The why, the what, the who, and the how much

Large manufacturers need to answer the following question
How to:
▶ collaborate on large digital design files productively
▶ with of business partners and users spread all over the world
▶ whilst protecting the Intellectual Property?
▶ Offering an attractive workplace to existing and new talent?
Without increasing IT Spending?
Why?

Firewall
What is CAD virtualisation?
DC LAN (40 GBit)
CAD Files Private VDI Cloud
“on steroids”
What
▶ The Private VDI Cloud is set up “on premise” (behind the firewall) directly connecting to the PDM system in the data center to ensure highest speed data processing, it is usable for your users and business partners with the CAD (and Cax) applications
▶ Only pixels and operator commands are streamed back-and-forth between the clients and the Private , ensuring highest security and speed
▶ CAD virtualisation maximizes the efficiency of PLM deployments
Virtual desktops “on steroids” in a private cloud to stream Interactive CAD sessions (rather than endlessly moving and copying CAD files)
PDM System

No plans Proof of Technology (PoT) Pilot Rollout to Production
1-2 users < 10% of user population >> 10% users
▶ Initial ideation ▶ Proof of Technology to compare virtual performance with physical hardware
▶ Compliance with Customer’s (security etc.) rules and required connections to e.g. Teamcenter
▶ Proof the business case
▶ Rollout in waves, e.g. start with suppliers, then rollout for remote locations and finally as the refresh program of Workstations in central locations

How…to deal with latency?
▶ under 100 ms the human brain cannot notice a delay in the response of the virtual clients; to the user feel that the system is reacting instantaneously
▶ Higher latency (< 200 ms) might be acceptable, in combination with lesser sensitive Spaceball/Mouse settings
▶ For Global coverage, the latency dictates 3 hubs (EMEA/NAM/APAC)

“How is CAD Virtualization different from a Terminal Server Farm?”
High Image Quality
Interactivity
High Business
impact
3D graphics
Heavy Users Many Applications
Light Users Fewer Applications
vGPU
Virtualized 3D Hardware Graphics Resources
Intense editing
--VRAM ++ VRAM MS/Office
Light client App
Data entry
vDGA
GPU PCI Passthrough
Heavy Users Native Driver
Price more important than performance
Performance more important than price
Terminal-server/classic virtual client
Virtualized CAD Environment
Task worker Productivity/ Knowledge worker
Desktop power users
Workstation users
Basic data entry/usage is central to work
Standard productivity tools are central to work
Some compute intensive apps, require 3D graphics performance
Workstation class performance for compute with dedicated graphics
