VIRTUMANIA  Episode 7 features a VDI discussion with J. Tyler Rohrer. Greg substitutes for Marc as my co host again, and the Prince of Pella, Sean Clark, returns for more of the mayhem. The following is the podcast summary:

VIRTUMANIA Podcast Episode 7 – VDI Plumber Crack. Hosted by Rich Brambley (@rbrambley) of VMETC. Greg Knieriemen (@knieriemen) of Chi Corporation replaces Marc Farley (@3parfarley) of 3Par and StorageRap.com as this week’s episode Co Host. Our “other regular” guest Sean Clark (@vseanclark) of www.vmunderground.com is back to talk VDI with special guest Tyler Rohrer (@t_rex_vdi), COO of Liquidware Labs. The focus of this epsiode is virtual desktop assessment, design, planning, implementation, and migration. The topics range from Liquidware Labs’ Stratusphere tool, generic thoughts on what is VDI, ideas about factors impacting mass adoption, discussion about Microsoft’s recent licensing changes, to details about I/O performance based on types of disks and storage protocols. We even throw in some talk about the iPad just to be trendy! Thanks to Greg Knieriemen for this Infosmack Production.

Join us for some great laughs while discussing the serious topic of virtual desktop infrastructure.

Disclaimer: All references to plumbers, plumbing, hot dogs, fanny packs, and Budweiser are virtual.
