1 Simplify the Deployment and Management of Desktop Virtualization & VDI Technologies Terry Lewis Solutions Architect

2 Today s discussion Technology Drivers Desktop and Application Delivery Complexity Which approach is right? What is vworkspace? Why vworkspace? New vworkspace 8.0 features and enhancements 2

3 What s driving desktop virtualization interest? Lower overall TCO for desktop inventory Desire to save budget by extending PC refresh cycles Reduced desktop infrastructure procurement costs (repurpose old PCs) Reduced desktop management complexity Support for Distance Learning or BYOD initiatives Delivery of legacy applications that are not supported in Win 7 environments Ease of deployment for new software including OS upgrades and new apps Desire for exceptionally fast desktop provisioning Improved security and controls Green computing and telecommuting Business continuity and disaster recovery

4 Desktop & Application Delivery Complexity

5 What is Application Delivery?

10 vworkspace flexibility Different users. Different requirements. Different expectations. Platforms Hyper-V SCVMM VMware Parallels Delivery Hosted VDI Local VDI RD Session Host Legacy Windows Terminal Server App Streaming Seamless Applications Desktops User Experience EOP Xtream EOP Print EOP Audio EOP Multimedia EOP USB Access Windows Linux Mac OS X Apple ios Android Endpoints/BYOD PC/Mac Thin Clients Tablets Storage HyperCache HyperDeploy Single Image Management Automation Smartphones vworkspace

11 What is vworkspace? Deployment and management of all types of desktop/application virtualization in a flexible delivery model End user experience optimization Windows Mac ipad/phone Android Linux Java ThinShell (Kiosk) Simplified enterprise-level management Advanced, scalable connection broker Single administration console Simple virtual desktop/application deployment Automation Infrastructure and user experience monitoring Integration with Microsoft SCVMM and SCOM Highly optimized Infrastructure High performance load balancing All-in-one end user portal Multi-platform virtualization support Microsoft Hyper-V Microsoft RDSH VMware ESX Parallels Virtuozzo

12 Key enhancements found in new vworkspace

13 Enabling Distance Learning and BYOD Use any device with a great user experience vworkspace connectors are continuously updated to provide the best user experience on the most popular end user devices. Linux Android Mac ios Java Windows

14 Windows Server 2012 and Windows 8 support Excellent user experience, lower cost! Provides User Experience boost On LAN and WAN Uses less bandwidth Up to 80% reduction Enables lower cost deployments USB devices on RD Session Host Improved Hyper-V Free Hyper-V got even better in Windows Server 2012

15 New Hyper-V Catalyst Components in vworkspace 8.0 Even more storage savings for VDI and TS/RDSH! New HyperDeploy Industry benchmark: significant reduction in amount of storage needed New HyperCache for RDSH Reduce IOPS Improve performance HyperCache Intelligence Adjusts for best performance

16 User experience monitoring for RDSH and VDI Ensure successful VDI and RDSH deployments! vworkspace Premier Single pane of glass Present & past data Example data: What device was used Network quality Version of Connector EOP configuration

17 Multi-tenancy Lower cost for large deployments One vworkspace farm for many domains and/or forests Drives down cost by reducing infrastructure administrative efforts Great for DaaS, MSP or Server Provider customers or internal hosting customers.

18 Anonymous users Simplifies deployments! Ideal in environments where workstations are shared Especially great fit for education: - Classrooms - Library - Kiosk Machines - Labs - General purpose PCs

19 Broker authentication Adds extra security to vworkspace deployments! Prevents illegal logons, adding extra security Preserves optimal infrastructure utilization Great for: Education (prevent tampering in exams) Administration (securing compliance) Cloud Service Provider (separating student customers)

20 ThinShell Extend the life-cycle of existing PC machines Shell replacement for Windows client end points Two modes Native - less configuration. Connects directly to a virtual desktop. Shell multiple options. Launches either Internet Explorer or AppPortal. Can be used with thin or fat client end points

21 Quest One Password Manager integration Empower users, reduce support costs! From vworkspace* use Quest Password Manager to perform self-service password reset Built into vworkspace Windows Connector and vworkspace Web Access Built-in vworkspace Password Reset is other option * requires Quest Password Manager license

22 vworkspace edocumentation Easy access to the information you need Always current, from anywhere Offers context aware suggestions Easier to find content

23 Why vworkspace? (the short answer) Manage the complexity of your desktop virtualization deployment Decrease the cost of your desktop virtualization infrastructure Increase productivity by enabling users to work from anywhere on any device 23

24 Available vworkspace editions vworkspace Desktop Edition Hosted VDI only $99/concurrent user vworkspace Premier Edition VDI, TS/RDSH and includes Foglight for Virtual Desktops $195/concurrent user vworkspace - MokaFive Suite Local (offline) VDI $299/named user
