In NComputing, a provider of end-to-end desktop virtualization solutions, claims it has achieved a breakthrough in the performance and economics of VDI (Virtual Desktop Infrastructure) with the release of vSpace Server 6.5 desktop virtualization software.
vSpace Server 6.5 delivers a host of industry firsts including the ability to support up to 100 users on a single operating system, reduce the number of physical host servers by 75%, and improve configuration and management of VDI environments.
The user density breakthrough in vSpace Server 6.5 delivers a three-fold increase in the number of virtual desktop sessions that can be hosted on a single OS compared to previous versions. It also allows IT and network managers to significantly reduce the number of hardware hosts, OSs and VMs needed in virtual desktop architecture thus delivering the most affordable based VDI solution per seat on the market.
According to Will Poole, Co-Chairman, NComputing, Inc., VDI deployments have been held back due to cost and management complexity. We have addressed these issues with vSpace 6.5. Our customers asked us for simple, powerful, scalable, and green solutions, and weve delivered with the best economics in the industry.
Additional features available through NComputing vSpace Server 6.5 include:
Automated Deployment: Thousands of virtual desktops can now be configured and deployed in hours rather than days or weeks. A create once; replicate multiple times feature uses the configuration profile of one access device to automate all other access device configurations in the environment.
Enhanced IT Support: IT managers can now remotely view as well as control user sessions via a Remote Session Control feature that can be deployed on a permission or no-permission basis. Trouble tickets can be resolved easily and quickly, a win-win for the user and IT support staff.
More of the PC experience users expect: Enhanced audio quality and support for compatible microphones makes running multimedia applications such as Skype even easier and more enjoyable.
Windows 7 32 bit support: NComputing delivers the broadest platform support of any desktop virtualization vendor including Windows Server 2008 R2/2003, Windows Multi-Point Server 2011/10, Windows 7 64/32 bit, Windows XP, and Ubuntu 10.04.
