Join Dell and VMware to learn about the new capabilities of vSphere 4.1 and how the new EqualLogic 5.0 firmware makes deploying Tier 1 Apps and virtual desktops more efficient.
A standing issue since the release of VMware’s ESX 4.0 (vSphere) is that VMware’s own desktop virtualization product, View (formally VDI), is not yet compatible with it. That is you cannot create VMware View VMs on vSphere hosts. Furthermore, the only hypervisor you CAN use with VMware View is ESX 3.x.
Citrix’s XenDesktop, on the other hand, was designed from the beginning to be hypervisor agnostic. It runs on Hyper-V, XenServer, and ESX, INCLUDING vSphere!
This summer Citrix released an update to Pool Management that added support for vSphere and earlier this month released an update fixing some issues.
