Desktop Virtualization (VDI) Solutions
High-Performance Desktop Virtualization (VDI)

VDI offers row-pushedd desktop management for global, distributed businesses. Unfortunately, traditional storage solutions simply can't handle VDI's I/O bursts, leaving users disappointed by their inconsistent performance. And, traditional storage is difficult to scale, forcing IT to bring down systems to add new users.

HPE Nimble Storage's Adaptive Flash platform overcomes VDI's biggest challenges - at a price that makes sense for any business.

Overview:

Predictive Flash Platform

The HPE Nimble Storage predictive flash platform delivers a VDI experience that delights your end users, while accelerating ROI for VDI deployments. Deliver absolute performance, scale without disruption, and simplify operations.

Predictive Flash Platform

Deliver a superior VDI user experience

Boot storms demand faster reads; steady state and maintenance operations call for rapid writes. Nimble delivers both.

  • Ensure high VDI read and write performance with either flash or disk
  • Choose all-flash for absolute performance, or adaptive flash to cost effectively deliver high performance
  • Move VDI desktops between all-flash and adaptive flash to meet changing performance needs

Deliver a superior VDI user experience

Take the Guesswork Out of Scaling VDI

Start right with Nimble's data reduction to contain runaway VDI costs. As needs grow, confidently scale performance and capacity to a tailored VDI fit with InfoSight's predictive analytics.

Simplify Operations

Other storage systems require separate silos for VDI, user data, and data protection. Nimble's unified flash fabric provides a single cost-effective platform that can handle it all, dramatically reducing management overhead.

Solutions:

Deliver a superior VDI user experience

Boot storms demand faster reads; steady state and maintenance operations call for rapid writes. Nimble's CASL™ architecture delivers both, leveraging flash for quicker reads, and a sequential hard-disk layout for speedier writes.

Take the guesswork out of scaling VDI

Nimble arrays are designed to scale performance and capacity independently so organizations buy only the resources they need. And InfoSight™ can predict capacity and help eliminate performance bottlenecks - all at the click of a button.

Simplify management

Traditional storage requires separate silos for VDI, user data, and business-critical applications. Nimble consolidates them onto a single array, dramatically reducing management overhead.

Simplify management

Accelerate VDI deployments with turnkey solutions

VDI deployments are challenging, requiring the tight integration of storage, network, compute, and virtualization. Nimble's SmartStack™ for VDI uses best-of-breed technology from Cisco, VMware and Citrix for quick and effective deployments.
