Dell DVS Simplified composed of Citrix VDI-in-a-Box 12 e gen Dell PowerEdge R720 server

this seems to create a VDI appliance is all the rage these days and there is a lot of pitching these solutions utilizing specially designed expensive equipment. And that's why I think it is important to point out why the new version running Dell DVS Simplified Citrix VDI-in-a-Box on their powerful server 12 e generation PowerEdge 720 is true McCoy.

When you think "appliance" you think simple, convenient and profitable. But the new wave of "VDI devices" using specially designed equipment are expensive all but one device. A device must be all-in-one with all the management components inside the box. Solutions where half the guts and VDI (management components consisting of the connection broker, management and provisioning servers) gore are left outside are not all devices. Ensure that the management components are highly available is left as homework for the customer. We're back to traditional VDI management with redundant components running on SQL database servers in the cluster using shared storage. Scaling these deployments is a unique exercise for the customer too.

To create a true blue VDI device you have to re-design the VDI software from the ground that we did with Citrix VDI-in-a-Box. The logic to create, deploy, connect and manage workstations are in a virtual appliance that you run on a server with a hypervisor. Put two of these boxes together and they talk to create a highly available grid using only local storage on each server. Need more workstations? Simply add more servers. That's all. You do not have to worry if you have enough horses for brokerage connection with VDI-in-a-Box every time you add another server you get a connection broker automatically. You are not left with exercise to make highly available management components. The components of management within VDI-in-a-Box is designed to work with the other servers in the grid to provide high availability of the box!

When you put VDI-in-a-Box on a server designed to VDI VDI creating a real device. And that's what you have with Dell DVS Simplified newly released device powered by the 12th generation Dell PowerEdge R720 server specifically sized and set to run VDI-in-a-Box. It's very easy. It takes the guess work of which server to use, the amount of memory to buy or what size disks for purchase. It is practical. The PowerEdge R720 comes with capacity I / O reworked to run 66% more users than the previous generation device. It supports basic 129 100 standard and 70 high end workstations per device. The R720 comes with improved performance, front-access PCIe SSD you'll be able to enjoy the next generation VDI-in-a-Box to provide what I call performance "crusty".

If this is not all, if I were to tell you that you can buy the new Dell DVS Simplified appliance PowerEdge R720 including Citrix VDI-in-a-Box, 3 years of support and Wyse thin clients for just $ 500 / office? "Get out!" You say? I know it is hard to believe, but take a look at http://content.dell.com/us/en/corp/d/secure/2012-05-25-dell-wyse-education-cloud-desktop -virtualization.aspx. The $ 500 deal is good until August 31 st for K12 schools in the United States. There is a $ 0 package with a powerful thin client for higher education and state and local governments.

Now this is the real device VDI? Dell DVS Simplified ... please stand up!
