If you're involved with desktop deployment or management, you know there's one obstacle to successfully consolidating client workloads onto servers: resistance from the desktop user.

There is a solution--the VMware and HP virtual desktop. Its centralized desktop management capabilities simplify software provisioning, upgrades, and patches, and enable backups without intervention, so you can better serve your users AND protect your systems.

Listen to this on-demand Webcast, featuring John Kennedy, Sr. Systems Engineer at VMware, and HP's Scott Harsany, Director, ISS Software R&D, to learn how the VMware and HP virtual desktop solution helps you can gain control of your systems by hosting individual desktops inside virtual machines running in the data center.

Moderated by James Hilliard, this TechRepublic Webcast highlights how the virtual desktop solution leverages VMware Infrastructure and HP ProLiant servers to allow corporate users to enjoy the benefits and personal control of a stand-alone desktop while reducing many of the challenges related to traditional, stand-alone desktop environments. These challenges can include:

  • Susceptibility to theft and viruses
  • Deployment of new users
  • Extended downtime during hard drive failures
  • Rebuilding preferences and settings after a client refresh
If you need to plan a desktop deployment or manage your desktops more efficiently, listen to this TechRepublic Webcast, co-sponsored by VMware and HP and now available on demand.
