Any degradation in user experience reflects negatively on IT. No matter how a desktop or application is delivered to a user, ensuring the environment reacts quickly to user actions is key to providing a smooth quality of service and meeting user expectation. Only by managing CPU, Memory and Disk by assigning resource to applications and users can a consistent level of performance be achieved.
Improved Quality of Service
Ensuring a consistent quality of service is key to gaining user acceptance when trialing a new application delivery mechanism. Unresponsive environments are a major pain and often lead to users rejecting a new system, making quality of service just as important as the overall hardware consolidation or desktop centralization project. For most organizations there is a continuous exchange between quality of service and reducing server hardware.
By allocating CPU, Memory and Disk resource to applications and users and optimizing how user actions are processed, AppSense Performance provides a smoother, more responsive application set and also reduces hardware count by improving server capacity.
Hardware Reduction / Server Consolidation
Many IT departments are being tasked with consolidating their existing server infrastructure, some to simply system management, some to reduce power consumption and their carbon footprint. Huge savings in power, cooling costs, hardware, software licensing and management can all be made by optimizing resource use and consolidating servers. Whether you plan to maximize user or application density, AppSense Performance Manager enables a huge increase in server capacity by reducing the amount of resource required to run desktops on applications within a datacenter.
For example, consolidating 100 physical servers by 40% could save more than 120,000 kWh each year, cutting over 50 tonnes of CO2 emissions. The financial savings alone often provide return on investment within the first year of implementing AppSense Performance Manager.
