Wyse Datacenter VDI solutions: storage impact

Cost

• Drastically different infrastructure requirements

• More expensive IT managed, shared storage in the data center – up to 50% of project CAPEX!

User experience

• User experience will make or break project success

• Storage performance can be the biggest bottleneck

Lifecycle complexity

• There is a long way from pilot to production

• Must simplify scale and ongoing desktop management

Users:

“If we implement VDI my computer will be too

slow!”

Management:

“The cost of VDI storage places too high a burden on my IT

budget.”

IT:

“I don’t have time for such a complex

implementation.”
