1. A method for a virtual desktop service, comprising:

  • validating, by a connection broker, a user by using a user identification (ID) and a password when a user terminal is connected using one or more security protocols;

    identifying, by the connection broker, a user profile to allocate a virtual machine and searching for the virtual machine that satisfies a hardware configuration of the user terminal;

    transmitting, by the connection broker, information about the hardware configuration to request a virtual machine infrastructure to generate a new virtual machine if there is no suitable virtual machine;

    applying, by the connection broker, the user profile to the allocated or generated virtual machine after the virtual machine has been allocated or the new virtual machine has been generated;

    generating, by the virtual machine infrastructure, a connection in which a virtual desktop is to be delivered, and dispatching connection information about the generated connection to the connection broker,wherein the virtual machine infrastructure supports high availability features with predefined configuration parameters, andwherein running virtual machine instances are generated from a same virtual machine template with the pre-defined configuration parameters and are composed of identical parameters;

    transmitting, by the connection broker, the connection information to the user terminal to connect the user terminal to the virtual machine infrastructure,wherein the connection broker coordinates a delivery protocol including a virtual desktop delivery protocol between the user terminal and a virtual desktop server,wherein the virtual desktop delivery protocol provides communication channels between the user terminal and the virtual desktop server and transfers interaction information including display, configuration and monitoring information, andwherein the virtual desktop delivery protocol performs a function for encapsulating and delivering either access to an entire information system environment or access to a remote user terminal via a network; and

    updating, by the connection broker, a changed user profile in a user profile pool during execution of a log-off operation.
