How It Works

NComputing vSpace desktop virtualization

software creates virtual independent desktops inside one Windows or

Linux PC.

NComputing User eXtension Protocol (UXP) delivers an efficient, secure,

multimedia interface.

NComputing access devices are small,

silent, energy-efficient, reliable, and very

inexpensive.

Operating System

VMware virtualization

VMware decouples software from hardware.

First Things First: Virtualization

14

Run several operating systems

on a single machine.

Virtualization: Fundamentally Better

Create shared pools of resources to optimize your infrastructure.

VMware Features

Vmotion – Live Migration of Virtual Machines with Zero Downtime

DRS - Dynamic Balancing of Computing Resources Across Resource Pools

HA - Automatic Restart of Virtual Machines in Case of Server Failure

Daytona Storage, VMware, & NComputing Combined Provide the Highest Density Available for Virtual Desktops

VMware allows for the creation of multiple Virtual machines on a Host

NComputing allows users to share the same instance of a Virtual machine up to 30X

Reasons to combine VMware & NComputing to create cost effective VDI

Leverage All of VMware’s Management tools Utilize NComputing’s desktop virtualization solution Reduce the cost of MS & VMware licensing

Replace VECD Licensing with SERVER OS & TS CALs Leverage Existing VMware Sphere licensing instead of

purchasing new VIEW licensing

Increase the density of thin clients per host Typical VMware View implementation – 25 clients per host NComputing plus VMware Sphere – 100 clients per host

Provide both Server & Desktop Virtualization in Single solution

The Problems with Traditional SANs

Traditional SANs – Previous GenerationController Based Storage (arrays with cluster features)

Con

trolle

r

Controller Units manage Reads/Writes of data as well as Controller Failover.

Control units track where data is stored in the array, thus mimicking a clustered environment.

The Control units have limited scalability. Traditional SANs also have a high acquisition cost, limited lifespan and a high replacement cost.

In addition disaster recovery options are expensive and limited with traditional SANs

The Solution

Created ByIn Partnership WithGeneral Parallel File System (GPFS)

Distributed parallel fault-tolerant file system

For Commodity Based Intel Hardware

GPFS, GPFS Derivates, and Similar Technologies Power the Majority of Today's Supercomputer Centers

And MANY many more..

What are Analysts Saying?

True clustered storage systems are the next generation solutions that are designed to never be complex and to be perpetually optimal.

—Enterprise Storage Group

The age of the raid array is coming to an end… they will become much less common. The array business will see single-digit sales drops and general long-term stagnation. The storage cluster

business will show robust growth.

—StorageMojo

Overall, given the price difference between FC-based and commodity-based systems (about ten times higher) and the experimental results we observe, we believe that commodity-based

systems have a lot of potential in cost-sensitive environments and applications.

Virtualization

How Does it Work?

Intelligent Clustered SANs (ICS) – Next Generation

ICS Clustering (leading edge) Each node is accessible to the initiator.

All nodes act as a single unit. Drives are data “aware.”

Data is automatically saved to multiple nodes creating an N+1 Configuration

If one node or drive fails, the initiator is automatically directed to another node.

Scalability is simple and nearly limitless.

NO CUSTOMIZED HARDWARE. ICS architecture allows a supercomputing clustered file system to run on commodity Intel hardware.

NO MASTER CONTROL UNIT. All nodes act as one unit in a single file system.

NO DATA MIGRATION. ICS scales easily. Just add a node and data is striped and mirrored seamlessly.

ADVANCED RAID. ICS has RAID-10 like features and automatically adjusts for disk or node failure.

What if you..

Could do more to ensure 100% application uptime?

Could test applications in an isolated environment before deploying, or even purchasing them?

Were never constrained by hardware again?

Could add additional software packages on the fly?

Could test your backup/restore operations before an actual outage or failure occurs?

Could add additional services to your end users without the time, money, and hassle of new hardware acquisition?

Could centrally deploy applications to your end user desktops?

Had console access to all servers and desktops in your environment from one view?

Never had to troubleshoot hardware issues again?

We can do all of this and more for the cost of a desktop or a server refresh.

The possibilities are limitless, but you will never know unless you take the first step..
