I have a specific scenario though I did work on different ones never the less it should be a good starting point for an availability strategy based on different environments.įirst things First, the scenario I am going to touch base on and deploy is NOT supported by Microsoft in regards to profile/data folder replication handling, the reason being DFS-Replication is not capable of handling simultaneous writes to a replicated folder on both ends of the namespace thus causing sync/replication issues. Multi-Site High availability for VDI comes in different forms and flavors as it depends on many variables especially networking. Initial design planning for VDI availability between sites/regions should be well though off as Virtualization, Storage, Networking, and Security components tie together with a very specific configuration to provide an highly available environment with minimal downtime if none. This is where Multi-Site Active-Active or Active-Passive Disaster Recovery VDI infrastructure design and deploy comes to play.

The recent and rapid advancements in Technology (HCI, Cloud, Graphics, SDN, Endpoints, Automation, Security …), Pricing, and Workspace is now mature enough placing VDI in the frontier of business/IT demand. ![]() VMware Horizon 7 Multi-Site with Microsoft Azure GSLB Traffic Manager Introduction:įinally VDI “ Virtual Desktop Infrastructure” has taken off as it should have years ago making 2017 undisputedly the year of VDI. ![]() ![]() VMware Horizon 7 VDI Active-Active/Passive Multi-Site Disaster Recovery Part 2
