In case you missed it, there's a brief video up on Citrix TV in which Thomas Nikl of our Advanced Solutions Group shows the latest iteration of project Prism (which you may remember as the 3D Accelerated Bitmap Remoting subproject of Apollo/HDX). Prism is an enhancement to HDX 3D for XenDesktop focused on delivering high-end professional graphics applications (e.g. CAD, CAM, GIS) to remote users. Prism leverages GPU hardware on the host (typically a blade or rack mount workstation) to render the OpenGL or DirectX graphics, then uses advanced compression technology to deliver the resulting images over a standard DSL or equivalent Internet connection. Look closely and you'll notice that this recent build supports Windows XP virtual desktops (whereas my previous post on this topic showed a Vista desktop).

had the pleasure to see your presentation in Anvers at the Iforum Benelux. I'm interested in the HDX prism because we are searching remote solution for Co workers in Brazil and others countries on Catia V5.
Already on beta download ? have availability date ?
We have tested the pictor project so we want to compare to HDX prism.
How HDX is doing on xenapp server W2008 ?
Thanks for comment

Our Prism technology for XenDesktop is the perfect solution for delivering CATIA to remote workers. Prism can support bandwidths as low as 1 Mbps and latencies as high as 150 ms, while providing GPU hardware acceleration for both OpenGL and DirectX applications.

I am working on a project at present and need to provide access via either XenAPP or XenDesktop for 2D (Bentley MicroStation) and 3D (SolidWorks) to users across the WAN. I first looked at Apollo when i was working for a Bank over a year ago and would be very interested in knowing when Prism will actually be available and also a little more on the GPU hardware architecture...
Many Thanks
Steve
