Virtual desktop infrastructure is not built for developers
Problems with developing on VDIs
CDEs meet your security requirements, too
VDIs are a form of virtualization that enable remote access to a full desktop. They don’t have any functionality specific to development environments. CDEs were purpose-built for developer experience and match the security of a VDI setup:
Centralized data management
CDEs store data centrally rather than on individual local devices, helping organizations to maintain better control over data security and compliance with regulations.
Reduced endpoint security risks
With CDEs, the attack surface is significantly reduced because the actual computing and data storage occurs in secure data centers, not on local devices.
Secure remote access
Employees can access sensitive data from any location because CDEs provide a secure, encrypted connection between a remote device and the central data center they are accessing. This becomes attractive to onsite teams who are hot desking at their offices.
Improved compliance management
CDEs provide a controlled environment where data handling and processing can be monitored and audited more effectively.
Enhanced admin and access controls
Organizations can implement robust access control mechanisms, ensuring only authorized personnel can access sensitive data.
Authenticate with Git. Pick a repo, yours or ours. Choose a workspace class and go.
