The combination of Citrix XenDesktop running on Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 with Hyper-V hosted on an Intel Xeon processor 5600 or 7500 series-based server is producing breakthrough results for desktop virtualization. These platforms make large-scale deployments of virtualized Windows 7 desktops simpler, faster, and cheaper. The combination of these three elements radically increases virtual desktop density, which enables the delivery of more virtual desktops per server and thereby reduces TCO — helping you to do more with less.
Citrix HDX MediaStream, through a process called adaptive orchestration, automatically senses intelligent clients and balances where rich media file types are processed. The result is a uniquely capable and truly optimized use of available computer resources that delivers high-density, centrally managed desktops and an uncompromising user experience when intelligent clients are present. With the combination of Citrix HDX and Intel-powered intelligent clients and servers, this solution provides organizations with cost effective, highly efficient, optimized computing models for enterprise-scale desktop virtualization environments.
Citrix XenDesktop, deployed in conjunction with Intel’s 3rd Generation Core vPro processors, delivers uncompromised IT centralized manageability and end user experience. This combination provides users with a full desktop PC experience and IT with simple, secure remote desktop management and hardware-based security, resulting in reduced TCO. Together, Citrix and Intel provide a robust desktop and PC management solution.
