XENON Solutions


Traditional Lab Layout


Typical VDI Lab

• Server hardware from vendor A

• Storage hardware from vendor B

• Hypervisor from vendor C

• Thin client from vendor D

• End user device from vendor E

• Integrated by vendor F


VDI Lab based on Huawei FusionSphere

• Huawei End-to-end solution:

• Huawei Servers

• Huawei Storage Solutions

• Huawei Thin Clients

• Huawei FusionSphere VDI

software stack

• vGPU solutions based on NVIDIA

GRID technology

• Complete solution integrated

by a single partner:


VDI Benefits

• Flexibility

• Distribute and share CPU and GPU as needed

• Reconfigure in minutes for different labs

• Access from anywhere any time

• BYOD

• Security

• System security

• Data security

• Access control

• Total Cost of Ownership

• Centralised and simplified system,

configuration, and resource management

• Extended lifetime of the system (servers and

thin clients)

• Reliability and Environment

• Improved reliability and availability

• Fast recovery (restore/rebuild)

• Reduced power consumption

• Reduced environmental impact


Simplified TCO Comparison

1. Traditional Lab: PCs + Monitor + Windows license

2. Typical VDI lab: “Typical” Hypervisor + Management tools + VDI

software

Just license costs are almost comparable to a “Traditional Lab”

setup

Trade-off upfront cost with TCO due to reduced configuration,

maintenance, management needs over the lifetime of the solution

3. Huawei VDI software stack for 100 users thin clients, FusionAccess

software

Up to 70% cost reduction

4. Complete Huawei VDI solution for 100 users including servers, thin

clients, FusionAccess software stack

Up to 30% upfront cost reduction for the complete Huawei VDI

solution

Significant TCO savings over life of the solution due to:

• Reduced upfront capex

• Improved management efficiency reduces resource requirements

• Reduced power, cooling

• Improved reliability

• Flexible reconfiguration and redeployment to accommodate more

labs/users


Summary

A Huawei/NVIDIA/XENON VDI solution provides:

• Improved flexibility, security, and reliability

• Powerful enterprise grade security features:

• Memory/disk/network security, automatic

secure erase, fine grained permissions, ACLs

• HA configurations/redundancy: hardware

redundancy, VM migration

• Automatic fault diagnosis and recovery

• VDI solutions deployed on large scale (1000s of

desktops)

• Full vGPU support

• Upfront capex and further TCO savings of the

lifetime of the solution
