How to use VDIs and CDEs together when you have no other choice

Virtual desktop infrastructures (VDIs) and cloud development environments (CDEs) are two leading technologies for providing secure developer workstations. VDIs offer a virtualized solution for accessing desktops from any device, while CDEs provide pre-configured development environments with all necessary tools for coding and testing. Both technologies have similar security benefits such as centralized data management, enhanced admin/access controls, improved compliance management, secure remote access, and reduced endpoint security risks. In highly regulated industries that require remote desktop access, it is recommended to leverage both CDEs and VDIs to address the specific needs of developer experience within these remote desktop workstations.
