In this blog post, our partner Nutanix outlines 9 benefits of enabling any Product Lifecycle Management (PLM), Computer-aided Design (CAD) or Computer-aided Engineering (CAE) software from the cloud.
As you start to look at what your return to the office will look like, it's important to consider the ratio of how often teams will be expected to go in or not. For those of you who are still working from home after pandemic imposed restrictions, but only intend to go into the office for meetings and to socialise in the future, End User Computing (EUC) environments should be considered as part of your strategy.
End User Computing (EUC) environments include both virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) and Desktop as a Service (DaaS) solutions. They are rapidly replacing physical workspaces in companies that are scaling down their offices, as they enable your organisation to quickly and safely deliver applications using a Software as a Service (SaaS) model; supporting bring-your-own-device (BYOD) and choose-your-own-device (CYOD).
This effectively means that you can run any PLM, CAD or CAE software from the cloud to a browser on any device, anywhere. For instance an engineer or designer can take a Chromebook to a client meeting to show a new 3D design, render changes on the fly, and leave the clients with a link to interact with the new design on their own terms with only a smartphone.
Now that you've seen the benefits of enabling any PLM, CAD or CAE software from the cloud, let's take a look at the solution that can help you achieve this.
Nutanix Xi Frame allows organisations to deliver their digital workspace as a service through a fully managed platform. It is a Desktop-as-a-Service (DaaS) solution that lets you access your apps on any device and from any location.
The user interface of Nutanix Xi Frame is streamed from the virtual machine to a standard browser (IE, Chrome, Firefox, Safari) on the end user’s device much like a video. Unlike a one-way video, users can also interact with and control the software.The bandwidth required for this is similar to what is needed to watch a video, but the result is a user experience that feels as if the software is installed locally, even if it is really on the other side of the country.
Freeing PLM, CAD or CAE applications to run anywhere has a profound effect on how these apps can be used in practice:
