DESKTOP VIRTUALIZATION
Desktop virtualization has become a catch all phrase for various mechanisms that simplify the
management of the user’s desktop environment.
VDI is a concept that has been around for some years. The basic concept is to host the desktops in
the datacenter rather than on the user’s desk. This concept was pioneered by Hewlett-Packard about
5 years ago. The first iteration of the idea involved taking a rack of blade computers, and installing
Windows XP on each blade; users then accessed their assigned blade using a standard Microsoft RDP
(Remote Desktop Protocol) client. As a concept, it worked for some high-end requirements. The advent
of server virtualization into the mainstream has meant that we can now host 30+ desktops on a single
server,A such that this technology is now far more affordable. Figure 1.1 is a diagram of a basic VDI.
The Client Hypervisor is another desktop virtualization technology. The Client Hypervisor
entails installing a hypervisor on a laptop or PC, which is used to host one or more desktop operating systems. This technology should not be confused with “Type 2” hypervisors like virtual PC or
VMware workstation that execute on top of a guest operating system. This differs from a server
hypervisor insofar as it allows the guest operating system to be accessible from the device itself.

What is macOS?
macOS is an operating system designed by Apple. The operating system is what allows you to use a computer. macOS comes preloaded on all new Apple Macintosh computers (commonly known as Macs).
macOS makes it possible to complete all kinds of everyday tasks on your computer. For example, you can use it to browse the Internet, check your email, edit digital photos, listen to music, and play games.
Earlier versions of macOS have been around since the mid-1980s. There have been many versions since then, but the most recent ones include macOS Catalina (2019), macOS Mojave (2018), High Sierra (2017), Sierra (2016). El Capitan (2015), and Yosemite (2014).
In some older versions, macOS was called OS X (pronounced O-S ten). However, many people use the terms OS X and macOS interchangeably because the basic functionality of the operating system is still very similar.
