  9. VDI – An Overview

  10. What is Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) ? • Centralize the storage and execution of a desktop workload (OS, apps, data) on a virtual machine in the datacenter • Presentation of the UI via a remote desktop protocol (such as RDP or ICA) to client devices Desktop Workload (OS, Apps, Data) 10

  11. Why Centralize with VDI? VDI benefits non-mobile workers with sophisticated IT in highly regulated industries • Hot-desking between Desktop PCs • Work from home and approved offsite locations without the need to purchase laptops • Reduced IT travel to user workstations for support • Improved desktop lifecycle management through quick access to centralized desktops. Desktop LocationIndependence Business Continuity • Quicker recovery from device malfunctions • Centralized data storage and backup reduces losses from stolen devices Centralized Management 11

  12. Limitations of VDI • Multi-tier Deployment architecture requires sophisticated IT • “Always on” network connection required to access desktops No network access means no access to desktop, and hence unsuitable for offline mobile use. Video / audio / USB device performance is not as good as physical desktop Incorrectly sized VDI implementations may result in poor user experience VDI provides better flexibility but not reduced TCO versus PCs Organizations may need additional server hardware, storage hardware and software for VDI VDI is just ONE of the many technologies available for desktop optimization. • Infrastructureand Bandwidth • User Experience • Cost

  13. Optimizing the Enterprise desktop Rich Desktop Scenarios VDI Scenarios • Match technologies with your business needs of your people • There are innovative new architecture for laptops available Mobile Replaceable PC flexibility, easy to migrate users Working from home security , emergency access Home -on non company PC Application Virtualization VDI Bitlocker Drive Encryption Folder Redirection Windows Server 2008 Terminal Services Gateway Task Extending PC life security, low cost, carbon–neutral Contract/ Offshore Hosted Image security, right apps and data Windows Fundamentalsfor Legacy PCs VDI Windows Fundamentalsfor Legacy PCs Terminal Services (Desktop) Office Hot-desking flexibly, compliance, free seating ApplicationVirtualization Terminal Services (LOB Application) Folder Redirection 13

  14. Microsoft's VDI Technology

  15. Microsoft VDI Value Proposition • Microsoft VDI technology: • …Is a verycomprehensive and cost-effective means to deploy user desktops, applications and data within a VDI environment. • …Provides IT pros with integrated management of physical, virtual and session-based desktop infrastructure. • …Provides users with flexible and secure access to their desktops, rich remote experience, and increased business continuity 15

  35. Licensing Windows Clients: VECD Windows VECD Windows VECD for SA Vista Enterprise Centralized Desktop VECD • Clients with Software Assurance • Annual subscription in addition to Windows Software Assurance • Option to purchase MDOP • Re-assignment rights after 90 days to any SA covered PC • ~$23/year/ device (Retail ERP) • Thin clients, Clients without Software Assurance, & 3rd party owned devices • Annual subscription which includes Windows Software Assurance • Option to purchase MDOP • Re-assignment after 90 days • $110/year/device (Retail ERP) VECD is required for all VDI implementations, regardless of choice of technology vendor (MS, VMWare) Licensing Process • Establish Rich and Thin Client Numbers for VEDC • Use Licensing calculator for other licensing components • Count Total Number of Devices

  36. VECD Benefits Greater Flexibility Lower Costs Additional Benefits • Unlimited install of VMs on any combination of servers & storage • Support fault tolerance, workload balancing, desktop backups • Reassignment rights every 90 days to recycle license for IT charge-back, contractors and employee owned PCs • Single VECD license vs. multiple copies of FPP Windows • Single VECD license vs. cost of PC and Windows to 3rd parties • Single VECD license covers both work and home PCs • Next release of Windows • Windows Enterprise SKU • Option to purchase MDOP • 24x7 call support • Training Vouchers • Volume Activation
