The XenClient initiative has developed an architecture and roadmap for the Xen hypervisor to deliver powerful security, performance and manageability benefits to future virtualized client-side systems. The prevalence of Intel virtualization technologies on modern enterprise client devices heralds a sea change in the way that corporations will deliver desktops and applications to end systems, as well as opening up new use cases for centrally managed, secured and backed-up client devices that offer a rich, local computing environment to users.
In this session you will learn:
About the XenClient architecture
How you can provide a virtualized, high-performance environment for corporate applications without compromising security
Citrix and Intel have been working together to deliver a solution that builds on both companies expertise. The end-to-end solutions, application delivery, and virtualization software that Citrix provides combined with the manageability, performance, and security from vPro deliver a novel solution. The solution allow the IT OS build to go through a secure or trusted boot, where the hardware and software used to launch the OS is measured for integrity before the program executes. The OS can be streamed off a remote server, and the end-user gets the rich client side local execution experience.
In this video, Citrix Software's Paul Hahn, Director of Business Development / Virtualization & Management Division, and Matt Edwards, Product Manager, talk about how Citrix Systems is developing products for OS/App Streaming on top of Intel vPro technology. You will see that the virtualized, measured, and streamed OS is able to still render and rotate a rich CAD drawing.
