What does DAAS stands for and its different benefits to businesses?
Permalink   
 


DaaS stands for ‘desktop/device as a service’. With a widespread shift to cloud computing, many businesses now access data, workspaces and applications that are cloud-based. Cloud DaaS helps to oversee the structure, security, uniformity of this system without any fuss. DaaS is similar to software as a service, or SaaS, a cloud computing strategy that involves delivering applications to end-users over the network, rather than having them run applications locally on their devices. Just as SaaS removes the need to install and manage software locally, DaaS outsources most data storage, integration, and processing operations to the cloud. While the SaaS model has been popular for more than a decade, DaaS is a concept that is only now beginning to see widespread adoption. That is due in part to the fact that generic cloud computing services were not initially designed for handling massive data workloads; instead, they catered to application hosting and basic data storage (as opposed to data integration, analytics, and processing). Processing large data sets via the network was also difficult in the earlier days of cloud computing, when bandwidth was often limited. Today, however, the advent of low-cost cloud storage and bandwidth, combined with cloud-based platforms designed specifically for fast, large-scale data management and processing, has made DaaS just as practical and beneficial as SaaS.

 

Benefits of Desktop as a service are

Security: protect your data, meet best practice standards, and manage your IT security centrally. Remote working: If you have a remote team, DaaS ensures that they’re all accessing the most up-to-date information from the cloud, everyone’s seeing the same thing, and they have access to what they need no matter where they are. Fuss-free updates: Updates are fuss-free and take effect for everyone at the same time. DaaS is a means of providing cloud-based workspaces to employees. The technology [makes] uses of the physical terminal, [such as a laptop, PC or tablet], to communicate with the workspace hosted by the company’s cloud provider,” Chavez began. DaaS helps alleviate the cost, time, and potential legal implications when an employee forgets a laptop on the subway — because the data (and indeed, the entire desktop) is located elsewhere. “Using the DaaS infrastructure means that all applications and data [are] being accessed [more] securely, from the company’s own infrastructure.

Cost savings: Data management and processing costs are easier to optimize with a DaaS solution. Companies can allocate just the right amount of resources to their data workloads in the cloud and increase or decrease those allocations as needs change.

Automated maintenance: The tools and services on DaaS platforms are automatically managed and kept up-to-date by the DaaS provider, eliminating the need for end-users to manage the tools themselves.

Smaller staff requirements: When using a DaaS platform, organizations do not need to maintain in-house staff who specialize in data tool set up and management. These tasks are handled by the DaaS provider.

It sounds just like Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI),” I hear you say. However, there is a vital difference between DaaS and VDI. VDI refers to when virtual desktops are served through on-premise servers maintained by in-house IT teams. It’s the traditional way to deploy and manage virtual desktops. But since it’s on-premise, VDI technology technology must be maintained, managed, and upgraded in-house whenever necessary. DaaS on the other hand, is a virtual desktop cloud solution that separates from on-premise servers, enabling brands to leverage a third-party hosting provider. It’s like VDI, but in the cloud instead of in the back of the office. 

 

I hope this information will be helpful!
