MED-V Trim. Transfer Image Delivery (only when using MED-V IIS-based image repository)

How to Update/Patch Virtual Images? Initial delivery Alt. I: update the “Master” image once and deliver image differences to endpoints Easy to manage User data and settings must be saved on the network Alt. II: connect to Active Directory domain and use standard software delivery Standard! (use WSUS, SCCM, etc)

announcing MED-V v 2 Roadmap

MED-V v 2 Extend client platform support Windows 7 (host/guest) and Windows Virtual PC 64 -bit (for Windows 7 and Vista hosts) Client support for additional localized OS Expand support for localized OS beyond European languages (Still English UI – MED-V client is not localized) Strengthen virtual Windows XP integration: New host/guest folder sharing method System Center integration Leverage existing Configuration Manager infrastructure to: Deliver virtual images through Config. Mgr distribution points Provision MED-V policies through Config. Mgr and enforce them using MED-V client without additional server infrastructure v 2 Beta is expected within 90 days of Windows 7 GA

V 2 – Leverage System Center Config Mgr MED-V Admin Console System Center Configuration Manager Export MED-V Admin Console Package Wizard Virtual Image (optional) Policy Deploy Packages Windows Client Workstation Config. Mgr Client MED-V Client Virtual PC

The Future of MED-V

Increase Desktop Computing Flexibility Mobile Contract/ Offshore Home non–company PC

Increase Desktop Computing Flexibility Deliver corporate-managed desktops to unmanaged PCs Enable work-at-home and increased mobility without a corporate laptop Drive business continuity and recovery plans with virtual desktops anywhere Increase productivity for contractors, offshore, branch offices

MED-V Customers Say… Belgacom Group – “MED-V saves us time in standardizing our desktop across the multiple entities of the Belgacom group…With thousands of users in our environment, MED-V will significantly reduce the time required for testing and migrating the applications we have. ” Belfast Health and Social Care Trust (22, 000 staffs)* - “We found that MED-V really solved our application compatibility problems. It allowed us to deploy the applications, where third party vendors were not providing a supported version. Where we used to have hundreds of images, we were able to move to one [Windows] Vista image, and use MED-V to deploy [legacy] applications on top of that” Large European teleco. (80, 000 employees)* - “We are really happy with MED-V. We can virtualize the applications that are made only for XP, and they work fine, with all the functionality intact” * Excerpt from EMA Brief: “Introduction to the Benefits of Local Desktop Virtualization”, April 2009
