The term "desktop virtualization" has yet to hit the market in the way that other lesser technologies have. Nevertheless, its impact is becoming prevalent throughout the working sector. In DeMystifying the Virtual Desktop, Michael Fox clearly outlines how to begin with the design of a desktop virtualization solution. Design analysis is a vital step to implementing virtual desktops and is made up of two primary functions: assessment analysis and design analysis.
Assessment analysis, in layman terms, is where the assessment information (gathered from the desktop assessment phase) is reviewed and verified. The assessment analysis will then lead into design analysis, which is the essential component as it examines design requirements, configurations, and costs.
To reiterate, the desktop assessment leads to the assessment analysis, and data from this analysis progresses into design analysis. Michael Fox describes design analysis as "a physical set of documents and spreadsheets representing the information you are working with." Furthermore, he lays out a step-by-step method for design analysis:
Step 1: Summarize assessment information.
Step 2: Create Requirements Documents (this will produce data on project requirements)
Step 3: Describing the solution (with the user in mind) in the Design Documents
Step 4: Cost Model Spreadsheet (allows designers to refine their model/design and link together the assessment data and the Requirements and Design Documents).
Ultimately, there must be a design analysis prior to initiating a pilot, which would eventually translate into full production using the desktop virtualization technology. To give readers an idea of the intricacy of Design Analysis, each subsection in the steps laid out below can be broken down even further. For example, the Requirements Documents consist of "Business Process Impact Analysis," "End-User Scenario Analysis" and the "Requirements Documents."
