New VDI bundles enable flexible, fast and cost-effective operation

Fujitsu has introduces a new solution that makes the move to a Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) easier for small and mid-size businesses. Fujitsus VDI bundles bypass complexity by providing all the hardware and software necessary for an easy transition from PC- and notebook-based workplaces.

Moving to VDI provides companies with savings both on hardware and IT operations, ensures that all business data is backed up on a central server and saves energy costs in comparison to a traditional PC-based network. Although VDI is proven, today many smaller companies are still holding back from adopting it, because they are afraid of the complexity.

Fujitsu is addressing this with its new VDI Bundles, meeting increasing demand from both channel partners and end customers for a simplified transition process to VDI. The Fujitsu VDI Bundles come in two sizes up to 42 workplaces, and up to 20 workplaces. Both include an optimized Fujitsu PRIMERGY TX200 S6 host server as well as a display, keyboard and mouse for managing the server. All software comes pre-installed and ready to run. Customers can then order the required number of Fujitsu Zero Client devices to match their VDI environment.

Future system expansion is also provided by ensuring that the host server has room to add further Fujitsu Zero Clients - up to the designated maximum number of workplaces.

Through VDI, end users gain greater flexibility, as they can log on to their personal desktop from any Fujitsu Zero Client workplace on a company network, and even remotely. Performance is the same as using a desktop PC or notebook, but the Fujitsu Zero Client integrated in a display generate far less noise and heat a welcome improvement to any busy office.

The Fujitsu Portable Zero Clients a plug-and-play USB device that allows existing desktops and notebooks to be used as VDI host nodes even provides a solution for companies that want to re-use old Windows-based PCs when moving to VDI.

VDI is particularly well suited to the needs of small and mid-size businesses, but often seen as too complex. New Fujitsu VDI Bundles address exactly that, making the switch as simple as possible by including all the VDI elements in a single package from the central server even through to the keyboards and mice, and the power and network cables, said Alok Sharma, Country Manager, Workplace Systems, Fujitsu India.
