AppDNA - The Mixologist with a drink for everyone
Last week, in Part 1 of this series VDI implementation blog, I introduced the premise that the planning and execution of an implementation successful VDI is tied with the planning and execution of a successful party. We talked about segmenting your users to find and the analogy planning an implementation of VDI, you should know what your users like - what devices they use to access applications? It's like what kind of drinks to serve your crowd.
Now that we know who comes to the party, we examined the guest list (evaluated our VDI users) we need to get the right materials in place to pull off this shindig. Take it from me, the pairings are overrated if you want to create an event in which colleagues find hard to look each other in the eye on Monday, so we will skip the food analogies. Instead, we will focus on different types of liquid courage and the vessels that will allow them to do their "users" happy. For the sake of this analogy, let's take a step back and do some basic mapping.
The reason people go to a party for free alcohol. The reason people even care about their jobs is because it is simply a way that allows them to access their applications. This was quite simple :. Applications alcohol =
The next part is a little dicier. We all had to drink wine in a red solo cup before (on sale!) And regardless of what Sideways said, it's terrible. The wine has a plastic taste and you might as well drink wine straight out of the box. Although alcohol (see application) is the same, that I am, drinking bad stemware tarnish my user experience and usually causes rage that eventually led to the host - not too different from the computer. This brings us to the second part of the analogy :. Stemware right for each drink is tied with architecting the method and stack delivery technology to deliver applications to the end user
So how AppDNA help you mix the perfect drink right stemware for the user right (depending on their mood)? That's where we can start Nerding out through the art of mixology application.
The right recipe
As I already said, my biased point of view due to the existence of the office is that it acts as a distribution layer to serve applications to end users. The office is only as good as an empty glass ... However, this criticism stemware always provides its share of challenges.
start with the "compatibility" of drinks with different types of glasses. If I drink beer in a red solo cup, will it work? Yes, the beer could be a little hot taste and wagging, but it does the job and is certainly cheaper than some alternatives. If there are some users who refuse to drink beer in a red solo cup and prefer glassware adult, depending on how important they are to the success of your party, you may have to make a judgment call on whether you want to splurge for frosted pint glasses. The same is true for the delivery of application ... .However, you need to start a more fundamental level: I can use this first beer
Without understanding application compatibility on all the different delivery platforms (? Win 7 x64, Server 08 R2, Application Virtualization, XenApp 6.5 local installation, streaming), how can you make a judgment on how to best serve the application ? application testing on a single platform could be the path of least resistance, but if you choose to deploy a widely used application that was designed for local streaming, but only delivered via XenApp, you will have deployed VDI, but it will not be good. Imagine wanting to use a good pint glass to drink your beer (if used), but you only get one shot glass. You will need to go further and fill it, which results in a terrible user experience and more rage. Honestly, this is why I see more VDI projects fail. The companies have already decided that their VDI technology stack include, without understanding their customers or how applications will. This is a recipe for ending Jagermiester drink a crystal glass ... it does not make sense - even if you think it is awesome
With AppDNA application management software, organizations can automate compatibility testing applications on multiple desired platforms and understand what kind stemware will be necessary for a successful party. Within minutes, he is able to understand if an application is broken for a desired platform, what is wrong with it, how they can solve this problem, or if they can not fix it, what to do to find a method alternative delivery.
from the standpoint of planning, understanding the current state of your entire portfolio of applications allows the front companies to ensure that they create the right delivery based batteries their user segmentation. The true value of these data is about ensuring that IT party planners are armed with the information they need to go back and ensure they deliver the right alcohol in the glass right to the right user.
With all the information available to the company at the front, they can also begin to get creative with their VDI deployments. As much as I'd love to say that you can deploy VDI at once with a flavor delivery, we all know that's not true ... it means that we will have parallel efforts VDI in place. If the path of least resistance and the cost is the short-term goal, go ahead and roll it to the applications and users where it makes sense. If the long game is to eventually allow end users to have a personal vDisk XenDesktop with their streaming applications for mobile use and experience of the end user, you can tinker in the background with the revenue that software AppDNA provides to get applications ready for that delivery model while managing short-term success. AppDNA think that this little app handy iPhone that tells you how to mix cocktails for any occasion. The user experience is king.
In the next blog I will share how AppDNA software can even pour drinks for you- no need to stand all night portion -. go have fun and still have a great party
