15. 15 Generating Load §  Methodology •  Conservatively build out Horizon WS building block •  Generate load to simulate peak usage §  Load Simulation Profile •  Each users uploads a file 20 times per hour •  Each file is 1MB in size •  Each file is shared with 10 users (10 endpoints sync for every upload) §  Saturation Criteria •  CPU is saturated when 65% utilized for Data, 45% for Gateway •  Ensure no CPU is saturated under load
16. 16 Compute Building Block §  Data Building Block – One VM supporting 1K data users §  Gateway Building Block – One VM supporting 2 data building blocks §  Each data and gateway building block requires •  6 vCPU’s •  32GB RAM §  1 gateway and 2 data building blocks per physical node with spare capacity (24 Cores & 128GB RAM per blade) §  Connector, configurator, manager VA’s negligible under data load – we are only looking at data compute requirements.
17. 17 Storage Building Block - Assumptions §  Quota: 25GB §  Average Quota Utilization: 5GB or 20% §  Version Overhead: 2x capacity utilization on average §  Metadata Overhead: 1% or 100MB/user (20KB/row) §  Content Index Overhead: 3% or 300MB/user §  50TB of blob NAS storage fits ~2500 users (mirrored) •  50TB / (5GB * 2) / 2 is 2500 users §  2TB of VMFS storage fits 2500 users (mirrored) •  2TB / 400MB / 2 is 2500 users §  Conservatively, 50TB of blob and 2TB of VMFS storage supports 2K users or 2 data building blocks Blob NAS Store VMFS Stores
18. 18 1K User Building Block with Cold Standby for HA §  Blades 50% utilized §  Storage 50% utilized §  2nd blade for cold standby §  N x N cluster is overkill 50TB NAS 2TB VMFS 2 Blade Servers gateway data configurator manager connector
19. 19 2K Users §  Spin up 1 more Data VM §  Blades 75% utilized §  Storage 100% utilized 2 Blade Servers 2TB VMFS gateway data configurator manager connector 50TB NAS
20. 20 10K User Environment with HA 5 x 50TB NAS Volumes 8 (6+2) Blade Servers (5 Data/Gateway pair, 1 Configurator/Manager/Connector) Each with 24 Cores & 128GB RAM 5 x 2TB VMFS LUN gateway data configurator manager connector
21. 21 What about DR Data Center 2 Data Center 1
22. 22 Summary §  We were able to scale 1000 users on single Data-VA. §  We achieved consolidation ratio of 1 Gateway-VA to 2 Data-VA per blade, supporting 2K users with heavy workload profile. §  Gateway-VA CPU utilization average at 40%. §  Data-VA CPU utilization average at 65%. §  Manager/Connector/Configurator CPU utilization average < 5%. §  Linear scalability to 10K users. §  Nutanix Horizon Workspace RA published: http://go.nutanix.com/ TechGuideNutanixHorizononNutanixReferenceArchitecture_LP.html
23. 23 Horizon Partner Solution NetApp
24. 24 Why NetApp? §  Allow more users with less storage using deduplication §  Non-disruptive operations §  Unique Backup and Recovery options §  Flexible deployment using unified protocols 24
25. 25 Joint Value Proposition ¡ VMware value – Secure, on-premise enterprise mobile access solution to enable “data access on any device, anywhere” § NetApp value – Infrastructure for scalable and cost-efficient deployments • Non-disruptive operations • 50+% storage efficiency with deduplication and compression • Simple, scalable VMFS & NFS based storage repositories • Backup and recovery with NetApp Snapshot and SnapMirror • Snap Creator plugin for backup & recovery

27. 27 Horizon Data – Storage Options VMFS VMware Hypervisor VMware Hypervisor .vmdk .vmdk mapping mapping SAN FC/FCoE/iSCSI RDM
28. 28 NetApp - Storage Options §  NetApp’s diverse offerings fit well with different Horizon components. §  Unified Protocols §  FlashCache, FlashPools, Flash Accel, FlashRay NetApp FAS (Unifed) iSCSI, FC and NFS FlashCache FlashPools FlashAccel FlashRay Config & Settings MySQL Lucene Index Document Viewing Meta Data Open LDAP Horizon Document Transformation Search VMDK RDM NAS File Store FlashCache FlashPools FlashAccel FlashRay NetApp FAS (Unifed) iSCSI, FC and NFS NetApp FAS (Unifed) iSCSI, FC and NFS
29. 29 NetApp – Storage Options (cont.) §  Horizon can use NFS for the blob via guest mount. FAS3170 FAS3170 FAS3170 FAS3170 Horizon Data VM = OS + App Horizon Data VM = OS + App
30. 30 NFS Client Mount Procedure §  mkdir -p /opt/zimbra/store2 §  chown zimbra:zimbra /opt/zimbra/store2 §  mount x.x.x.x:/vol/zimbra /opt/zimbra/store2 §  vi /etc/fstab •  x.x.x.x:/vol/zimbra /opt/zimbra/store2 nfs rw,sync,hard,intr 0 0 §  su – zimbra §  zmvolume -a -n store -t primaryMessage -p §  /opt/zimbra/store2 --compress false §  zmvolume –l §  zmvolume -sc -id $id
31. 31 NFS Limitations §  1. Customers who deploy Horizon Workspace will have to manage their existing shared data separately. §  2. Horizon Workspace can not operate as a proxy to existing shared data deployments. §  These limitations could change in future versions and integrations between VMware & NetApp (and other Partners)
32. 32 Storage Efficiency §  Post-process deduplication affords 50% or more storage savings §  Out-of-box results: 27% space saved after initial install; increases with larger working set. §  In the typical 1K user building block described above, because of NetApp’s dedupe, 250 user licenses (out of 1000) will paid by the amount of storage you don’t need to purchase. §  $3/GB x 50TB = $150,000 §  $150,000 x 50% = $75,000 §  Savings of $75,000 to use for 250 user licenses (at $300 each for Horizon Suite)
33. 33 Horizon Data Backup §  Goal: To provide data security & integrity at a level equal to that of your current file servers. §  Solution: Rapid & efficient snapshot-based backups at the VM and application level, with NetApp Snap Creator.

42. 42 Clustered ONTAP §  More customers trust Data ONTAP than any other storage operating system. §  Scale across protocols using the same management tools and feature set. §  Eliminate downtime, even during service upgrades, for business continuity. §  Deploy and redeploy resources as business and IT needs change.
