Mobility Brings New Challenges
Cost
 Too many apps ,too many devices
 Diversity = Complexity = Cost
Compliance
 Are consumer technologies compliant?
 Policy Violations = Increased Risk
Security
 Only 5% of devices use mobile security
 Low Adoption = Increased Risk

The Changing Landscape Can Enhance Horizon View
 The Software-defined Datacenter
• Automation and policies covering the full needs of compute, storage and
networking
 The Horizon Suite and supporting a Workspace beyond Windows
• VDI is an excellent way to turn the Windows workspace into a cloud service,
but there is a growing trend of workspaces not centered on windows
 Image Management
• Mirage provides unified image management for physical and virtual machines
with layers and easy user data persistence
 Desktop-as-a-Service and Multi-site capabilities
• Emerging needs of turning a VDI solution into a full-blown self-service model,
and handling the complex deployment topologies of very large deployments.
• Need to plug-in 3rd party components for portions of the architecture
