3 What is Desktop Virtualization?  Benefits –Central Infrastructure –Central Management –Connection of Branch Offices –Long-lived endpoint devices at lower purchasing costs  Risiks –Higher Infrastructure Investment –Low Enduser Acceptance –Lack of Experience with Desktop Administrators Desktop PC Server Virtual Desktop Centralized Desktop PC e.g. CAD ThinClient

4 What is a Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI)? Virtual Machine  Components of a VDI –Host-Server for Virtual Machines –VM Image Management –Automatic Provisioning of Virtual Machines –Administration of User Sessions –Storage –Load Balancing –User Profiles –Access Control –High-Availability –Connection of Branch offices –Etc. Central Data Center

5 Previous Solutions, e.g. VMWare View 4 €€€€ SAN Storage €€€ €€ Active Directory €€€ Virtual Center Connection Broker Virtual Machine Composer €€ Server with Hypervisor as VM Host Full Redundancy for High-Availabilty Load Balancer The cost of a traditional VDI is hidden in infrastructure and management requirements.... and all that just to virtualize standard PCs?

6 Kaviza introduces new VDI Architecture: SAN Storage Active Directory Virtual Center Connection Broker Virtual Machine Composer Server wit Hypervisor as VM Host Full Redundancy for High-Availability Load Balancer + Kaviza Virtual Appliance „Cost savings with Kaviza are phenomenal – it is 1/6th the cost of alternatives.."
