To maximize the utilization of computing resources, University Information Technology services (UITS) implemented Citrix desktop virtualization
solution within UAEU new campus. We virtualized our desktop and related applications to improve usability, consistency and manageability to
provide secure, instant access to UAEU IT services. Currently this solution is hosting 350 virtual desktops within the new campus. The virtual
desktops are deployed across the campus at open spaces like library, common and public labs. The whole solution is giving the same experience
of a normal desktop environment to our valuable students, staff and faculty members while on the other hand it gives us a great opportunity of
managing, supporting, maintaining, updating and upgrading all devices with a centralized approach.
