Sounds pretty magical for a business that needs remote access overnight, doesn’t it? In the end the result is the same - users dial in to a desktop from elsewhere - but the RDP solution will give users access to their existing office desktop, whereas the VDI solution gives everyone brand new virtual desktops, through which they can access their existing infrastructure.

VDI (Virtual Desktop Infrastructure), offered by both Teradici and BeBop, which requires companies to purchase new on-prem server hardware or use cloud servers to build a new, virtualized IT platform that then streams out completely virtual desktops.

RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol), in which each office computer is installed with a piece of Teradici hardware, and the home workers dial in to their own specific office computer from home.While there are a number of variations out there, two of the most popular ways of facilitating this are:

The most well-known providers are Teradici, mentioned above, and BeBop Technology. It enables end users to access a workstation locally by rendering desktops on a network or cloud server, then compressing, encrypting and transmitting the desktop’s pixels to the client device. PC over IP is a display protocol developed by Teradici that delivers remote desktops and applications to a specific endpoint. If you’re new to the concept of PCoIP and how it differs from MAM, let’s briefly review exactly how it works, and the different flavors available. You may have come across the term PCoIP - or, PC (personal computer) over IP (internet protocol) - technology that would enable you to access your work computer station over your home WiFi.

There are a number of solutions out there, some that act as a temporary band-aid while others will launch your workflow into the future of video. As we move into Q4 of 2020, most if not all media organizations have figured out by now that not having a cloud-based (or at least hybrid) solution for managing media assets and editing and distributing content remotely could lead to catastrophe, bringing operations to a screeching halt.
