Session Title:

VMware View Performance and Scalability on Cisco UCS

Session Abstract:

Virtualized desktops by VMware View provide businesses agility to adapt to their expansive and ever-changing client environments. View desktops also place a different level of stress upon the hypervisor with a different use profile as compared to consolidated datacenter deployments.
The Cisco Unified Computing System (UCS) changes the conventional hardware approach to datacenter server deployments. It unifies network, compute, storage access, and virtualization resources in a cohesive system to reduce total cost of ownership, increase business agility and improve productivity.
This session will introduce and review preliminary performance data of a purported View-installed workload on UCS. Methodology for the testing was ascertained as presented at VMWorld 2008 Las Vegas. The results characterizes why UCS may be the ideal platform for virtualizaing desktops as they address the needs of an IT organization to be agile in aligning themselves with business objectives.
Specifically, this session will address scalability and architecture of View on UCS.
