1 Transform Your Desktops with VMware View EMC/VMware Integrated Solutions for VMware View Deployments 1

2 Typical Challenges to Contend With Distributed workforce Mobile & remote workers Outsourcing & off-shoring Contract Workers Limited control of PCs Patch compliance Security Regulatory compliance Focus on PC hardware Many makes & models Refresh cycles Management complexity Deployment Support Security 2

3 Why are companies looking at deploying Virtual Desktops? Business continuity and disaster recovery Provide continuous availability of desktops Ensure highly available desktops Provide a cost -effective, simpler, and more reliable disaster recovery solution Desktops as a secure, managed service Eliminate the need for moves, adds, or changes Allow third parties to access corporate applications in a secure, controlled manner Expedite the integration of companies in mergers and acquisitions (M&A) scenarios Remote or branch offices Give offshore developers control while keeping IP in the data center Remove the need for IT resources at branch locations Manage remotely desktops centralized at branch or in corporate data center Microsoft Windows 7 migration Reduce high costs and application compatibility with operating system migrations Extend life of existing desktop hardware to access virtual Windows desktops Reduce application conflicts and costly application porting 3

4 The Vision the desktop of the future Image & App Management Single Image Management Roaming Persona, Profiles and Data Application Virtualization and Management Lower Cost vcenter Virtual Desktop Cloud CPU Storage Memory Network Access to Desktops and Apps Self-Service, Ubiquitous, Optimized Experience Cloud Infrastructure Security Automation Planning & Monitoring Chargeback Policy & SLA DaaS Mobile Desktop Mac Thin Client Local New Devices 4

5 Reduces IT costs VMware View Delivers Desktops as a Service Superior User Experience Simplify Desktop and Application Management Standardize on Leading cloud Computing Platform 5

6 But Nothing is a Panacea: Key Challenges for VDI success Current infrastructure designed for server workloads Must reduce TCO per user Small changes have a big impact IOPS per desktop multiplies RAM kills every 1 GB RAM requires 2GB unique storage Availability and performance requirements increase Most common limit to scale Undersized Storage Infrastructure we re talking IOPS not Capacity When is this exposed? Antivirus Application Patching 6

7 End-to-End Information Infrastructure for View Integrated Management NFS iscsi CIFS FC FCoE MPFS DR/COOP Integrated Security Five 9 s Availability FLASH FC SATA DeDup w/ Compression FLASH FC SATA Integrated Backup Virtual Provisioning Snaps B2D Archive NAS Automated Storage Tiering LAN/WAN iscsi FC B2D Snaps B2D Archive Unified Storage Platform 1 to n Replication 7

9 The Key to Success: Divide and Conquer Effective scaling and delivery of the user experience in different client forms requires the separation of a desktop into its component parts Hosting Cluster Broker & Composition These components are streamed together to assemble a unique client experience 9

10 Store More Efficiently - User Data - Applications (ThinApp) - Operating System (OS) User Data Files Office documents Configuration and settings Unique information Applications Pre-packaged Decoupled from operating system Vary per-user OS Standard operating environment Infrequently modified 10

11 Store More Efficiently User Data Applications OS 11

12 Store More Efficiently User Data Applications OS CIFS (Private) Reduce capacity 50% Reduce total Storage costs 80% FAST - Fully Automated Storage Tiering and Archival Improve service levels 5 9 s availability Faster backups and restores Operational Efficiency Centralized anti-virus Quota management Backup/Recovery DR VDI User Data Tier 1 $$$$ Tier 2 $$ Tier 3 $ 12

13 Store More Efficiently User Data Applications OS CIFS (Shared) Scalable Application Repository High Volume File Access DFS Integrated single namespace Improve service levels 5 9 s availability Operational Efficiency Centralized Backup/Recovery DR Automated Tiering and Archival for your Applications 13

14 Store More Efficiently User Files Applications OS VMFS or NFS 250 MB 250 MB Snap Snap Huge Capacity Savings View Composer EMC Rapid Image Deployment (vcenter Plug-in) Enterprise Scale 10s to 10s of thousands of desktops Improve service levels 5 9 s availability Custom Built DR Joint EMC/VMware SRM based DR solution 250 MB Snap 20 GB 20 GB Reduce Storage Requirements by >70% 14

15 Have you thought about IOps? This 2 CPU blade is running 160 desktop VM s under load! 15

16 Response Time Msec 110 Enterprise Flash Drives (EFD) Significantly More IO/s per Drive at Much Lower Response Time SATA drives (8 drives) 100% Random Read Miss 8KB One Drive per DA Processor - 8 processors K rpm drives (8 drives) Enterprise Flash Drives (8 drives) IOPs 16

17 The Case for Enterprise Flash Drives The Challenge Architecting a View Environment to size for BOTH capacity and performance at scale when leveraging Linked Clone or Snapshot Technology The Analysis 2000 x 10GB boot images = 2 4TB >80% capacity savings 8-10 iops per user 20,000 iops Drive Type Sustained IOPS # of drives 7.2k SATA k FC k FC EFD The Result at scale, data reduction technologies + EFD saves you $$$ 17

18 EMC E-Lab Tests show FC 20 Desktops on 2 15k FC drives Utilization impact of booting all 20 Desktops Utilization variance over time with typical office applications running 140 Desktops on 2 EFD drives Utilization impact of booting 70 desktops at a time Utilization variance over time with typical office applications running EFD 18
