Haider Aziz Advisory System Engineer-EMEA End User Computing Redefining Application and Data Delivery to the Modern Workforce 1
Why Customers Care The World of End Users and IT is Transforming NEW Users & Applications Data OLD 2
Why Customers Care Everything Across the Business is Affected Multi-Device workforce Data & Collaboration 3
Why the CIO and IT Admins care Agility, Efficiency & Performance at Scale Virtualize Just the apps Virtualize Entire desktop Seamless Transition Optimized for: Smaller screen, mobile Touch interface Non-persistent workspace Optimized for: Large Screen Footprint - Multi-window Keyboard and mouse Persistent workspace 4
Desktop Virtualization as a Service Lots of Vendor Choices Desktops, Applications and Data as a Service Desktop and Application View Image and Application Management Workspace Simple powerful DV with great user experience Low-touch central image management for physical PCs Streamline the end-user experience with a secure multi-device mobile workspace for IT services 5
Virtual Desktop Storage Misery User Experience is the most important metric Storage is often the enemy of user experience Old-school remedies are inefficient Legacy arrays don t deliver user experience Need a total solution offering DV means real adoption, success beyond Pilot Users demand dedicated local drive performance Flexible VDI - intelligent data services needed Legacy arrays cant deliver DV success at scale Enterprise solution needs more than a fast array Multiple user needs, bursty apps, all amplified at scale DV places users into a shared container Linked, Full clones persistence/nonpersistence Flash is the only way to succeed at scale What about the user data, backup, HA/DR? 6
