VDIBlock G2 Desktop Virtualization

A Cost Efficiency, High-Density and High-Performance Appliance

VDIBlock G2 is a cutting-edge Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) appliance suitable for office application workloads. Powered by VMware virtualization software, VDIBlock G2 uses high-density and high-performance multi-node QCT servers to resolve VDI-specific delay issues and greatly increase IOPS. VDIBlock G2’s design is unique in that it encompasses an embedded switch and optimized internal storage to dramatically reduce capital expenditure. The nature of the solution’s physically isolated multi-nodes limits the risk of system corruption and supports business continuity. Furthermore, the building-block design features a flexible, scale-out approach at a lower cost and provides ease of system management. VDIBlock G2 is an exceptional product offering a superior user experience while reducing interruption risk and cost.

Simplified Management With All-in-One Appliance

VDIBlock G2 is a 3U nine-node appliance with compute, networking, and storage resources managed from a single pane of glass.Three nodes in a 1U space increases the density and save 50 percent more server space than the 1U two node server. The embedded switch and hyper-convergence architecture greatly reduce the OPEX and simplify system implementation and management.

Efficient Risk Management

Unlike traditional servers, one node failure on the VDIBlock G2 does not cause failure on other nodes which can lead to services interruption.If one node fails, users can continue working with the other eight nodes by leveraging VMware VirtualSAN™ technology.

Easy Scale Out

IT technicians have to manage all independent equipment in typical VDI architecture, including multiple sever and individual storage devices and switches.VDIBlock G2 can scale out by simply increasing the number of appliances and making the approach more flexible at a lower cost.

Trusted Core Technologies

A 3U nine-node VDIBlock G2 appliance powered by pre-installed VMware Horizon View has the capability to support 100 users. By coupling QCT hardware capabilities with Intel Xeon processors and leading virtualization software from VMware, VDIBlock G2 is an optimal base for VDI implementation. Getting started is a simple process that can be completed in just a few steps.
