The move towards cloud computing has become prevalent in the Canadian workplace for all the benefits it provides over conventional computing. Cloud computing reduces total cost of ownership, facilitates easier access to applications and data, provides better control for administration of the IT infrastructure, and helps the environment through offering greener and more economic desktop structure by using less hardware to implement and less power to operate. Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) is implemented by the City of Calgary to move into the cloud and this requires a data center to work as its heart.
