Healthcare Heartbeat: Episode 3

Rethinking Virtualization and VDI in Healthcare IT

In this episode of Healthcare Heartbeat, EchoStor’s Mike Hale and Tanner Crowe break down the current state of virtualization and VDI in healthcare environments—what’s changing, what’s working, and where IT teams need to adapt.

With pressure mounting from Broadcom’s VMware licensing changes, many organizations are reassessing their hypervisor strategies and exploring alternatives like Nutanix AHV, Citrix Hypervisor, or even bare metal. Mike and Tanner share field-tested insights on sizing considerations, performance optimization, user profile storage, and the critical impact of login times on provider workflows.

Watch the episode to learn how your healthcare IT team can build a more efficient, scalable, and frustration-free VDI environment—without compromising performance or patient care.
