VDI Infrastructure Refresh: Modernizing Legacy Environments for Automotive Finance
Refreshed a legacy VMware Horizon VDI environment using vSAN and F5 technologies for a major automotive finance client.
Executive summary
Led the architecture of a virtual desktop infrastructure refresh for an automotive finance client – from high-level assessment and solution proposal through implementation oversight.
The challenge
The client was running a legacy VDI version that posed security risks and lacked the scalability required by modern remote-work demands.
The solution
As the Client Enterprise Architect, I designed a high-level architecture for a new dedicated VMware farm. The solution used vSAN for high-performance storage and F5 load balancers to ensure high availability and seamless traffic management.
My role
- Prepared the high-level design (HLD) of the existing and proposed solutions.
- Led a multi-domain team of infrastructure architects during the proposal phase.
- Supervised the technical implementation and ensured alignment with business targets.
