MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif.--BUSINESS WIRE--Atlantis Computing, a leading provider of Virtual Desktop Infrastructure
VDI storage and performance optimization solutions, today announced
that it will be demonstrating live at VMworld 2010 – booth #1140 – a VDI
deployment that includes Atlantis ILIO, VMware View, Cisco UCS,
Compellent Storage, IBM, Dell, McAfee anti-virus and Microsoft Windows
7. The demonstration will show how companies can reduce storage VDI
CAPEX by 50-75% while giving them more flexibility in storage selection.
In addition, Atlantis Computing will be holding an event title “Stalled
VDI Project? Storage Too Expensive?” featuring Daniel Beveridge, Sr.
VMware View Architect, Office of the CTO for VMware, and John Premus,
Service Director for Virtualization at GlassHouse Technologies.
Atlantis Computing Event: Stalled VDI Projects? Storage Too Expensive?
"The first factor is the amount and class of storage that must be
provisioned to each virtual desktop. From an IT budgeting point of view,
this is where a vast majority of VDI deployments never get beyond the
proof-of-concept or pilot phase. Put off by high storage costs, many
companies will opt to continue purchasing inexpensive new desktops and
go forward with their current infrastructures,” said Daniel Beveridge
and John Premus in their article title Virtual Acceleration in
Virtualization Review Magazine.

Daniel Beveridge will discuss how IT organizations can cut CAPEX for any
VDI solution while boosting desktop performance and increasing storage
choices. John Premus will demonstrate the GlassHouse Technologies Lab,
which can deploy a cloud-based VDI proof-of-concept POC in 1 day with
any combination of VMware View, VMware ThinApp, Citrix XenDesktop,
Citrix XenApp, Microsoft App-V and AppSense Environment Manager using
Atlantis ILIO. John will also share the details of the 90% VDI storage
capacity reduction and 80% VDI Storage IOPS offload that GlassHouse
Technologies was able to achieve using Atlantis ILIO.
The event will be held on August 31stat 2:00PM at the Marriot
Marquis San Francisco, which is one block from VMworld. For more

Atlantis VDI Demonstration: 50-75% VDI CAPEX Reduction
Atlantis Computing will be exhibiting at the VMworld 2010 conference at
Moscone Center in San Francisco from August 30th to September
2nd at booth #1140. A live VDI environment will be used to
provide information on how to size VDI storage properly based on IOPS
requirements, and show side-by-side with and without Atlantis ILIO
demonstrations of desktop performance with boot storms, simulated IO
traffic, Microsoft Office productivity tasks and McAfee anti-virus. The
demonstrations will also show how Atlantis ILIO is able to reduce
storage consumption by 98% and offload 99% of IOPS from storage.
