Client Virtualization Technology Landscape2

Why client virtualization?My apps and data anywhereUsersBusinessITSavings and ROICentralize management3

The central challenge of client virtualizationUser expectations1. Reliable, always-on experience2. Fast, responsive applicationsUsers3. My data and apps anywhereBusiness imperatives1. Enable and retain users2. Minimum total cost3. Speedy return on investmentBusinessITIT realities1. Expensive, siloed infrastructure2. Demand spikes and login storms3. Difficulty scaling4. Risk of data loss/downtime4

Possible client virtualization outcomes1Over investHappy usersTerrible ROI2Under investLow adoptionTerrible ROI3CompromiseUnhappy usersLow ROI5

A better approachStrategies to delivering client virtualization without compromise1. Simplify infrastructure-supporting client workloads2. Start small and scale out versus sizing upfront3. Address performance intelligently, without breakingthe bank4. Build-in resiliency – treat client workloads like firstclass citizens6
