ENHANCED ATTACHABLE WRITABLE VOLUMES IN VDI BASED ON DATA REQUIREMENTS

Abstract:

Systems and methods are described for efficient ways to manage storage of data in virtual desktops on writable volumes contained in attachable virtual disks. Multiple writeable volumes can be attached to a user's virtual desktop and data writes on the virtual desktop can be allocated among the writeable volumes based on preset policies or criteria, allowing the storage of different types of data in different writable volumes located on different storage devices.
