Benefits to
DaaS in the Private Cloud

What is Private Cloud DaaS?

Desktop-as-a-Service (or DaaS) is a term used to describe a fully managed virtual desktop service, where a company like Atlas Cloud provides the service on behalf of another organisation.

A virtual desktop (or VDI) is a Windows desktop with a difference; rather than being stored on the device, like standard desktops, virtual desktops are stored in a separate data centre. Devices access the desktop virtually over the internet, which gives numerous flexibility and compliance-related benefits.

Using the term Private Cloud alongside DaaS simple states more information about the data centre used for the virtual desktops in question. A Private Cloud is a privately-operated data centre and a Public Cloud is a self-service data centre facility available to the public. Private Cloud’s offer physical location-related benefits and Public Cloud’s offer scalability and security-related benefits.

Desktop-as-a-Service Solutions for Private Cloud

Atlas Cloud’s award-winning hosted desktop solutions have Citrix at their heart.

Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops

The market leader in virtualisation, Citrix’s technology is a must for DaaS.

Using Citrix’s Virtual Apps and Desktops technology gives a high-definition user experience, ability to access from touch-screen devices and uses far less bandwidth than rival solutions.

Hosted GPU

We add NVIDIA’s Hosted GPU technology to DaaS solutions with high graphics requirements. It can make even the most intensive of applications run virtually with no lag whatsoever.

We have an established, direct relationship with NVIDIA and are proud to call ourselves one of their preferred partners for virtualisation.

PRIVATE CLOUD VS PUBLIC CLOUD

Atlas Cloud have offered private cloud hosted desktop services for over a decade and is committed to the solution for the long-term.

That said, we have recently made our Public Cloud Desktop-as-a-Service solution our preferred desktop solution due to the scaling and security benefits of Microsoft’s Azure public cloud.
