NEW DELHI, Oct 22: Citrix Synergy, the place where mobile workstyles and cloud services meet, today announced a new collaboration with partners that will deliver Design Engineer Virtual Workstation solutions to meet the growing demand for secure anytime, anywhere access to 3D design applications.
These solutions will leverage the market-leading Citrix XenDesktop and Citrix XenApp with Citrix HDX 3D technology to optimise and deliver graphics-intensive applicaions to any location over any network conditions.
In an increasingly global economy, companies are looking to improve time-to-market by collaborating and managing design lifecycles with remote and mobile employees and contractors, regardless of where they are located, while maintaining secure control over intellectual property. Desktop virtualisation allows these companies to address these dual goals.
For a design engineer virtual workstation solution to be successful, high performance and rich image quality over any network condition is crucial. Citrix addresses these needs with a full range of solutions to deliver both high-end 3D graphics and lighter 3D and 2D apps, while optimising costs.
High Performance for 3D Graphics—Citrix desktop virtualization solutions provide three options for the acceleration of 3D graphics ranging from hardware acceleration through sharing of GPU resources with XenApp to the high-performance option of dedicated GPU usage with XenDesktop.In addition, XenDesktop with the HDX 3D Pro add-on provides advancements in deep compression to improve network bandwidth utilisation. Accelerate deployments—Design Engineer Virtual Workstation solutions will include reference architectures and certifications to accelerate planning and implementation, eliminating guesswork when delivering high-end 3D graphics apps to professional designers and engineers in virtual desktop and application environments.
Broad Citrix Ready Partner Ecosystem – In support of this initiative, Citrix is engaging an ecosystem of partners to collaborate in a new Citrix Ready verification programme for HDX 3D. This includes system vendors, graphics card hardware providers, professional graphics software, systems and graphics card hardware providers and systems integrators.
These partners will collaborate with Citrix to deliver reference designs and best practice guidelines that accelerate planning and implementation to deliver predictable performance. (UNI)
