SANTA CLARA, CA - Citrix Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: CTXS) today announced Citrix XenServer® has been awarded the Members Choice Award for Virtualization by The Code Project, one of the world’s largest online developer communities. The Code Project Annual Members Choice Awards highlight the best development products and tools as chosen by its community members, reflecting the perceptions of what developers value most.
“The Code Project Members Choice Awards reflect the diversity and depth of the tools available to professional developers around the world,” said Jeff Hadfield, President, The Code Project. “Our developer community has more than 7 million members and is the most visited Microsoft-focused developer site in the world. Their experience and expertise give them the insight to highlight the best products and tools in the industry, but also encourage continued innovation and excellence from vendors like Citrix.”
The openness and maturity of XenServer, as well as the accessibility of the free edition introduced last year, has driven enterprise organizations to leverage server virtualization for cost-effective datacenter automation and business continuity, as well as for the back-end host system of desktop virtualization deployments. Service providers - including some of the largest cloud providers in the world - have also discovered the value of XenServer as a foundational element for building out cloud services.
