Liquidware Labs:

Who: Tyler "T-Rex" Rohrer, co-founder of Liquidware Labs; and Jason Langone, VMware vExpert, co-author of "VMware View 5 Desktop Virtualization Solutions," and Senior Territory Manager at Nutanix

Presentation Title: "What You Don't Know Could Kill Your Desktop Virtualization Project"

Where: Interop (News - Alert) Las Vegas, Mandalay Bay Convention Center-Lagoon H

When: Wednesday, May 9, 2:00-3:00 p.m. local Las Vegas time

Presentation Overview: Managing VDI projects may seem daunting, but it's integral to project success. This session explores what organizations must know to get VDI off on the right foot and avoid the pitfalls that could jeopardize the project:

• Runaway costs-how to avoid adding CAPEX and OPEX (News - Alert)
• Deadly IOPS-how to measure current input-output/second per user and per application
• Why storage sizing is so important
• Evaluating persistent vs. non-persistent desktops
• Best practices for user-authored data stores
• Ensuring a quality user environment

While desktop virtualization holds tremendous promise, the costs and complexities cause many organizations to put these projects on hold. Attendees of this session will return to their companies as heroes who can use state-of-the-art tools and expert kowledge to put their projects on the fast track to success with confidence.
