Abstract :
[en] Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) is a
new generation of cloud service in which users operating
systems execute in a cloud data center. Users
can access their desktops and applications by using
thin client devices. This thin client is consisting of
only a screen attached with low power CPU. This
new paradigm of delivering remote desktop provides
benefits in terms of flexibility, cost reduction, data
security and energy saving which are the green benefits
from using VDI. VDI becomes an important technology
in green computing and energy saving. In this paper,
we present and review the green benefits for using VDI
in large and small organizations. The usefulness and
energy-saving features of VDI are also illustrated by
some experiments.
