Solution
VDI
Deliver high-performance VDI at scale. Eliminate bootstorms and management complexity.
Fast, Always-On Desktop Experience
Eliminate bootstorm issues, ensuring smooth performance for standard and intensive design or dev desktops. Ensure high availability, keeping desktop services always online.
Reduce Costs
Support erasure coding for high-capacity nodes, significantly reducing desktop storage costs without compromising performance.
Simplify Management
A streamlined architecture cuts the time for desktop design, planning, and deployment without changing user habits. Up to 1000 desktops can be deployed within an hour.
Scale and Pay As You Grow
Linear online scale-out capability simplifies cost modeling and capacity planning. You can scale predictably as desktop demands grow.
Cost-Effective
Omnissa Horizon Deployment
Arcfra’s integration with Omnissa delivers high-performance Horizon support, cutting VDI storage costs by 61%1. It eliminates boot storms, boosts efficiency, and simplifies management with a unified console.
Substantial Cost Savings
Reduce VDI storage costs by 61% compared to VMware vSAN, without compromising performance.
High Performance Without Boot Storms
Distributed storage and converged architecture eliminate boot storm issues, ensuring consistent, reliable desktop experiences.
Fast Time-to-Value
Simplified deployment architecture allows businesses to get up and running quickly with reduced implementation time.
Streamlined Operations
A unified management console, combined with standard x86 servers and Ethernet switches, reduces operational complexity and overhead.
Scalable and Flexible Growth
The distributed architecture supports incremental scaling at the component or node level—pay only as you grow.
Robust Support for
Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops
In traditional architecture, storage is too centralized and unable to increase concurrency. Desktops only respond slower as the number grows. Arcfra’s integration with VMware vSphere allows you to run Citrix virtual apps and desktops easily. Its performance optimization can significantly improve your VDI experience.
Intelligent Cache Acceleration
Automatic data tiering efficiently manages hot and cold data. Cold data is seamlessly moved to HDD, while hot data stays in the cache layer, optimizing read/write performance and preventing boot storms.
Data Localization Access
Compute and storage are integrated more closely in the converged deployment. Data localization enables desktops to access nearby server data, shortening the I/O path, reducing storage access latency, and significantly enhancing the user experience.
Multi-Controller Architecture
Multiple controllers can enhance concurrent access and distribute I/O load. Each Arcfra server has a virtual storage controller, distributing desktop storage access across controllers for easy large-scale expansion.

Book a Demo >- The 61% storage cost savings is based on a storage software license cost comparison between Arcfra Enterprise Cloud Platform (AECP) VDI Essential Edition and VMware vSAN, calculated for a virtual desktop deployment of 500 concurrent users (CCU) targeting office workers VDI use cases. The comparison assumes 360TB of raw storage capacity and 560 CPU cores required for the deployment. Pricing and configurations are based on publicly available or estimated list prices as of Q2 2025. Actual results may vary depending on configuration, negotiated pricing, and infrastructure requirements.
