1 1 of 1 7/13/2012 1:53 PM PortAuthority Endpoint Management Software PortAuthority prevents security breaches by allowing IT network administrators and security officers to disable and enable USB, CD, and mass storage access at the end points selectively through policy-based rules applied on a number of different variables. Peripheral device lockout can be set to occur based on particular user identities, based on specific devices, at particular times of day, when a particular application is running, based on the size of the storage device being plugged in, or based on particular IP address ranges. This flexibility provides latitude to treat executives, managers, full-time workers, and temporary workers differently. Endpoint Security PortAuthority prevents security breaches by allowing IT administrators full control over USB endpoints.

2 1 of 2 7/13/2012 1:54 PM Sentral Management Software Sentral VDI Management Software is a valuable software tool that provides three significant capabilities 1. Sentral allows users the flexibility to broker zero client connections to Blade PCs in non-virtualized environments. 2. Sentral pushes out zero client firmware updates, if desired. /> 3. Sentral provides administrators with comprehensive health status and remote management of ClearCube Blade PCs. Brokering Desktop Connections Sentral provides connection brokering that allows zero client users to log in from anywhere and be directed to specific centralized Blade PCs. Users can roam from station to station, or to different locations, and always be reconnected to their existing sessions. This means roaming users can leave a zero client, and then reconnect to their sessions from another zero client without having to restart applications or endure lengthy login processes. This capability is a highly touted benefit of using Virtual Machines (VMs) in VDI deployments, but Sentral makes it available with non-virtualized machines (ie. centralized Blade PCs) as well. For locations that do a lot of employee adds, moves, and changes, Sentral s capability can save a huge amount of money. Rather than move computer equipment from place to place as the employees change locations, users simply broker their connection to their centralized Blade PC from wherever their new office is located. Sentral's Dynamic Allocation feature maps groups of users to pools of centralized resources. When dynamic mappings are configured, users are assigned to blades or virtual machines based on intelligent algorithms that determine availability and utilization. Sentral Management Software Blade PC Management Software Hardware Management Sentral provides system management features such as out-of-band management with support for vpro technology through Intel AMT, asset inventory, health

To allow the administrator deeper control, Sentral s console dashboard provides alerts, custom alerts, detailed audit reports, and user session logs to give advanced health and usage information.

4 1 of 1 7/13/2012 1:54 PM NexentaVSA for View ClearCube leverages the advantages of NexentaVSA for View in its SmartVDI platforms. NexentaVSA for View offers significant advantages in its ability to benchmark and tune VDI deployments and optimize performance for VDI workloads. NexentaVSA for View scales well. As more hypervisors are added to the infrastructure to support more DVMs, more ESXi hosts within SmartVDI can be added. NexentaStor VSA delivers I/O directly to the hypervisor from within the hypervisor, decreasing network traffic and making I/O performance more consistent. Because no additional network ports are needed for the hypervisor to communicate to storage, fewer slots are needed on the server. Under the direction of NexentaVSA for View, NexentaStor VSA abstracts and pools VMFS volumes as a VSA using ZFS technology. Since VMFS understands which devices are HDDs and SSDs, ZFS can construct a hybrid storage pool, applying fast SSDs as caching devices. The ZFS pool is then exported using NFS to the ESXi hypervisor, allowing the DVMs to access underlying VSA storage. NexentaVSA for View optimizes the compute, memory, and storage parameters and directs VMware vcenter to create DVMs based on these parameters, characterizing end-to-end performance of each configuration, and reconfiguring and automatically rebalancing resources as necessary. NexentaVSA for View Sophisticated installation wizards for VDI deployments. SOLUTIONS: Centralized Desktop Virtualized Desktop Centralized & Virtualized Desktop
