360is brings VDi technology to Cambridge science and engineering company

Do you think that Virtualisation/VDi is not for challenging high end applications used by demanding scientific or engineering users? Cambridge Display Technology, with several offices around Cambridge, is an ideal example of how VDi can be successfully deployed.

Cambridge Display Technology is a UK-founded company that is leading the development of display technology based on polymer organic light emitting diodes. Their technology is used in mobile devices, screens and lighting. The company employs hundreds of scientists, engineers, and supporting staff around the world.

The company needed a high performance desktop virtualisation solution that would make supporting a distributed workforce easier. Constraints were space, power, CAPEX and a lack of availability of shared storage. End users were running a mixture of office automation and high end scientific applications.

360is have designed and successfully deployed a full VDi platform with very high performance and full capability not only for vanilla office users but the large number of scientific/engineering staff who use resource hungry bespoke applications.
