CeedoDesktop Advanced Layering for VDI

Cloud Computing Virtualization Solutions VDI New computing concepts and advanced technologies are making the impossible possible

Cloud Computing Virtualization Solutions VDI Virtual Desktop Infrastructure Running the Windows Enterprise Desktop remotely from any device, securely and centrally managed 1970s1980s1990s2000s2010s

The desktop as we know it UPDATES ACCUMALATE IOPS and capacity demands grow ONE CHUNK DESKTOP Storage = 1000s of desktops BULK MANAGEMENT Just like physical + extra of VDI

The desktop as we know it UPDATES ACCUMALATE IOPS and capacity demands grow ONE CHUNK DESKTOP Storage = 1000s of desktops BULK MANAGEMENT Just like physical + extra of VDI THE ONLY SOLUTION: BREAK THE DESKTOP TO ITS BUILDING BLOCKS

Common desktop slicing methods POOLED DESKTOPS 1 Golden OS image for all users USER VIRTUALIZATION Separately stored user profile and APPLICATION VIRTUALIZATION Separately stored packaged applications and DIFFERENTIAL DISKS One delta image for each user and Deployment time, management overhead and hardware requirements Concept: use of many independent, shared and pooled resources Result: the more solutions you add – the harder it is to deploy and manage CAPEX / OPEX

What you need is a better slicing method POOLED DESKTOPS 1 Golden OS image for all users USER VIRTUALIZATION Separately stored user profile and APPLICATION VIRTUALIZATION Separately stored packaged applications and DIFFERENTIAL DISKS One delta image for each user and One solution that will do it all Simple to deploy and easy to use MODULAR DESKTOP COMPOSITION Deployment time, management overhead and hardware requirements WITH CAPEX / OPEX

USER PERSISTENCE On stateless VDI APP DEPLOYMENT Shared application layer PERFORMANCE Temporary RAM R/W layer Modular desktop composition at file-level Ceedo Desktop – Multi-Purpose Modular Layer

RUNTIME LAYER To capture runtime session operations ONE-TIME UPDATES Efficiently update one component once to affect all users PARTITIONED DESKTOP Storage = Single shared layers serving many users USER PERSISTENCE Even if the VM goes back to original state CeedoDesktop separately stores a modular layer

Runtime layers Many Read\Write Application layers Read only per department\layer Base image clones Read only for all organization EXACT STORAGE SIZING PER-IOPS PER-LAYER

POOLED APPLICATIONS WITH NO APPVIRT LIMITATIONS EXACT STORAGE SIZING PER-IOPS PER-LAYER

EXACT STORAGE SIZING PER-IOPS PER-LAYER POOLED APPLICATIONS WITH NO APPVIRT LIMITATIONS TRIGGERED ON LOGON RANDOM POOLED DESKTOPS

Modular desktop composition at file-level NO LIMITATIONS Of stateless non-persistence VDI environments NO LIMITATIONS Of Application Virtualization and user profiles NO LIMITATIONS Of traditional differencing disk block-level layering CeedoDesktop – How is it different?

To conclude… Deploy random/floating pooled VDI and get dedicated-stateful benefits Provide users with complete computing freedom Easily flavor desktops without messy packaging and no runtime overheads Separately manage desktop components in a modular fashion Make VDI suitable for more demanding task types
