Edge computing was motivated by the vision of new edge-native applications that are compute-intensive, bandwidth-hungry, and latency-sensitive. We show how infrastructure deployed for such futuristic applications can also benefit virtual machine (VM)-encapsulated Windows or Linux closed-source legacy applications. We present a new capability for legacy applications called edge-based virtual desktop infrastructure (EdgeVDI), and discuss example use cases that it enables.

传统应用程序的边缘计算

边缘计算的动机是新的边缘原生应用程序的愿景，这些应用程序是计算密集型、带宽饥渴且对延迟敏感的。我们展示了为此类未来应用程序部署的基础设施如何也可以使虚拟机 (VM) 封装的 Windows 或 Linux 闭源遗留应用程序受益。我们为传统应用程序提供了一种称为基于边缘的虚拟桌面基础架构 (EdgeVDI) 的新功能，并讨论了它支持的示例用例。
