With evolution technology constant, it is natural that institutions are facing drastic changes of paradigms with regard to the way in which operate, are managed and delivered services in the modern technological infrastructure; having great impact on private and public administrative and operational organizations who must be accomplished efficiently manage resources according to user requirements.
This article describes the analysis, design, implementation and testing in the computation laboratories of the Universidad Distrital Francisco José de Caldas (Bogotá, Colombia) of two prototypes of virtual desktops as a service (DaaS) for students and teachers, based on the requirements of some subjects of the curricular project of systems engineering, through the technologies Citrix VDI-in-a-box Systems and Oracle Virtual Machine. Based on this, an assessment is established to determine the best prototype to be implemented in the computer rooms based on criteria like mode of administration, characteristics that must comply with the infrastructure of virtualization (VDI), the type of persistence, among other issues. In this way, it is determined that VDI-in-a-box of Citrix System shas characteristics that adapt better than Oracle Virtual Machine according to the needs of the educational classroom.
