Providing and maintaining desktops for employees to access and use business-critical applications is an increasingly costly and labor-intensive proposition. Companies not only incur acquisition costs of hardware and software licenses, but also enormous ongoing administration costs, including maintaining software updates, managing myriad system images for the various end user requirements, provisioning sufficient processing power and capacity, and providing support for end users.
VDI (virtual desktop infrastructures) offer a compelling alternative - end users access applications through the company network using “thin clients” that are managed and provisioned centrally. Like virtual server environments, VDIs have the potential to save time and money and reduce risk in several ways:
Benefits include:
VDIs move the processing function off the desktop to the server, making random I/O processing speed (IOPS) essential for fast access. Astute Networks ViSX G3™ solution eliminates performance bottlenecks and maintains fast application access even during peak load times when multiple users are booting their systems or accessing a single application simultaneously. Patented DataPump™ Engine processor technology instantly adds 80,000 IOPS and supports 64 host machines. The ViSX G3’s unique Networked Performance Flash™ architecture lets you connect it to a standard Ethernet connect and add performance to VMs where you want it.
With Astute Networks ViSX G3™ solution, office opening “boot storms” and monthly reporting “application attacks” are a thing of the past.
ViSX G3™ enables you to eliminate the cost and complexity of desktop and to get the most value from your virtual desktop environment.
