3 Main Virtual Desktop Infrastructure Pain Points

Simple and painless VDI with Tintri Countless organizations have chased the Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) dream to increase control and consistency, but also reduce cost. Most have struggled to make VDI a reality. The nightmare is most often conventional storage-it's simply not built for highly virtualized environments. But the right storage system can prevent the three primary pain points that plague VDI success. PAIN 1. Performance 6x FASTER Tintri customers speed performance 6x compared to similar hybrid storage systems Boot storms and anti-virus scans can drain storage performance resources, crippling VDI and frustrating end users. That's why Tintri stores your desktop image in flash and assigns every individual VM its own lane, In third-party performance testing, ESG Labs, an IT research, analysis, strategy and validation firm, found that Tintri requires: 1 datastore 8 minutes 2.5 hours to install, configure and deploy the first VM to manage to deploy 1,000 linked clones "All of the complexity of conventional storage is gone. We don't have to manage our storage anymore and our VDI just works." - University of Arkansas PAIN 2. Manageability 95% LESS Tintri reduces time spent managing storage by 95% (yes, that's the real average) versus conventional storage Storage often takes deep expertise (and a lot of effort) to monitor and maintain-especially for something as different and distributed as VDI. Fortunately, Tintri has none of the LUNS and volumes that over-complicate conventional storage. Manage, replicate, clone, snapshot and analyze virtual machines-a language the entire data center shares. One Tintri customer: OAO Deploys up to 20,000 Manages 1.8PB of storage With 1 hour a week from new VMs every month across 8 data centers a Windows Admin "The unique VM-aware architecture, the simplicity of management, and the cost-effectiveness set Tintri apart." - Bartholomew County PAIN 3. Value 90% LESS Tintri will shrink the size of your storage footprint by up to 90% Storage can run up to 40% of the total cost of a VDI project, adding up to more than $1,000 per desktop. Since Tintri operates at the VM-level it can pack VMs far more densely and put an end to over-provisioning. With Tintri you can: Slash power costs by Reduce WAN usage Manage and analyze with no 3rd party software more than 90% by up to 95% "We are able to deploy virtual desktops at less than half the cost of physical desktops, and provide a better user experience." - Yavapai College ConocoPhillips UnitedHealthcare SONY. O MillerCoors" Chevron Tintri VM-aware storage has simplified VDI for hundreds of organizations. We are trusted with more than 500,000 VMs and 50PB by industry leaders including six of the Fortune 15.
