Evaluation of Virtual Desktop Infrastructure host using User Workload Simulator

Increasing cost and complexity of maintaining physical computers have caused large organization to consider alternative solution such as implementing Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) in their enterprise network. However, before deploying VDI solution in a large scale, it is essential to evaluate...
