Many companies in recent years, the VDI server products have been tested, but due to the complexity and high cost performance problems, they abandoned these projects. However, companies still want a virtual - and virtualization, customers can be an option for them.
A client desktop virtualization software or servers, this virtual desktop (VDI), the hypervisor-based infrastructure works directly with the end points more easily. Client hypervisors run directly on the computer and the laptop or other devices to centralized data center resources managed with the virtual office.
Bare-metal manufacturer of the machine with its virtual client NxTop Westford, Massachusetts, in the hypervisor. Dan McCall, president and CEO of Virtual Computer SearchVirtualDesktop.com a great help and support of server-based virtualization vendor client VDI, discussed the evolution of virtualization on the client.
SearchVirtualDesktop.com: Client Virtual PC hypervisor market, a more mature, yet only three years. How Citrix XenClient and such, there is competition from large companies, such as business impact?
Dan McCall: There are obstacles to overcome when entering a new market - one we must be consistent with the use of client platforms and we were able to do this. The other problem is that we must change the format of things. In our case, we go to the PC business for 30 years.
Thus, the company doubled the number of customers will be between 50 and 100 is the time to speak, or what are 50,000 and 100,000? There is a big difference.
McCall: We are the first category. We are a small private stays, but we have grown and reached a turning point.
What percentage of your customers as the train crashed server hosted VDI?
McCall: In the enterprise market with all major server-based VDI came to us after you hit the wall. Or for a specific class of machine used, but I want a virtual, or who has bought thousands of places and can not be said, "Um, yes, I'm not so sure it will eventually work for us."
1000 to 2500 the number of - - the market for medium-sized enterprises have a great interview with VDI, so the absorption is limited. However, Lenovo and Intel to support us, and in fact the opposite of VDI customers, "intelligent, desktop virtualization," you have to bring his message. Being behind us and win a high reputation in the market helped us sell our products directly to customers.
This type of virtualization, vPro, which means more chips and sales of laptop computers because it makes sense for Lenovo and Intel Virtualization client-side on the back. VDI server hosting customers without such things. This can use a thin client.
McCall: Yes.
Who are the customers using virtualization client do you use?
McCall: Health and our two major vertical markets of financial services. Environments, and the encryption key - - Many functions of our platform is invaluable in these areas. In addition, lawyers and accountants to move customer sites VDI laptop with the database server can not be successful, so we use.
Us how to use a computer to use customers. We are on Windows, Linux and Android tries to run in the future. Take advantage of their software because Microsoft loves to model. Only members of the EU Microsoft System Center and usability of the software - the Forefront Security and V-.
Therefore, there is a problem with the separation of PC hardware Microsoft Windows?
McCall: Because they love us in solving problems, talking about Microsoft. We let people into a Windows PC in a corporate environment and offers a personal atmosphere, which means "a computer, two of life" to support the idea. Microsoft, which means two license sales.
They are undecided about the best desktop virtualization, but we do not see the incentive value of the sale.
Many of his clients, the two media on a computer running Windows? It's a good performance with both Windows virtual machines, you should require a major source for the supply of office.
McCall: We like Intel, so - running on a Windows environment requires more CPU resources.
VPro virtualization worth the price to get customers, there is debate as to whether. VPro before actually improve performance?
McCall: We vPro, vPro chip cap of about 20% better [NxTop] provides performance found. Intel and the way it has nothing to do with the hose of data. Plus there are other benefits, such as encryption.
I can not go - - In addition, some other things that used to take advantage of Lenovo and Intel vPro technology, but companies are working with are very helpful.
For the future, the virtual machine to overcome certain technological limitations is? I also heard one of the problems is that there is direct access to hardware devices such as graphics accelerators.
McCall: The peripheral side, to use a computer all the others are supported by about 90%.
Graphic side, takes advantage of the momentum, but the hardware for converting a graphics chipset and using an engine that appears in Windows. It is 50%.
We work on how OpenGL accelerated graphics port, and acceleration. In addition, more than one virtual machine, virtual machine, the server will be a way to share between the road and working on a graphics card. Over the next two years, this provision should be.
But the developers prior to issuance of graphics table for us. This is not something for the future.
If you're running Windows, CAD or computer games, and can not do, never seems to know it works, and the point of hyper-feels like Windows. Obtain additional benefits that virtualization and VoIP with so many things that we normally use - it works.
