1. Business Continuity and Disaster recovery with VDI

2. Agenda 1. Overview of VDI Vmware VDI Xen VDI VDI case study Break Live demonstration Questions and answers Hands on

3. Risk: Data security and compliance Speed: Slow desktop refresh and patching Performance: Bloated Desktop Cost $$$: One-off fixes Challenges with Traditional PC Deployment

4. Traditional Distributed PCs – Costly and Complex procure retire Tightly coupled & locally installed image back-up Traditional management tools & processes secure maintain X User Profile deploy monitor X X Apps Pack and Ship Desktop OS Hardware • Install apps – patch & upgrade • Back-up data – encrypt & secure • Refresh hardware every 3 years

5. XenApp Hosted or Streamed Applications XenAppfor Virtual Desktops XenApp • Improved application management • Better capacity planning • Reduced storage & server requirements • Pristine, high-performance desktop XenDesktop

6. Why not XenApp Desktops?

7. Citrix Xen Desktop • Responsive end-user experience • Simple Desktop Provisioning & Application Delivery • Supports Broad Desktop Delivery Ecosystem • Reliable Desktop Access Management • Built-in Desktop Optimization and Support (secure / optimize / monitor the delivery of desktops) • Integrates with multiple hypervisors - Citrix XenServer, VMWare ESX , MS Hyper V

8. Desktop Delivery Vision When XenApp won’t work, XenDesktop is a Better Way… Profiles Virtualized & Isolated Profile Apps Windows Apps Dynamically Delivered Hardware XenDesktop • Fewest possible desktop images • Desktop image simplicity • Fewer conflicts, minimized testing • Low-touch, self-serve re-imaging • Minutes/hours turn-around time OS

9. Benefits of Centralized Desktop Delivery Data centrally controlled, tracked, and secured Fix centrally, deliver globally @ a lower cost Rapidly update PCs or operating systems Apps are isolated and fast Risk: Data security and compliance Speed: Slow desktop refresh and patching Performance: Bloated Desktop Cost $$$: One-off fixes Desktop Delivery System Virtual Desktops IT Admin Data Center

10. Desktop Delivery Components Support Brokering Monitoring 2 1 Operating Systems, Apps, and user Profiles are provisioned on demand Users request their desktop by logging in to the system Profiles Hypervisor Users Secure Remote Access WAN Optimization Apps 3 Users are delivered their desktop remotely OS Blade Chassis Virtual Desktop Infrastructure

22. Huge interest in Desktop Virtualization: 2 major concerns remain: Licensing & TCO 55% of respondents believe TCO is hindering desktop virtualization adoption 63% of respondents believe MS VECD is hindering desktop virtualization adoption Source: Goldman Sachs IT Spending Survey, January 2010.

23. Microsoft simplifies desktop virtualization Pre-2010 Now Complex VECD licenses • $110/user/year • $23/user/year (Active SA) Limited to 1 device connection Simpler Windows-based endpoint • SA offers FREE rights to VDI Non-windows based endpoint • New VDA license $100/user/year Unlimited non-corporate device connections New!

24. Desktop Management Savings with XenDesktop

25. App Management Savings with XenDesktop

26. Delivering a Strategic Desktop Transformation Traditional Transformed

27. How to Transform at the Lowest Possible Cost 1) Match virtual desktops to your users 2) Deliver virtual desktops using existing network 3) Repurpose endpoints and turn refresh budget into a strategic investment 4) Leverage market dynamics and implement a BYOC program.

28. VDI alone offers only so much ROI and flexibility VDI and Citrix XenDesktop Citrix XenDesktop supports all virtual desktop flavors

30. Break Out of the PC Refresh Cycle Retain PCs Application Virtualization Replace PCs with thin clients Re-purpose PCs as desktop appliances • “We simply redirected money that would have been spent on PC upgrades over two years to pay for the Citrix solution. In the end, rather than having 500 new computers on campus that only benefit the students and employees who use them, we have provided a high-speed, highly available system that benefits every student and employee at our college.” • Dustin Fennell, CIO, Scottsdale Community College

31. Centralize Using Your Current PC Refresh Budget  Investment  Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4  Savings  Replace PCs over time Re-purpose PCs to extend life 1000 Desktops
