The implementation of our UDS Education<\/a> <\/strong>solution for remote teaching<\/strong> and teleworking<\/strong> has made us deserving of this important award shared with UMH, which rewards the commitment<\/strong> of this university to Open Source technology<\/strong> in providing a quality service<\/strong> to the entire educational community.
\nThe Open Innovation<\/strong> category recognizes ideas that change the technological landscape and those who create innovative solutions<\/strong> for global challenges. It also rewards creativity<\/strong>, out-of-the-box thinking, and the ability to leverage the latest technologies to solve<\/strong> today’s most important challenges<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Thanks to their project with our VDI<\/strong> solution based on Open Source and customized for the education sector<\/strong>, Miguel Hern\u00e1ndez University of Elche<\/strong> has successfully overcome the challenges of accessibility<\/strong> to computer tools<\/strong> for the entire educational community while improving sustainability<\/strong> and achieving significant energy savings<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Students, teachers, administrative and service staff (PAS), researchers… Each user group enjoys the benefits of having a remote access solution<\/strong> to their user or workspaces tailored to their needs<\/strong>. UDS Education allows them to configure workspaces based on Windows and Linux virtual desktops and applications<\/strong>, as well as remote access to computers<\/strong> located at the university. In this way, they can deliver a personalized solution to each user in terms of performance<\/strong>, usability<\/strong>, and technical functionalities.<\/p>\n

With this VDI project, the university has achieved its goal of aligning with several United Nations Sustainable Development Goals<\/strong> and saving public costs<\/strong> by promoting a modern and innovative IT infrastructure to achieve quality education.<\/p>\n
