1 Optimising Desktop Deployment Windows Vista & 2007 Office System Jeff Alexander | Technology Advisor | Microsoft Australia

2 How can we deploy our applications with the operating system? How can we automate user requests to refresh their computers? How can we ensure desktop consistency throughout our organization? How can we help ensure that our computers stay compliant with our desktop standards? How can we save existing user profile information when we upgrade? How can we help increase the productivity of our desktop staff? What Customers Tell Us…

3 Proactively enable business requests and IT management requirements for Collaboration Mobility Other team productivity requests Eliminate information overload and improve: Speed of decision making and execution Efficiency of communication and collaboration Quality of customer/partner relationships Minimize the cost of patching and security response Protection of corporate data and policy enforcement Reduce the cost of engineering, deploying and managing corporate PCs company-wide Operational Agility Cost and Complexity Security

4 Customer Challenges Top issues we heard from customers Cost, complexity, and time needed to deploy desktops Cost, complexity, and time needed to deploy desktops Lack of infrastructure and tools to enable smooth deployment Lack of infrastructure and tools to enable smooth deployment Lack of automation, best practices and implementation guidelines Lack of automation, best practices and implementation guidelines

5 Key Desktop Goals What customers say… Increase Operational Agility Growth Customer service Regulatory compliance Device management Varying skill sets Mobility Reduce Costs and Complexity Improve Security PC maintenance Server sprawl Legacy platforms Deployment and maintenance Identity management Software updates Malicious attacks, viruses, spam, etc. Evolving threats Patch management, VPN Secure access

6 Automation Helps Save Cost Manual Light Touch Zero Touch Windows Vista can cost less to deploy than the Microsoft Windows® XP operating system via light-touch and zero-touch deployment approaches

7 How Do You Get There? Infrastructure Optimization Model BasicStandardizedRationalizedDynamic Cost Center Uncoordinated, manual infrastructure More Efficient Cost Center Managed IT infrastructure with limited automation Managed and consolidated IT infrastructure with maximum automation Fully automated management, dynamic resource usage, business- linked service level agreements Business Enabler Strategic Asset

8 Windows Vista Deployment Goals Better application compatibility Faster and more reliable deployment Significantly reduced number of images Better servicing of images Integrated suite of tools Comprehensive best practices

9 Costs of Engineering, Deployment, and Operate Planning complexity for new deployment projects Proliferation of OS Images impacts operating efficiency Application compatibility testing and packaging is time consuming and costly Weak inventory of HW/SW/MSI scripts Deployment complexity End User Education Perceived User ROI “Does the upgrade offer enough employee productivity improvement to justify the costs?” Getting Current on the Desktop Deployment Blockers

10 Costs of Engineering, Deployment, and Operate Planning complexity for new deployment projects Planning complexity for new deployment projects Proliferation of OS Images impacts operating efficiency Proliferation of OS Images impacts operating efficiency Application compatibility testing and packaging Application compatibility testing and packaging Weak inventory of HW/SW/MSI scripts Weak inventory of HW/SW/MSI scripts Deployment complexity: Migrating user data, deploying images, custom configuration Deployment complexity: Migrating user data, deploying images, custom configuration Perceived User ROI “Does the upgrade offer enough employee productivity improvement to justify the costs?” “Does the upgrade offer enough employee productivity improvement to justify the costs?”

11 Modularization Worldwide Deployment with MUI File-based image formats Nondestructive imaging XML-based unattend files Windows PE technology Application compatibility and migration Script-based installations Windows Vista Deployment Design Innovations

12 Implementation Deployment tools Windows Automated Installation Kit Image Based Installs using ImageX Unattended installs using Windows Deployment Services SMS 2003 OSD Feature Pack with update BDD Lite Touch and Zero Touch Installations

13 BDD Windows Vista Focus Areas Simplification Separation of guidance and methodology from tools and reference material Scripts and tools for Lite Touch and Zero Touch Installations Complete Lite Touch Installation rewrite Windows Vista deployment tools Windows System Image Manager, ImageX, WinPE 2.0, Windows Deployment Services (WDS), USMT 3.0, SMS 2003 OSD Feature Pack update, ACT 5.0 Guidance for new Windows Vista capabilities User Account Control, Microsoft BitLocker™ Drive Encryption, Multilingual User Interface (MUI), and many more

14 Delivers “in-box” OS provisioning solution Leverages new deployment technology Coexistence with RIS Delivers customizable platform components Remote boot capability for WinPE Plug-in model for Pre-boot Execution Environment (PXE) Client – server communication protocol Unifies on single image format Continues to deploy RIS images from WDS servers Windows Deployment Services

15 SMS 2003 OSD Update Support for Windows Vista deployments Starting with Windows Vista Beta 2 Deploy Windows Vista RTM Requires SMS 2003 SP2 for Windows Vista client support Support for x64 client operating systems Deploy Windows XP Professional x64 Edition Upgrade from 32-bit to x64 Uses USMT 2.6.1
