Sessions
Desktop Virtualization Day – Successfully Deploying Desktop and Application Virtualization
Location: Room 1E13
Monday, October 18, 2010, 9:00 AM-4:30 PM
With the looming move to Windows 7, IT organizations are faced with how to manage the upgrade of every desktop and application in their company. Desktop and application virtualization hold the promise of solving this problem along with the many desktop management problems that have been plaguing IT for decades. But until recently, multiple barriers prevented widespread adoption of virtual desktop technologies, and in fact, many early desktop virtualization projects failed as a result. This workshop will discuss previous barriers, how they now have been eliminated and why 2010 is becoming the year for desktop virtualization. Learn about all the various options available today - from major virtualization vendors to emerging startups - and why one size does not fit all. Hear the latest about the available desktop and application virtualization technologies, how to assess user desktop requirements across your entire organization, and determine how to successfully select and implement the right technologies for your organization.
