System architectures
Desktop virtualization implementations are classified according to whether the virtual desktop runs remotely or locally, whether or not a persistent connection to the providing server is required, and whether the virtual desktop is persistent between sessions. Software products that provide desktop virtualization solutions can typically combine local and remote implementations into a single product to provide the most appropriate requirements-specific support, such as Network virtualization.
Remote desktop virtualization
Remote desktop virtualization implementations operate in client/server mode. Applications run on the server operating system that communicates with the local client device over the network using a remote display protocol through which the user interacts with the applications. All used applications and data remain on the remote system that receives only information regarding the display, keyboard and keystrokes, movements, and mouse clicks on the local client device, which can be a regular computer/laptop, a so-called thin client, a tablet, or even a smartphone.
