Quest vWorkspace Integration and Scalability with Microsoft Hyper-V and System Center Virtual Machine Manager

The goal of this study is to validate the scalability of a virtual desktop infrastructure built on Quest vWorkspace and Microsoft Hyper-V, integrating with Microsoft System Center Virtual Machine Manager to automate management and provisioning of Windows 7 virtual desktops. The tests and simulations focus on how the end-to-end solution scales under high load.

In June 2010, Quest completed this study at the Enterprise Engineering Center, Microsoft’s premier customer-facing product validation facility. This report focuses on scalability and integration of the system components.
