  1. Parallels Virtuozzo Containers for VDI Carla Safigan, Parallels Paul Ghostine, VP General Manager, Provision Networks Division, Quest Software

  2. What is Virtual Desktop Infrastructure? Desktops served from secure centralized servers in the Data Center

  3. Physical Desktop TCO Source: Gartner Research Today's Enterprise Desktops • Challenges: • Security • Management • Maintenance • Big Migrations / Upgrades (Vista) • IT Budget Pressure

  4. CIOs Primary Drivers of VDI

  5. Parallels Virtual Desktop Infrastructure Overview

  6. Parallels VDI Overview • VDI Access Options • Access Virtual Desktops using: • Existing Hardware • New Thin Clients • Home based systems used by remote workers • Access Virtual Desktops from inside & outside the firewall User Interface Virtual Desktops Connection Broker Management Tools User Interface User Interface

  7. Parallels VDI Overview • Fully Functional Desktops in the Data Center • Virtual Desktops are hosted in the Data Center on Parallels Virtuozzo Containers • They have a look and feel like Windows XP • Each Desktop can be customized and is completely isolated • vWorkspace - Connection Broker and User Experience User Interface Virtual Desktops Connection Broker Management Tools Connection Broker Virtual Desktops

  8. Parallels VDI Overview • Managing Virtual Desktops • Deploy Virtual Desktops within seconds • Setup predefined virtual desktop configurations • Leverage Active Directory policies • Create user groups and add applications to individuals or users in seconds • Update and upgrade desktops quickly w/ global updates User Interface Virtual Desktops Connection Broker Management Tools Management Tools Management Tools

  9. Why Parallels for VDI

  10. Why Parallels Virtuozzo Containers for VDI?

  11. VDI Comparisons * Assumes 2-Quad core 64-bit Server & OS

  12. Application “Templating” • Small footprint links Application/OS • Applications to one or multiple containers simultaneously • Command Line and GUI Template Creation Tools. http://www.parallels.com/en/virtuozzo/templates/catalog/ 12 Parallels – Optimized ComputingTM

  13. Resource Pre-Allocation vs. Pooling Initial Necessary Memory (RAM) Initial Necessary Disk Space 1 Virtual Environment The above assumes (1) virtual environment with 5GB disk limit and 1GB memory limit. 13 Parallels – Optimized ComputingTM

  14. Application Template Links (Applications) Host Operating System Container 3 Container 2 Container 1 Application Cache 14 Parallels – Optimized ComputingTM

  15. Virtual Desktop Benchmark Superior Scalability 15 Parallels – Optimized ComputingTM

  16. Paul Ghostine Vice President & General Manager Desktop Virtualization Group

  17. Power consumption, cooling / heat, space, data security, backups, updates, refreshes, and user administration tasks Another Quick Look Definition: Desktop virtualization centrally hosts and delivers a cost efficient desktop environment from within the datacenter by consolidating many physical desktops onto a single server or server farm. Data Center Physical Device Desktops, Laptops, Thin Clients

  18. The “Broker” • Scalable • Persistent or NOT (Not is Better!) • Integrated Load Distribution • Failover – local / geographic • Optimized Performance • Management & Automation • Automated provisioning • Sysprep editing • Directory integration • Pooling, Persistence etc. • Policy-driven power management • Policy-driven access • Phyiscal and Virtual • Presentation and Desktop Virtualization • Full lifecycle desktop management • User session management • Profile management • CPU utilization management • Virtual memory optimization - Consolidation Models • Presentation (terminal services) • Shared Remote (VDI) • Dedicated Remote (Physical and blade PCs) • The User Experience • Performance • Bi-Directional Audio • Multimedia Acceleration • Latency Reduction • Graphics Acceleration • Browser Acceleration • Familiarity • Application publishing • Seamless Windows • Multi-monitor support • Printer management • USB redirection • - Ubiquity • Portability • Desktop replacement • Remote access • Telcommuting • Business continuity / DR The Nuts and Bolts • The Infrastructure • Access Infrastructure • Web-based • Integrated SSL and 3rd party support • Client heterogeneity (Win32, CE, Linux) • Application and Desktop Publishing • Smartcard and 2-factor auth support • Virtualization Infrastructure • Platform independence • Agnostic • Future-proof • Seamless integration • No “rip and replace” Quest vWorkspace: Production-Proven; Enterprise-Grade; Experience Optimized!

  19. Parallels Virtuozzo End-to-End Desktop Lifecycle Management

  20. The User Experience

  21. Enabling the Cloud – Why Now? • Service Providers • Value-added services • More $€₤ per rack • Longer commitments • Sticky service • Protocol improvements • Virtualization advancements • The Cloud • Timing is everything • Customers are receptive • Customers • Facing global recession • Doing more with less • Improve desktop availability • Lower cost and complexity of desktop mgmt • Replace CAPEX with predictable OPEX
