The Lab - Liquidware Labs Company Newshttp://liquidwarelabs.com/rss/Liquidware Labs, Alpharetta, GAEnglishLiquidware Labs - From VDI ‘On-Ramp’ to the Desktop Transformation Superhighway http://www.dabcc.com/article.aspx?id=19379Tue, 21 Feb 2012 15:24:20 CSTLiquidware Labs first became known for Stratusphere FIT, an extremely sophisticated assessment tool, which automated the ridiculously complicated task of inventorying and measuring all the physical desktops in a company. Not only can it capture all of this critical data, but it also analyzes it to provide you with a “Composite” rating called VDI FIT that literally provides a fitness rating for each desktop and user so that you know if they are a good candidate (or a bad one) for migration to virtual desktops. (Just an aside: this same assessment data can also give you an extremely accurate picture of your current PC landscape to prep for a physical-to-physical upgrade to Windows 7.)www.ballblog.net: Liquidware Labs - ProfileUnityhttp://www.ballblog.net/2012/02/liquidware-labs-profileunity.htmlMon, 20 Feb 2012 10:33:18 CSTOne of the biggest challenges when migrating from XenApp 4.5/5 on Windows Server 2003 to XenApp 5/6/6.5 on Windows Server 2008/2008R2 can be to transition the user from V1 to V2 profiles. Perhaps this is not as big an issue if you use mandatory profiles that the user cannot change, but for the majority of the installations I have seen, either roaming or a flexible/hybrid profile model is in use, hence, how can the user profile data be migrated to the V2 profile model? What if the XenApp 4.5 and XenApp 6.5 farms will co-exist for some measure of time and you want users to be able to login to both farms without their profiles corrupting?Liquidware Labs President and COO Chris Akerberg Named to CRN’s 2012 Channel Chiefshttp://www.liquidwarelabs.com/company/pr_02202012.aspMon, 20 Feb 2012 10:00:15 CSTAkerberg’s successful track record of developing channel businesses in the virtualization market led to his inclusion in elite listLiquidware Labs Announces Key Channel Program Enhancements at VMware Partner Exchange 2012 in Las Vegashttp://www.liquidwarelabs.com/company/pr_02142012.aspTue, 14 Feb 2012 08:02:32 CSTNewly launched Knowledge Series enriches partner expertise while AutoPilot™ PSO License Kit expands partner role in VDI projects beyond assessmentsAPAC Virtualization Roundtablehttp://www.talkshoe.com/talkshoe/web/audioPop.jsp?episodeId=587434&cmd=apopThu, 09 Feb 2012 10:30:00 CSTEPISODE48 - APAC Virtualization Roundtable - Deskt...
