Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization for Desktops

Securing the desktop

By moving desktop environments off disparately located desktop PCs and into the centrally controlled datacenter, Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization for Desktops helps you safeguard company data and meet strict government compliance regulations.

SPICE up the user experience

Make sure your end users get the same great desktop experience they expect. SPICE is designed to deliver a remote user experience that's indistinguishable from a local desktop PC over the LAN or WAN.

This open source, dynamically adaptive remote rendering protocol features a multitiered architecture designed to support today's multimedia desktop experience—unlike first-generation remote rendering protocols, like Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) and Independent Computing Architecture (ICA).
