  Following up from our previous posts (here & here) and our presentation at VMworld 2011 in Las Vegas discussing VMware View 5, we are pleased to announce the availability of our VMware View 5 Performance and Best Practices white paper.
This paper highlights;
- Optimizations to the View PCoIP protocol that deliver bandwidth savings of up to 75% and improved consolidation ratios of up to 30%
 - Optimizations to VMware vSphere 5 that benefit VDI deployments
 - Performance comparisons with View 4.5, Microsoft RDP and Citrix XenDesktop
 - Best practices & tunables on the platform, guest, PCoIP protocol & network, illustrating how users can optimally configure their View deployments
 
The full white paper can be found here. Check-it out and let us know what you think.
