| | There seems to be some confusion about XenDesktop relating to where it can run the workstations. The name XenDesktop implies that it can only run with Xen but the truth is that it has been designed for running on other platforms as well. Specifically, it can run on individual workstations (without virtualization), blade servers (also without virtualization), and virtualization servers. The key message is that other VM providers can be supported as well. |
| | |
| | XenDesktop really is not about locking you into a particular solution but rather to give you flexibility to create an environment that you want and can support. |
| | |
| | The model is not radically new but it is new for Citrix to be embracing this model fully with an intent to have a full solution across the whole application delivery market (including desktop delivery). |
| | |
| | The key technology for enabling the remoting of workstations is codenamed "PortICA" and has now been in development for more than two years. PortICA allows Windows XP and Vista to be accessed remotely using standard ICA Clients and using standard Citrix infrastructure. The goal of PortICA has been to port elements of Presentation Server to a workstation and that goal is almost complete. |

| | | PortICA is a project based out of Advanced Products in Sydney, Australia. The team consists of six developers. I'm only mentioning this to convey how big things can come from small teams. The Advanced Products team in Sydney has produced a number of products and enhancements over the years including things like the Citrix Secure Gateway, Seamless support, SmartAuditor, AIE (App isolation), SpeedScreen (various flavours), ZL (Zero Latency), ICA Client Object, and Pictor. It is a solid team with diverse experience. The only limit the group has is based on not having enough people to tackle bigger or more projects.\\ |
