Case Brief:
Company: Largest Big Box Retailer (name withheld)
Desktops: 6,000 virtual desktops moving towards 12,000
Product: Liquidware Labs Stratusphere
Using Stratusphere™ UX to monitor 6,000 virtual desktops – 3,000 running on ESX 3.5 and 3,000 on VMware View 4. They have had many challenges with user experience and performance of virtual desktops with no tool to identify, troubleshoot, and resolve issues that occur in large scale VDI implementation. They tested Stratusphere™ in a live proof of concept and were very impressed at the level of visibility provided across the VDI stack i.e. what is happening inside the desktop, on the network, in the host, and in the storage in a single pane of glass. They were also very impressed at being able to drill down to a single user/desktop/application/host/LUNS and correlate metrics from different areas that no other product/tool can do and understood in VDI everything is interrelated and tightly coupled. Also, they started transitioning developers first who need more resources than any other user group. So they will now use Stratusphere™ FIT to understand requirements of physical desktops & profile users and applications so that they can better design virtual infrastructure based on hard metrics which Stratusphere™ FIT provides than going about the ad-hoc design approach they used earlier. They understand that using Stratusphere™ and its methodology through Assessment, Migration and Monitoring truly provides the baseline needed for success in the VDI. |
