Successful Virtual Workspace Infrastructure

Successful Cisco VXI deployments are based on:

• Validated, tested, end-to-end solutions and system planning based on the Cisco VXI Validated Design. This comprehensive approach allows customers to move from traditional desktops and communications to virtual desktops and virtual workspaces.
• Voice and video-enabled virtual desktop thin clients that meet the productivity and collaboration needs of diverse workgroups and employees on any device, anywhere.
• Industry-leading data center infrastructure and compute platform (UCS) optimized for desktop virtualization
• Network optimization for superior virtual desktop, voice, and video delivery, alongside traditional traffic types
• Secure access to data center resources with user segmentation and context-aware policy enforcement at the virtual machine level
• Universal Power over Ethernet (UPOE) and Cisco EnergyWise for superior power management and cost savings
• Open ecosystem and broad partner portfolio of solutions including Citrix and VMware for greater choice
• End-to-end desktop virtualization services and support for faster deployment, reduced risk, and faster problem resolution
• Clear roadmap to a Unified Workspace that brings together the entire workforce across physical and virtual boundaries.
