This technical guide provides guidelines for architecting, deploying and managing VMware View (VDI) on NetApp storage virtualization. 

Where exactly does virtualization come in when implementing a Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI)? This white paper takes a look at how server virtualization and storage relate (or don't relate) to VDI, and offers advice on virtualizing your desktops. 

Many enterprises looking to increase the flexibility, improve the scalability, enhance the availability and reduce the costs of data storage have turned to SANs. The Compellent SAN enables businesses to continuously integrate new disk drive, switch and network interface technologies without having to replace existing hardware or software. 

This paper proposes several sample virtualization architectures based on Dell's server and storage products. Architectures are divided into three main categories: Small, Medium, and Large. These categories are based on the features and capacity of each product, as well as the complexity of the overall architecture. 

This presentation transcript offers recommendations for moving your virtualization project from the testing phase to production. Learn how to plan virtualization design to ensure a smooth transition to production rollout. Discover ways to align your implementation with best practices and determine which next steps to take to prepare for production.
