BYOD and Enterprise Application migration to the cloud: The key drivers affecting Desktop as a Service (DaaS) market

Published: Sep 2019

Desktop as a service (DaaS) market has been showing remarkable growth in recent years. DaaS is a cloud computing service in which the organizations can rapidly install desktops virtually on any device with the access to software, storage, and access (permission) also known as Hosted Desktop services. DaaS is based on a subscription fee model and provides a virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) that is hosted by a third-party cloud service provider. The architecture that is used by DaaS is “multi-tenancy” which means that multiple users, called as tenants are served a single application. The service provider holds the responsibility for the overall underlying infrastructure (network, servers, user desktops, hosted applications) and controlling the cloud.

The solution offered by DaaS aids in providing greater flexibility, cost-effectiveness, and ease of administration. The major benefit of this infrastructure is that users can access their applications and data from any device from any location without any major constraints. Moreover, it offers simpler platform migration, enhanced data security, speedy disaster recovery, and new desktop set up within minutes as well as aids in dealing compliance issues. The data interaction is done on secure and remote cloud infrastructure through DaaS. The advantages of DaaS includes minimized complexity, reduction in total cost, easy platform migration, personalization, reliability, and increased performance which is significantly contributing to DaaS market growth.

The major drivers that gave rise to Desktop as a Service market is growing BYOD trend and migration of enterprise workloads to the public cloud. BYOD means the employees of any organization need to work on their personal devices such as a laptop, tablet, among others. As the usage of devices such as smartphones and tablets have increased the organizations allows the employees to work on their own devices. In addition, the Desktop as a Service (DaaS) market is affected by the development of enterprise application migration to the cloud.

Earlier, conventional servers such as enterprise resource planning (ERP), customer relationship management (CRM), HR and payroll applications were based on client/server architecture, including a thick client (heavy clients) running on a desktop to have access with the server that is now shifting to public and hybrid cloud. The enterprises that opt for DaaS would want to cut down on Opex (Operational expenditure) and Capex (Capital expenditure) bringing optimum efficiency and maintaining the requisite processing compatibility. This ensures a better experience for users without adjusting performance or security.

The organizations are shifting towards cloud computing services. To meet the demands of customers and employees, this digital transformation is inevitable. The global market players of the DaaS market include Amazon WorkSpaces, Citrix XenDesktop, BigAir, Cisco, HCOMM Solutions, Crayon Group, VMware Horizon Air CT4, Leostream. In April 2019, Fujitsu a UK based technology company launched a new virtual Desktop-as-a-Service platform providing aid to its channel partners to boost their transition to become service integrators. This new launch meets market demand and enhanced employee experience. This initiative will offer the business a faster way to transform the workplace by enabling employees to connect, partner, and innovate expanding its market reach.
