Agenda• Introductions• VMware VDI Solutions• Sun VDI Solutions• Sun VDI In-Depth Look
3
Desktop Management GoalsCentralize Computing Resources• Move under-utilized computing
and storage resources back from the edge of your network
Increase Security● Use desktop environments that are
hardware independent with no localized data
Streamline Management● Use a single set of desktop
tools for both full desktopdevices and thin clients
Improve Flexibility and Access● Quickly provision new desktops
and applications to users● Ensure business continuity
4
Emerging Access RequirementsNeed for Instant Desktop Recovery and ProvisioningQuickly recover, re-provision and re-establish user access to ensure business continuity
Need for Remote Offices, Virtual Offices, HotelingSupport for a virtual work environment where users have alternative access to complete desktop resources while working remotely
Need for Secure and Controlled Access by Outsourcing EntitiesSecure data and resources within the corporate datacenter andsupport outsourced or offshore developers
Need for Desktop Consolidation and StandardizationContain desktop proliferation and build a standardized, centrally-managed desktop environment that adheres to internal and external compliance guidelines

The Desktop Virtualization Revolution• IT struggles with overly
complex and ineffective desktop strategies
• Server virtualization revolutionized how IT managers think about compute power
• The tremendous success of server virtualization prompted IT to consider virtualization to solve their desktop problems
• Customers are demanding solutions, Sun is delivering

Virtualized Desktop Solutions
Multiple UsersPer Server
Each User WithDedicated Blade
Each User WithDedicated VM (VDI)
One operating system is used to service multiple users. Each user has a separate session but shares the operating system and applications with others. Each user has a dedicated blade system
and operating system. Applications are installed individually for each user and the blades are managed individually. Like the blade solution, but each user's
system is a virtual machine instead of a physical one. OS and applications are installed and managed individually.

VMware UMD Press Release• “As a major research university, it’s critical that our students,
faculty and staff get access to the applications they need, when they need them,” said Jim Maloney, network operations manager, UMD – Facilities Management. “The combination of VMware Virtual Desktop Infrastructure and Sun Ray Software and virtual display clients greatly improved performance and end user convenience. This joint solution has helped us significantly reduce the time we spend managing our growing desktop infrastructure as well as cut down on energy costs through virtualization.”

Sun VDI Software Key Features
• Brokering functionality• Simplified installation• Browser-based
administration console• Flexible architecture• Industrial-grade security• Intuitive load-balancing
36
Brokering Connections• Creation of shared pools of VMs
> Static ● 1:1 dedicated assignment of VM
> Dynamic● Automatically generates VMs from a
template● Any user assigned to any VM
• Create policies for pools of VMs> Min/Max number of VMs within a pool> Expiration & duration of VM> VM life cycle: clone, delete, or reuse
37
Virtual Machine Life Cycle
38
Brokering (continued)• Ability to create multiple pools• VMs are assigned a unique
display name for each user• Assignment of tokens (e.g.
smart cards) to VM pools • Define global policies
> Default pool> Clone interval> Recycle interval
39
Simple Installation & Configuration• Easy connection wizard helps to
instantly connect to the VirtualCenter Server
• VDC installation automatically installs a new Sun Ray kiosk session type for VDI
• VDC installation automatically creates a 'mydesktop' link for instant desktop access with SGD (no webtop!)
• VDC Agent and VDC Tools use native Windows installers
40
Browser Administration
• Central point of system-wide administration> Create/remove policies> Session control of VMs
– start, stop, suspend, delete> Assign VMs to pools or users> Ability to search for VMs> Specify storage locations for VM
disk files
41
Flexible and Mobile
• Gain access to your desktop from nearly any device!> Display remote desktop
environment on Sun Ray clients
> Reuse your existing traditional desktop or laptop PCs (or nearly any Java enabled web browser!)
> Any combination thereof!
42
Authentication & Security• Leverage Sun Secure Global Desktop
Software> LDAP(S), AD, RSA SecurID> SSL/TLS for secure connection> AES 256, 3DES, or RC4 ciphers> Smart card authentication to Windows
• Leverage Sun Ray virtual display clients > Integrated VPN client
● Cisco 3000 EzVPN compatible> Optional RC4 encryption cipher for
LAN deployments.> Smart card authentication to Windows
43
Load Balancing
• Leverage Local SGD or SRS data stores for VDC policy and data storage
• Integrate with existing load-balanced SGD Arrays or Sun Ray Failover Groups (FOG) Data Center
