Newbie Thin Client question
I am new to this whole technology and I can't find anything about thin clients. I was wondering if I can even use oVirt with a thin client, if anyone knows how help would be much appreciated. I am also wondering if there is a way to use a Raspberry Pi as a thin client.
Yes you can. The ovirt VM portal gives you the ability to run a virtual desktop. You can use any client that supports the console protocols like VNC or spice. -----Original Message----- From: crege7@gmail.com [mailto:crege7@gmail.com] Sent: Tuesday, November 19, 2019 9:32 AM To: users@ovirt.org Subject: [ovirt-users] Newbie Thin Client question I am new to this whole technology and I can't find anything about thin clients.

While you can and SPICE does a reasonable job at being quite well-suited, please be aware that it does reach its limits when you do media intensive work. There is a reason why my workplace has dropped virtual desktops as a service (if you want to call it that) on oVirt. It didn't scale very well in terms of latency and had issues with media streaming like Youtube. I could imagine that it could work reasonably well in an office environment, but not in education for what I can tell. Regards, Mathieu
