  6. Course Topics

  7. Module 1: Introduction to Desktop Virtualization

  8. Module Agenda • What is desktop virtualization? • What are the components of desktop virtualization? • What are the needs and challenges addressed by desktop virtualization? • Explain the types of virtual desktops • Private and pooled VDI and session virtualization • Contextualized benefits of each type of desktop virtualization • Explain what Microsoft offers for desktop virtualization

  9. Industry trends and challenges How do I increase the efficiency in my datacenter? How do I embrace the cloud? Data explosion Cloud computing New apps Device proliferation How do I deliver next-generation applications? How do I enable modern work styles?

  10. What is a Virtual Desktop? Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) and Remote Desktop Services session-based desktops are the key technologies that enable virtual desktops, whereby a desktop that runs in the data center can be delivered to the end-user’s device using Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP). When combined with technologies that enable application and user state virtualization, organizations can achieve a high degree of desktop optimization and security and reduced TCO. Operating System Desktops, Applications, User Data VDI and session-based desktops are just another deployment model for Windows

  11. Desktop Virtualization Components

  12. Desktop Virtualization Components • Four components to desktop virtualization • User state • Application • User session • Desktop hardware • All four are not required • There are no dependencies • Can be implemented in any order • Each has discrete benefits

  13. User State Virtualization • Reduces footprint of desktop VMs • Reduces disk IO • Reduces storage • Reduces disk size • Enables shared desktops • Replaceable PC scenario • Facilitates protection of user files

  14. Application Virtualization • Simplifies delivery of apps, and allows any user to run any app, regardless of version • One install for both hosted and local deliveries • Optimizes storage • Decision point: locally run or hosted

  15. Desktop Virtualization • Provides data center-hosted virtual machine as a desktop for user • Support for both private/personal (one VM image per user) and pooled/shared desktops

  16. Session Virtualization • Not every virtual desktop is or needs to be a virtual machine • Shared session servers (formerly known as terminal servers) can replace most shared/pooled desktop scenarios

  17. VDI Deployment Options

  18. Virtual Desktop Deployment Choices: Desktop Sessions, Pooled VMs, Personal VMs Powered by Windows Server 2012 Corporate Office Desktop Sessions Pooled VMs Personal VMs Branch Office FIREWALL 1 platform • 1 experience • 3 deployment choices Home Library / Coffee house

  19. Pooled (Shared) vs. Personal (Private) Collection

  20. Virtual Desktops Help Address Customer Needs and Challenges NEEDS CHALLENGES Protect against loss and leaks of sensitive corporate data Reduce cost and time to deploy new applications and updates Easily and centrally administer and manage desktops and applications Reduce consumption of bandwidth by remote users • Enable user access to corporate applications and data from unmanaged devices and locations • Balance user requirements with corporate compliance

  21. The Benefits of Desktop Virtualization • Centralized Management • Anywhere Access for Connected Devices • Access desktops from any connected device • Enable rich desktop experiences on thin clients and older PCs • Manage physical and virtual desktops from a single console • Centralized desktop lifecycle management • Enhance Security and Compliance • Increased Business Continuity • Data center grade business continuity for the desktop • Quicker resolution of desktop failures • Data always locked in the data center • Improved compliance through centralization

  22. Scenarios for VDI Provide a Managed Desktop to Unmanaged Devices • Contract workers • Employee-owned PCs and secondary devices. Centralizing Desktop Management for Remote Locations • Branch offices • Offshore locations Task Worker Scenarios • Call center workers • Shared terminals, such as factory kiosk / nursing stations Desktops that Demand High Levels of Security and Compliance • Non-mobile desktops in specific industries (i.e. financial services / healthcare / government)
