VIRTUAL DESKTOP XLR8r

IO’s: The missing link in your virtualized desktop architecture.

The biggest challenge of deploying and scaling a virtual desktop infrastructure is the underlying storage performance. Period.

In the VDI game, it is all about two words: WRITE IO’s.

 

Whiptail Tech Virtual Desktop XLR8r provides the solution to the biggest challenge of deploying and scaling a virtual desktop infrastructure; performance. Period.

WRITE IOs

FLASH BASED SOLUTION

PERFORMANCE

VDI??  It is all about two words: WRITE IOs

Why? Because 80-90% of VDI’s IO requirements are small, random WRITE IOPS. This is a nightmare scenario for traditional and cache based- storage vendors. Thus, performance - not capacity - needs to be the primary focus in a  virtual desktop environment.


The Virtual Desktop XLR8r is specifically designed to optimize IO-demanding VDI images. Random workloads - such as those in virtualized scenarios - are extremely challenging for traditional storage arrays. Not so for our completely flash based array. The XLR8r is purpose-built with proprietary software to handle your virtualized world. A fully loaded, production-ready virtual desktop image requires between 20-40 IOPS to run at an acceptable level - well beyond the ability of hard-disk arrays or in-band hybrids. By creating a dramatically larger "performance pool,” with its blazing 250,000 WRITE IOPS the Virtual Desktop XLR8r eliminates underlying disk contention.
