(6. 8)
Remote Desktop Services is traditionally known as ________ Services.
Terminal
(6.9)
Four Benefits of RDS

(6. 10)
Involves hosting a desktop which runs as a VM on a server in a VDC.
Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI)
(6.11)
Three VDI Components
1) Endpoint Devices, 2) VM Hosting / Execution Servers, 3) Connection Broker
(6. 12)
Responsible for hosting the desktop VMs that are remotely delivered to the endpoint devices.
VM Hosting Servers
(6.13)
Responsible for establishing and managing the connection between the endpoint device and the desktop VM.
Connection Broker
(6.14)
True/False: When using dedicated VMs for VDI, a Connection Broker is not necessarily required.
True
(6.14)
Three Benefits of VDI
1) Centralized deployment and management, 2) Improved security, 3) Improved business continuity and disaster recovery
(6. 15)
Three Considerations With A Move to VDI
