VDI performance comparison: Cisco UCS solution vs. HP solution
WHAT WE FOUND
Figure 2 compares the average response times for the Cisco UCS solution and the HP solution, and
Figure 3 compares the VSI Index averages for the Cisco UCS solution and HP solution. For both charts, lower
response times are better, while greater virtual desktop sessions are better.
