So what is VDI? VMs on Hyper-V running desktop OS – users access via RDS Windows Server 2008 R2 RDS has specific enhancements to facilitate VDI Why? Basically another way to deliver RDS Multiple OS instances (1 per user) instead of one shared instance per server Solves issues that may exist with traditional shared server solutions

RDS Deployment Options RD Session Host (aka TS) Low cost image management Easiest admin management Least resources required Good compatibility for legacy apps Pooled Virtual Desktop Medium cost image management Easier admin management than Personal Less Resources than personal Better compatibility for legacy apps Personal Virtual Desktop High cost image management Administrator access (user can install programs) High Resource cost Compatibility for legacy apps Customers will mix & match options Microsoft Confidential

RDS – New and Improved Unified Admin and User experience for RD Session Host (1 session per user) RD Virtualization Host (1 VM w/desktop OS per user) Two options for VM-based desktops Pooled virtual desktop Permanent virtual desktop Richer remoting experience (multi-mon, multi-media, bi-directional audio, rich graphics) Better App Compat thru AppV for RDS Scalable VM management thru SCVMM Improvements in RD Session Host VMs with Client OS (VM-per-user) RD Connection Broker Pooled VMs Sessions with Server OS (Session-per-user) Single Image RD Virt Host RD Session Host Personal VMs

RD Virt Host and AppV – Better Together ProblemSolution Badly written Apps store user state outside user profile AppV – redirects user state to User Profile Reduce cost of App deployment/management AppV - Streaming makes it easier to centrally deploy and update applications AppV – Silo reduces test effort Support multi-workload (role based assignment of apps ) AppV – User based app assignment, Silo reduces app conflicts and can allow multiple versions of apps to be deployment.

RD Virt Host and SCVMM – Better Together ProblemSolution Scalable approach to create Guest OS in VM SCVMM’s VM creation is Template based, IC’s auto-installed, Scriptable. Track and manage large number of VMs SCVMM VM library Microsoft Confidential
