Wipro Announces Hosted Virtual Desktop Infrastructure

Wipro Ltd, a global Information Technology, Consulting and Outsourcing company has announced the launch of Wipro Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI), a next generation hosted end user computing solution that will enable IT organisations to deliver a significantly enhanced and productive end user experience to any device, while reducing costs and improving security. The solution is built on Cisco and NetApp FlexPod infrastructure based on Cisco Unified Computing System (UCS) technology. This is the first Wipro hosted service launched from a portfolio of planned hosted XaaS solutions.

Wipro’s global computing utility for enterprise clients, iStructure, provides the platform for Wipro VDI as well as the company’s portfolio of XaaS services. Wipro VDI is a complete, fully integrated solution, based on the desktop virtualisation software from Citrix and VMware that offers better ease of management, continuity, security, compliance and control than traditional physical desktop infrastructures.
