Yahoo Japan Corporation has deployed the Nutanix Virtual Computing Platform for desktop virtualization to mitigate the impact of malware infections and provide a consistent IT framework for staff working across the business.
“We deployed VDI on Nutanix in three hubs that review and patrol third-party sites, and as the operational infrastructure for about 300 staff,” said Hiroshi Kiyomiya, CTO, Yahoo Japan Corporation.“Desktops that are infected are immediately removed per our security guidelines; previously it took several hours to reinstall and setup the machine before work could continue. With our new Nutanix VDI environment we can immediately reset the virtual desktop that has been infected, revert to a virtual desktop image before it was infected, and work can be resumed immediately, so we are seeing staff productivity improve by 30%. ”
