I have a client who is trying to do a pilot of VMware horizon 5.3. They are using Wyse thin clients to connect to view. They are having some major performance issues with Adobe creative suite version 6 (photo shop and premier). The pilot hardware is 3 Dell PowerEdge R 720 servers with a Dell Equallogic 10 GB iSCSI SAN with 15k SAS drives. This hardware is dedicated to VDI and the total number of desktops will be under 75.
My question is this- Will this even work for applications like Adobe Creative suite. The client is going to buy new hardware to for the production VDI infrastructure. This is for a school district so I doubt they can afford to go all flash storage. Any recommendations on integration with VMware horizon and Adobe Creative Suite?
Thanks
