Description
CERN has a successful experience with running Server Self Service Center
(S3C) for virtual server provisioning which is based on Microsoft Virtual
Server 2005. With the introduction of Window Server 2008 and its built-in hypervisor based virtualization (Hyper-V) there are new possibilities for the expansion of the current service.
Observing a growing industry trend of provisioning Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) we try to gather the ideas of how desktop
infrastructure could take advantage of thin client technology combined with virtual desktops hosted by the Hyper-V infrastructure.
The talk will cover our experience of running Server Self Service Centre,
steps for the migration to the Hyper-V based infrastructure and Virtual Desktop
Infrastructure implementation.
