Learn how to simplify your Windows 7 deployment, as well as move your desktop virtualization initiatives forward, during a hands-on lab experience presented by the desktop virtualization experts at Quest Software and Microsoft.

As you plan your migration to Microsoft’s Windows 7, you might discover issues with application compatibility, PC hardware refresh and running applications from non-Windows devices. These issues can make this move more costly and complex than you had expected.

This half-day workshop will introduce you to Quest vWorkspace and Microsoft’s virtualization suite. Our experienced instructors will describe the architectural details and features for both solutions, and then you can try the solutions out for yourself! You will learn best practices to help you efficiently deliver Windows 7, as well as deploy:

• Your own virtual server using Microsoft Hyper-V
• Virtual desktops using vWorkspace
• Virtual applications using Microsoft App-V
• Presentation virtualization using Microsoft RDSH
• Microsoft Office applications and more

We will also show you how to build Windows 2008 servers on Hyper-V, integrate LDAP and Active Directory servers, as well as integrate your back-end storage. You will be among the first to see how Quest EOP Xstream and RDP combine to accelerate virtual desktop displays and improve the user experience.

Don’t miss this unique opportunity to get instant answers to your most challenging Windows 7 migration questions from the desktop virtualization experts of Quest and Microsoft.
