Let’s Define the Target Market
Who has branch offices?
• Almost everyone (Finance, Insurance, Manufacturing, Education, etc.)
Why are branch offices challenging?
• Centralized vs Distributed management
• Application and data access
• WAN
• Support and maintenance
And….branch offices are changing….

Horizon Challenges with Branch Office Deployments
• Low Bandwidth
• High Latency
• Potential for WAN outages
WAN Connectivity
• Local PC, Applications and Services
• Local peripheral performance e.g. Printing
Branch Execution
• Delivering other Branch services (DHCP, Print Services)
• Sizing central storage for peak IOPS
Design Considerations

Mirage Server
• Images are being stored and
manipulated in data center
• Unlike VDI, Images are not
running in data center
• Images synchronized with end
points automatically
• Logical layering of images
enhances granular capabilities
Centralized Images
Network Optimized Synchronization & Streaming
• Only stores data once
• Only transfers what is not present on destination
• All transfers compressed
Base Layer
Desktops, Laptops, or
Persistent VMs with
Mirage Client
• Endpoints always running local copy of Windows
• Does not require hyper-visor or format
• Local drivers leveraged
• Changes from Mirage merged directly into Windows
End Users
Mirage Architecture: Manage Centrally, Execute Locally!
