This past year brought about many new exciting things in technology.  On the Citrix frontier virtual desktops are the hot topic.  There are many great options available to organizations such as Citrix XenApp Hosted Desktops, VMWare VDI and Citrix XenDesktop VDI.  Discovery of these topics includes performance, costs and reliability.  What really makes sense for your organization?

As for Microsoft Exchange and Active Directory we have been strongly looking at Office 365 and security options for BYOD.  Organizations moving their email and other office related products to the cloud and looking for new ways to secure corporate data on personal devices.

It is fun to watch strategies in both of these areas unfold.  Below please find some of my featured articles that discuss these topics and more.

Wishing each of you a Happy and Safe New Year!
