desktops using only server CPU and RAM, with no storage. The software performs I/O traffic
processing, compression and inline
deduplication of images to run desktops from local server memory.
“[We decided] to take a new approach, running VMware View desktops with Atlantis ILIO on Cisco UCS servers without storage. All user profiles are kept on highly available EMC shared storage,” said Chris Hewertson, CIO of European managed service provider (MSP) Colt Technology Services. He said that Atlantis Computing’s product simplified his company’s VMware View environment by reducing operational complexity and that it reduced the cost per desktop.
