Bangkok--2 Dec--PR One Network
VMware, Inc. (NYSE: VMW), the global leader in virtualization solutions from the desktop through the datacenter and to the cloud, today announced broad ecosystem support of the Teradici PC-over-IP? (PCoIP?) protocol delivered in VMware View? 4, also announced today (see news release, “VMware Enables Rapid Adoption of Desktop Virtualization by Driving New Quality, Cost and Scalability Standards with VMware View ? 4”).
VMware View 4 is the industry’s only purpose-built desktop virtualization solution, setting a new quality, cost and scale standard while eliminating critical barriers that have traditionally restricted customer adoption. The VMware software implementation of the patented PCoIP protocol is a key feature of VMware View 4, raising the bar for delivering a rich, high-quality desktop experience to any user—from the basic task worker to the most demanding power user—regardless of location, addressing more use cases than ever before. With support for native VMware View software clients and PCoIP-enabled hardware from a variety of ecosystem partners, VMware View with PCoIP is specifically designed to provide customers the flexibility to deploy end-to-end solutions with a variety of end point options to meet the most diverse range of end user and business needs.
Unlike other legacy application delivery solutions, the robust PCoIP protocol in VMware View 4 is purpose-built for virtual desktop delivery over any network. The flexible access model enables users to work with a wide range of applications, view rich media content, choose any number of monitor configurations and seamlessly access locally attached peripheral devices such as printers, scanners and mass storage with a PC-like experience regardless of location or task. The protocol dynamically detects and adapts to the end user’s network connection, automatically analyzing and optimizing to compensate for changes in latency and bandwidth to help ensure the best user experience for the scenario.
“VMware prides itself on partnering with a robust ecosystem so that together we can enable the best desktop solutions based on our diverse customer needs,” said Jocelyn Goldfein, vice president and general manager, Desktop Business Unit, VMware. “With VMware View? 4, PC-over-IP, and strong support from the ecosystem, we’re expanding the reach of our solutions and addressing more use cases than ever before while delivering an optimal experience to end users.”
