What is virtualization?

“Virtualization essentially lets one computer do the job of multiple computers,

by sharing the resources of a single computer across multiple environments”.

Physical Virtual


Virtualization can be done for:Servers, Applications & Desktops

What is desktop virtualization?

Desktop Virtualization (or VDI) will bring the ability to host and

centrally manage desktop virtual machines in the data centerwhile giving end users a full PC desktop experience

Desktop Virtualization uses the same techniques as server virtualization platforms.


What could VDI bring ?

TCO reduction

Business Continuity» Enlarged business agility.» Improved Workplace maintenance.» Relieve in case of pandemic.


» Relieve in case of pandemic.

Business Functionality» Flexible office space» Start uptime» Combination with personal desktop device

Environmental reasons» 80% Reduction power consumption per user» Noise reduction

Power consumption example

Classic desktop situation

1.000 desktops 150 Watt 150 kWatt

cooling factor 1,25 dissipation factor187,5 kWatt

Sub Total 337,5 kWatt

Equipment use 2000 hour/y 675000 kwh/y

Total use 675000 kwh/y

Example of virtual sesktop situation

local power use

1.000 thin clients 8 Watt 8 kWatt

8 Adaptive Virtualization Services – Desktop Virtualization Roadmap Optional chapter number (Arial 10 plain)

cooling factor 1,25 dissipation factor 10 kWatt

Sub Total 18 kWatt


Central power use

Servers & storage 750 Watt 12 kWatt

cooling factor 1,25 dissipation factor 15 kWatt

Sub Total 27 kWatt


Total 144000 kwh/y

New desktop environment, Atos Origin please help

Approach for implementation

Initiation Answers the question weather VDI is “a good idea” for the company

Analyzing Will give insight in technical, commercial and operational feasibility

Assessment phase

Define BuildAnalyze RolloutInitiate


Analyzing Will give insight in technical, commercial and operational feasibility

Definition Will describe and set results and appointments in detail

Building Separate subprojects on implementation of the core backend and implementation / handover of organizational functions and processes have to be started

Rollout VDI front end placed and VDI backend expansion

To be aligned with companies own project and portfolio methods

Execution phase

Citrix Standard VDI

Why did our customer choose VDI ?

TCO» 20% cost reduction on workplaces involved is realistic

» 12% cost reduction on workplaces is realistic» But other techniques also deliver cost reduction

Business Functionality» Fast desktop switching (session portability)» Standard offering reduction number of device movements


» Standard offering reduction number of device movements

» Combination with personal desktop device» Combination home office use

» Only for task-workers and home office worker (= > 10.000 users)

Business Continuity» Enlarged business agility.» Improved Workplace maintenance.

Creating VDIWhat do we learn when Building VDI


What do we learn when Building VDI for our customer?

Issues creating VDI (1)

Issues and points of attention

Is VDI a desktop or a server?» IP number plan /naming convention» Software distribution» Installation rights

Network no issue?


Network no issue?» Bandwidth only 100kb / thin client» Much latency causes less usability (screen builds

up slow)

Storage is no issue in desktops... for VDI a main cost driver

Issues creating VDI (2)

Which windows build is used?» Images and Templates did not prove right» Only some drivers had to be changed

Rolling out VDI proves: reality is not equal to paper!» Unexpected devices can cause unacceptable latency


» Unexpected devices can cause unacceptable latency» Not all devices can be connected

(USB & scanning is not implemented easily)

Remarkable: we did not meet problems with applications

.

The conclusion ....

VDI

What is there to be learned


What is there to be learned

Is this case typical or general?

Is green IT a main selection criterion?

Does desktop virtualization contribute to ecomputing?

- Yes up to 80% energy reduction

- Yes large noise reduction

Thesis

ecomputing will be a success if and only if

your generation IT professionals is able to develop

techniques meating the following goals:

* No cost upswing

* Improve usability / business functionality

* Ensure Business continuity


* Ensure Business continuity

* And yes ...

Larger energy efficiency
