SGI and VMware are
pleased to bring you a technology focused briefing on Virtualisation and
Virtual Desktop Infrastructure.
We invite you to join technical
consultants from both SGI and VMware to walk you through VMware’s
Virtualisation solutions, in particular VDI. This session is aimed to
give you an informed view of the benefits that virtualising server and

Whether you’re focused on
reducing overall IT operational costs, consolidating distributed server and
desktop resources or consolidating under utilised systems, you will have an

specialists from VMware and SGI. Alternatively, take advantage of the
