There's a lot of interest in VDI, or virtual desktop infrastructure, however there are a couple different models that fall under desktop virtualization. This video takes a look at the pros and cons of each models:
Model #1: Server-based VDI
Pros: Management
Cons: Can't run offline, expensive solution, bad user experience
Model #2: Client-side VDI

Moka5 uses client virtualization to create your Windows virtual desktop, called a LivePC. LivePCs can run on any user hardware—Mac, PC or bare metal. We incorporate both the virtual machine and a client hypervisor as part of a single solution. By default, Moka5 embeds VMware Player as the client hypervisor, but we've architected it to support nearly any virtualization technology.
