Apparatus and method for virtual desktop service

摘要

Disclosed herein are a method and architecture capable of efficiently providing virtual desktop service. A service architecture for virtual desktop service according to the present invention includes a connection broker configured to perform authentication, manage virtual machines, and perform a server monitoring and protocol coordination function, a resource pool configured to manage software resources that are delivered to a specific virtual machine in a streaming form on a specific time in order to provide on-demand virtual desktop service and are executed on the specific virtual machine and to provide provision information about the managed software resources in response to a request from the connection broker, and a virtual machine infrastructure configured to support hardware resources, generate virtual machines in which the software of a user terminal is executed, and provide the generated virtual machine as virtual desktops.

1. An apparatus for virtual desktop service, comprising:
a connection broker configured to perform an assignment of a virtual machine to a user terminal using the virtual desktop service, to perform a coordination of a delivery protocol used between the user terminal and servers that provide the virtual desktop service, and to manage a user load between the servers, the connection broker providing the user terminal with environmental files, the environmental files including an image of an operating system (OS) which corresponds to a requirement configured by the user terminal; a resource pool configured to provide software resources including an operating system, applications, and user profiles to the virtual desktop service; and a virtual machine infrastructure configured to support hardware resources and to dynamically assign the hardware resources to the virtual machine, wherein the virtual machine infrastructure supports high availability with predefined configuration parameters, wherein a plurality of virtual machines in the servers is generated over a single hypervisor, wherein the delivery protocol is used to encapsulate and deliver access to an entire information system environment or access to the user terminal over a network, and wherein the environmental files are prepared in advance when the virtual desktop service is provided.
