Challenges
The vision of employing virtual workspaces for professionals in architecture, design, and engineering has long been an enticing goal within the realm of the construction industry. This aspiration stems from the intricate demands building professionals face today, navigating through various complex design software packages from vendors such as Autodesk, Adobe, Enscape, Rhino, Trimble SketchUp, TwinMotion, and more. These software can put considerable stress on a computing system lacking robust graphics capabilities. Moreover, the company must carefully manage the sensitivity of client’s project data, especially when collaborating with other consultants across different regions to meet diverse client requirements.
Why Alibaba Cloud
Alibaba Cloud Workspace stands out as a leading provider of virtual workspaces, consistently innovating in the marketplace. Enhanced by robust GPU capabilities and high-memory, high-CPU clock speeds in Singapore, it offers an ideal environment for interested customers to explore.
Situated strategically in Singapore, the setup ensures minimal latency, catering excellently to remote workers across the ASEAN region. This configuration enables customers to foster holistic growth without concerns about data security, compliance, or the hassle of hardware refresh cycles.
Architecture
Implementing Alibaba Cloud's Elastic Desktop Service (EDS) streamlines remote work like never before. The solution provides a secure, cloud-based Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) that is accessible globally.
Alibaba Cloud deployed its Global Accelerator service to mitigate latency challenges across international connectivity. This service optimises network routes and reduces packet loss, ensuring users from diverse locations experience low-latency access to their EDS desktops hosted in Singapore. This liberation from physical infrastructure brings high agility to the workforce, enabling workers to operate from anywhere.
Furthermore, EDS incorporates Single Sign-On (SSO) capabilities, leveraging Microsoft Entra ID for authentication. This allows users to access their cloud workspaces using their existing Microsoft credentials, eliminating the need for separate password management and enhancing security and user experience.
These solutions significantly simplify the remote work process, providing a seamless and secure virtual desktop environment for distributed teams, further reinforcing the workforce's accessibility and mobility.
Key Results
The implementation of Alibaba Cloud's Elastic Desktop Service (EDS) has resulted in a profound transformation for ONG&ONG Group. Over 100 high-performance BIM ready virtual desktops have been provisioned, significantly boosting productivity and operational agility. This strategic move has empowered the organization to seamlessly integrate virtual workspaces, offering employees a robust and secure platform for collaboration.
