About Wanova


Enterprise IT needs to: The End-User wants:Manage: Single image management without sacrificing user data or personalization

Mobility: Full support for offline or disconnected use

Support: Centralized troubleshooting and fast endpoint re-imaging

Flexibility: Install local applications; freedom from “lock-down”

Protect: Continuous desktop protection with fast endpoint restore for remote employees

Performance: An optimized user experience regardless of network latency or utilization

The Desktop Virtualization Trade-Off

Reduce desktop TCO without impacting business agility


Server-Hosted Desktop Virtualization

• Centralized desktop management• Secure desktops in the datacenter• Improved DR and business continuity

Data Center

Thin Clients• Increased server & storage costs• Poor user-experience over the WAN• Offline use is not supported

Server-hosted

Pros

Cons


Client-Hosted Desktop Virtualization

• Offline/mobile use fully supported• Bring your own PC (BYOPC) supported• Multi-OS supported

• Increased management complexity• The base OS is not managed or

protected• Reduced desktop performance

Reference CVD created from a reference PC

Base Image is extracted from reference CVD Base Image is applied to

designated CVD collections

The BI is downloaded via DDO to the endpoints

• Single-image management• BI changes are optimally downloaded to the endpoints

• Flexible user customization• BI updated without impacting user data or personalization• Users can install their own local apps without affecting BI integrity


DeskCache

Use Case: Centralize Troubleshooting

• Centralized troubleshooting• Full desktop instance in the data center booted on a local physical or

virtual machine• Improved productivity

• IT can centrally troubleshoot issues regardless of user’s location• The end-user can continue to be productive during troubleshooting

! Laptop1 is having problems

The IT admin re-assigns CVD1 to a centrally

located workbench PC

The end-user continues to work using DeskCache™

The IT admin resolves the issue and re-assigns

CVD1 to Laptop1The repaired CVD is

optimally downloaded to the endpoint


Use Case: Fast Endpoint Recovery

• Continuous desktop protection• Full desktop instance in the datacenter, making the endpoint disposable• Data is always protected, always backed-up

• Fast endpoint restore• Leverage DDO™ to optimally restore a desktop in minutes over the WAN

CVD1 DeskCache™

Working Set

!Laptop1 is experiencing hardware failure and is replaced with a new PC

The minimal working set is streamed so the end-user is

working again in minutes

Remaining data is optimally streamed in the background or on-demand

The end-user is productive again in minutes and the

full desktop is rapidly restored over the WAN


• Reduce desktop OPEX costs• Manage: Centralized single-image management, flexible user

customization• Support: Centralized troubleshooting, improved productivity• Protect: Continuous desktop protection, fast endpoint restore

• Reduce desktop CAPEX costs• Reduce servers costs with 200:1 server density• Reduce storage costs with Single Instance Store (SiS)

• Optimize the end-user experience• Mobility: Full offline support• Flexibility: Flexibility to install applications• Performance: Optimized performance over the WAN
