VDI: Operational and stable

Posted by martijnl on July 4, 2007

Everything on the VDI project works as expected and we are in stable production at the moment.

There have been two problems in the past two months:

  • User complaining of slow screen refresh
    • This is inevitable because of the distance. We get 160ms latency and some slowdowns can be expected. It is nothing critical however and the advantages outweigh this minor issue. Maybe in the future we will try to optimize graphics performance so it takes up even less bandwidth.
  • Sudden packet loss on the connection
    • We are routing this connection over a trunk port on a Cisco switch to the external datacenter we have just moved to and we are expecting some kind of problem with this.
