This is the software that Hyper-V is a simple task since its components are mediates among connection clients and service offered in Virtual Appliance format. providers. This is the basic element of UDS, as it performs the functions of connection broker to the Through a simple process, the UDS Enterprise desktop services and enables the administration and components are hosted on the Microsoft Hyper-V management of virtual desktop platforms defined as platform on which the virtual desktops are going to be implemented services. deployed. UDS Tunnel. Software that establishes secure Once the components have been stored, it is connections to desktop services through WAN. It also necessary to interconnect all of them between each provides HTML5 access to the services. other as well as with the Microsoft Hyper-V virtual platform. UDS Dbserver. This component is responsible for storing all system UDS data, such as service After completing these initial steps, UDS Enterprise providers, authenticators, connectivity… and all the is capable of administering and managing the virtual information needed to generate statistics. desktops that are deployed on Microsoft Hyper-V, which are available to users. UDS Actor. This software performs the communication and interface functions for UDS Enterprise automatically manages the user’s transmitting data (virtual desktop status, machine workstation life cycle without requiring Microsoft name…) and commands among the broker and the System Center, making it a completely autonomous desktop services managed by UDS. system, avoiding the need of additional licenses. UDS Client. This software allows the connection to the connection protocol to run desktop services.

Find below the main characteristics that we can find in a UDS Enterprise with Hyper-V solution: Additionally, Virtual Cable offers professional services to install and configure UDS Enterprise. UDS Enterprise is compatible with Microsoft’s proprietary Hyper-V differential For further information visit www.udsenterprise.com disks for deploying template-based virtual or email us at [email protected] desktops, which allows saving a significant amount of disk space, while simultaneously achieving efficient desktop management . Management of the virtual desktops’ life cycle . Automated deployment of virtual desktops on Microsoft Hyper-V . Support for Hyper-V servers in cluster or in standalone mode . Automated deployment and management of virtual desktops’ life cycle . Memory management in services, with the ability to dynamically assign memory to the different services regardless of the base template configuration All of these functionalities and compatibilities have been implemented so that they are managed from UDS Enterprise, without requiring intervention from the Microsoft System Center, resulting in considerable cost savings, as purchasing additional licenses is not necessary. UDS Enterprise with Microsoft Hyper-V is a robust, efficient and perfect solution for managing virtual desktop platforms for any type of environment, maintaining all the features of the hypervisor.

For example, E-learning, cloud computing, social networking, virtual laboratories, virtual realities, virtual worlds, massive open online courses (MOOCs), and bring your own device (BYOD) are all new concepts of immersive and global education that have emerged in educational literature. One of the greatest challenges presented to e-learning solutions is the reproduction of the benefits of an educational institution’s physical laboratory. For a university without a computing lab, to obtain hands-on IT training with software, operating systems, networks, servers, storage, and cloud computing similar to that which could be received on a university campus computing lab, it is necessary to use a combination of technological tools. Such teaching tools must promote the transmission of knowledge, encourage interaction and collaboration, and ensure students obtain valuable hands-on experience.
