Cisco Solutions for VMware View 4 – Design Guide
Hey folks,
Yes, I have fallen off the planet. I have been so engulfed in lab work, architecture specifications and speaking engagements that I have had zero time for anything else. I almost forgot I had a blog.
I recently posted a Cisco Validated Design (CVD) for VMware View 4. This is a comprehensive guide for what Cisco can offer to those who are planning, deploying or have deployed a VMware View 4.o environment.
This effort is what I call a “phase 1″ effort. Which is a focus on immediately offering a better user experience via WAN optimization via Cisco WAAS and WAAS Mobile, server load balancing (SLB) and SSL offload via Cisco ACE, basic perimeter protection via Cisco ASA, virtualized network access via Cisco Nexus 1000v and finally, basic QoS.
Phase 2 and beyond will include all kinds of stuff to include more comprehensive security for the View Agent, View Client and network security. Other stuff will be included over time.
Take a look at the guide. It is viewable online and via PDF (far right hand side).
