Why Now?

“76% of ENTERPRISES will be pursuing a PRIVATE CLOUD computing strategy by 2012.”- Thomas Bittman, “Private Cloud Computing: The New Virtualization”, Garnter Data Center Conference, 2010

MCPc Confidential

Virtualization leads to the CLOUD

There will be more Virtual Machines deployed during 2011 than all of 2001-2009 combined.

By 2012, the majority of workloads running on x86 architecture serversin enterprises will be running as Virtual Machines.

- Gartner, 2011, VMWare PEX

District School Board of Collier County

Located in southwest Florida, the district serves 44,000 students in 50 schools

Challenge: As distributed PC desktops and laptops jumped from 15,000 to 25,000 without an increase in IT staff, the District School Board of Collier County needed a new approach to desktop administration.

Solution: XenDesktop delivered 9,000 thin clients with streamed desktops, with another 8,000 due for rollout. 2,400 HP notebooks in mobile labs with hosted virtual desktop.

Results:• Cuts desktop management time in half• Delivers hosted virtual desktops 80 percent faster • Enhances the user experience with instant desktop availability and fast multimedia performance• Extends useful life of devices from three to five years

“We set our sights on technologies that would enable us to centrally manage and deliver desktop images. We evaluated a number of virtual desktop and desktop streaming solutions and found Citrix XenDesktop with provisioning services was the best.”

- Tom Petry, Director of Technology

Campbell Union High School District

Located in Silicon Valley, serving more than 7,600 students across seven campuses.

Challenge: Campbell Union High School District first explored desktop virtualization as a way to help bring down skyrocketing hardware and IT management costs.

Solution: Desktop virtualization with Citrix XenDesktop gives Campbell Union the ability to manage all desktops centrally in the datacenter. Applications are installed, upgraded and patched once, then securely delivered over the network to any device, including PCs, Macs, laptops, netbooks and thin clients.

Results:. • Savings on one year’s replacement cycle of $250,000. • Extending computer lifecycles by turning any old machine into a low-cost thin client. • Students have a rich, high-definition experience, even with older PCs and laptops.”

“Campbell Union is leading the way in demonstrating that virtual desktops can improve security, simplify management and save hundreds of thousands of dollars, all while improving student access to technology-based educational instruction. And when it comes to desktop virtualization, no solution on the market is more proven than XenDesktop.”

- Charles Kanavel, director of technology

Red Deer College

7,800 students, 13,000 continuing ed. students in Red Deer, Alberta

Looking to deliver content and applications to student body remotely

SolutionLeverage View to provide remote students with access to the same applications and the same experience as campus students to create a “classroom with borders”

Results- Projecting over $300K in savings in hardware costs in the first year alone- Streamlining 1700 images down to 30-40 images- Less disruption anticipated for planned migration to Windows 7- 24/7 access for student body from on campus and off.
