Windows 7 Migration and VDI – TBL’s June Lunch and Learn Summary

By Steve Glissman | Jun 16, 2011 | Insights

Harley Stagner led off TBL’s Lunch and Learn series with a discussion on virtual desktop infrastructure and how it relates to Windows 7 migration.  As TBL Networks’ lead virtualization engineer (and only VCDX in Virginia)  Harley arrived at the events in Richmond and Virginia Beach armed with a whiteboard, laptop and the promise (which he kept) of no PowerPoint!

Harley began by reviewing the three distinct components of the desktop – the OS, applications and user data.  From there, he discussed how operational efficiencies can be gained by separating these individual components in a virtual desktop environment.  Finally, Harley provided a live demo of entitling VMware ThinApp packages to a desktop pool using VMware View 4.6.
