Avoid the Waste of a VDI-only Storage Solution

Register for the Live webinar event, “Avoid the Waste of a VDI-only Storage Solution”

Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) places unique performance demands on storage. During the course of the day the I/O traffic changes from heavy read, to heavy write and then ends with a mixture of read and write requirements. This workload profile is so unique that many VDI planners end up selecting a dedicated storage solution for their VDI environment. These solutions typically include a heavy dose of flash solid state disk (SSD) to handle this workload.

However, not everyone needs  to buy a dedicated storage solution for the VDI environment. Overall costs are reduced by consolidating multiple workloads on the same storage – as long as the storage solution delivers consistent, predictable performance to VDI. VDI planners should really examine their storage selection criteria to determine if they really need storage dedicated to VDI. Rather than creating a storage silo for VDI, what if their storage solution could also handle other demanding workloads, simultaneously?

Join Storage Switzerland and Fusion-io for the live webinar event,Avoid the Waste of a VDI-only Storage Solution”.
