Agenda What is Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI)? The Challenges of the Desktop VMware Desktop Management Solutions Why choose VMware? New announcements
What is VMware Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI)? VMware Enterprise Desktop is a desktop virtualization solution that streamlines the management of desktops and applications through a centralized infrastructure resulting in lower costs, increased security and greater business agility. It provides end users flexible access to their virtual desktop using a wide variety of devices for a portable office experience.
Cost and Security Are Driving PC Alternatives “Which aspects of the traditional client PC environment aredriving your interest in alternatives to traditional PCs?” Costs Security Manageability, Including Patching Flexible Remote Access Reducing Electrical Consumption Costs Reducing Environmental Impact (i.e., Energy Consumption) Other Base: 565 PC decision-makers at North American and European enterprises (multiple responses accepted)Source: Enterprise and SMB Hardware Survey, North America and Europe, Q3 2007.

Enhancing VDI Problem: Tightly coupled relationships between OS, Applications and Data • Symptoms: • Application Conflicts • Complex Compatibility Test Matrices • Increased Time to Deployment • Loss of User Productivity Solution: VMware ThinApp Agentless application virtualization decouples applications and data from the OS
Application Virtualization with VMware ThinApp 4.0 • Application virtualization encapsulates the applications from the OS and each other; eliminating costly regression testing and conflicts • IT manage each layer separately • Currently over 1 million seats (30% of application virtualization market) • Users select new applications even on a locked down desktop • Supports virtual and physical and any existing package deployment infrastrcuture • Modular desktop simplifies VDI
ThinApp the best Solution on the Market • Agentless architecture • No compatibility issues with multiple versions • No backend infrastructure requirements • 100% User mode execution • Widest platform support • Support for 16, 32 & 64bit windows, • Windows NT, 2K, XP, Vista, W2K3 • Citrix PS 4.x and MS Terminal Services • Support for the widest array of applications • Support for wide variety of .NET and Java runtimes • Multiple versions of Internet explorer – run IE 6 & IE 7 on the same machine • Works with what you have now!
Offline Solution is Critical for Desktops • Take a managed desktop offline • managed desktop on a USB stick • Security with Encryption (FIPS-2)

Platform Reliability is Critical for Desktops VMware Infrastructure is unprecedented for Reliability and Scalability
Scalability is Critical for Desktops 2x higher consolidation ratio for VMware Alternative platforms has no memory overcommit VMware VI3 with memory overcommit Not enough memory Error message after 7 VMs(*) 14 VMs(*): higgest density on VMware! * VMs with 512Mb Ram on a physical server with 4Gb of Ram
Automated Management is Critical for Desktops Pool of VMs based on single template “We could provide a workstation to any client, in any seat, at any office in the world… in just 8 minutes.” Frank SabatelliDirector of Virtual Technology Infrastructure • Automated provisioning from clones • Suspend, power down, reboot or delete on logoff • Resume, power on or clone from template on re-connect VMwareVirtualCenter
Security is critical to desktops: Introducing VMsafe™ New security solutions can be developed and integrated into VMware virtual infrastructure Protect the VM by inspection of virtual components (CPU, Memory, Network and Storage) Complete integration and awareness of VMotion, Storage VMotion, HA, etc. Provides an unprecedented level of security for the application and the data inside the VM Security VM HIPS Firewall IPS/IDS Anti-Virus Security API ESX
Who is Using the PlatformToday • VMware Desktop Solutions run on VI3 • VMware have 120,000 customers globally • Production-ready virtualization platform • 4 million Workstation users and 2.2 million Player downloads in 2007 • VDI is already here − large multinationals run • Thousands of virtual desktops in production today • Have relied on VMware VDI for 4-5 years • Business critical user groups and applications • Unique Components, such as ESX, VirtualCenter, DRS, VMotion, VMware HA, VCB, Update Manager, DPM, Resource Pools, Memory Page Sharing, Embedded Hypervisor, Storage VMotion… …
