, or applications. This improves employee’s work productivity.
