VDI on Cisco UCS E-seriesVMware Rapid Desktop Program validation
VMware Rapid Desktop Appliances
• Validation testing was performed on a UCSE-160D with SSD drives
• The UCS E hosted VDI infrastructure and desktop components
• For the validated design 25 virtual desktops were deployed and tested with a heavy
knowledge worker profile
• This design also applies to a deployment of up to 50 desktops in a branch or remote office scenario
• Test tools used for validation were VMware
