App-V in VDI

App-V simplyfies process in VDI deployments

Time to production for new servers drops dramatically

RDS CALs include the App-V license

Desired Enterprise Architecture


Multiple storage options

Use direct-attached storage, network-attached storage, and clustered or SAN storage

Leverage tiered storage to automatically optimize performance using SSD

Reduce storage cost by leveraging disk deduplication

Desired Enterprise Architecture (storage)


Storage options Sample configuration

Windows Server 2012 R2• Storage spaces

• Server Message Block 3.0 (SMB3) and Hyper-V SMB support

• Cluster storage volume

• Scale-out file server

• Online disk dedupe and tiered storage

VDI storage configuration• Direct-attached, central SMB, or

central CSV / SAN• Storage location of User Profile Disks,

parent virtual hard disk, and virtual machines can be configured separately for each collection

• Optimum use of high I/O operations per second versus high volume storage

Storage Pool Storage Pool Storage PoolBlock based storage
