I agree with Brandon and would be interested in such as session. Personally, my role includes both traditional IDM technologies and VDI. From: activedir-owner@mail.activedir.org [mailto:activedir-owner@mail.activedir.org] On Behalf Of Brandon Shell Sent: Tuesday, March 09, 2010 7:07 PM To: activedir@mail.activedir.org Subject: Re: [ActiveDir] Quick poll for TEC 2010 session re: VDI I would attend and/or present this session. VDI is my day job and AD is just a thing I do on the side While I get point 1, clearly VDI is not an AD thing, I think that is short sighted approach. Point 2 seems like where things are headedΏ]. Actually I would go further on point 2 by adding that understanding how VDI plays with AD is critical to its (VDI) success. If AD guys want to get back into the light with upper management getting on board with the projects that can help their career drastically (read bonuses.) Ώ] Understanding that the large majority of companies out there are smaller and this may not apply to larger (20k+) companies.

The debate centers around whether VDI is a relevant or interesting topic for the TEC directory and identity audience. One side of the debate: The session isn't relevant because AD and identity engineers/architects aren't generally tasked with virtualization projects, and if they are, they are generally server and DC virtualization projects. Desktop projects don't usually land on the AD/Identity guys lap. The other side of the debate: AD and identity engineers/architects are becoming multi-roled in light of today's economics, and given virtualization's huge traction, VDI would be an interesting and relevant topic to the TEC directory and identity attendees. My questions to you: Would you be interested in attending a VDI session at TEC? See you in LA. -gil
