I haven't used it but we did review the product to support our XenApp 6.5 w/ PVS implementation. Their dedupe capabilities and IO efficiencies were definitely very compelling but we opted to invest in FusionIO as an infrastructure wide solution for high IO needs since their ioDrive and ioTurbine solutions will benefit not only our PVS environment but our entire vSphere environment.
With that said, I plan on reviewing Alantis on top of FusionIO if/when we start looking into VDI. At a certain capacity, the price per GB is lower than RAM and its easier to achieve greater densities on top of PCIe based flash. In addition you're easily able to show significant cost avoidance by further negating the need for shared storage. It's easy for me to see the cost savings by comparing the cost vs. expanding SSD within our Storage Arrays. - Sean On Mar 20, 2013, at 2:26 PM, James Rankin <[email protected]> wrote: > Anyone using Atlantis ILIO for delivering VDI (especially the persistent > variety)?
