The Business Desktop PC is suspended over a Pi
Citrix HDX Ready Pi is about with a low-cost, high-performance end-user to interfere with the desktop PC industry computing device like no other. This sub- $ 89 device - when combined with Citrix XenDesktop virtual desktops and XenApp virtual applications -. Provides an ideal alternative to the traditional desktop PC refresh cycle for IT
The breakthrough price point was achieved through the use of the Raspberry Pi platform, the hardware costs to a minimum with innovative design was, high volumes and automated assembly (manufactured in the UK!), the high performance has driven achieved through the use of Citrix HDX system-on-chip to use (SoC) architecture client hardware for protocol decoding.
in other words allows the HDX SoC Receiver SDK unload the GPU Raspberry Pi and reaches the hardware acceleration with the SoC quad-core ARM processor. The optimized Citrix Receiver is embedded in a secure, locked-down Linux OS and also includes the full device management for firmware updates, remote configuration and DHCP for plug-Tagging and Deployment play. These devices are fully assembled and ready to order from our partners ViewSonic and Micro Center. HDX Ready thin clients Pi are pre-installed with all the necessary software to come up with a production case, flash memory, power supply, VESA mount option and are ready to implement in a matter of seconds by an IT administrator.
Citrix was together on this initiative with the Raspberry Pi Foundation, in order to optimize the user experience and make use of the low-cost platform. Here's what she had to say Eben Upton, CEO Raspberry Pi:
"Here at Raspberry Pi, drive the cost of computer hardware remains our greatest imperative as we look forward to connect Citrix, ViewSonic and Micro Center as they launch the Citrix HDX Ready Pi. This innovation is a low-cost user equipment for Citrix 'industry-leading virtual app and desktop technology. Citrix' reputation data to improve security, simplify iT -Management and providing a great experience users help barriers torn down to cost-effective to make high-performance computing VDI accessible to a whole new generation of users, that is exactly what Raspberry Pi strives to reach out. "
In the classic disruptive fashion, the Raspberry Pi already taken a significant share of the education PC market shipped more than 8 million units. With Citrix HDX Ready Optimized Pi, we expect that many other industries, to take over the platform, now that the "do it yourself" is destroyed barrier. This device does not take the place of a mobile laptop or a high functional thin client, but also for the hundreds of millions of desktop PCs the HDX Ready Pi with a XenApp backend is to vote for its compelling price and performance value, refresh before a standard PC.
This device is more than just a "Fast-cheap" PC alternative. Rather, the low cost of this device enables new business models. For example:
- The full stack costs of virtual desktops can now be justified on the basis of TCO benefits, not pay a premium for security and management benefits of VDI. This expands the number of users who can benefit from VDI from a subset to an entire organization.
- Citrix HDX Ready Pi may be, IT machines or stored on the e-mail distributed in office supply cabinets. Employees can get your HDX Ready Pi and be into an available display plug-and-up and in a few minutes. The management software can any HDX Ready Pi to identify the network to be configured to take control and automatically to the correct Citrix Storefront server for Instant Virtual App and Desktop Access Point. On-Boarding no longer means a new employee, a new PC order to wait a week, the picture of the PC, install applications, and so on. eliminate
- deskside support. The low cost makes it an appliance rip-and-replace that no mechanical hard drive has to fail to diagnose device problems wasted no data and no time. If there is ever a problem, replace the unit and drop it in a wastebasket.
- eliminate financial asset tracking. The low unit cost can an unactivated office costs for many businesses are contemplated thereby eliminating the overhead of asset tracking. Citrix HDX Ready Pi is particularly compelling to virtualize branch offices globally.
- Ask a take-home device for employee remote access. Without ability of the HDX Ready Pi can securely to employees for teleworking and occasional work from home (WFH). save
- are distributed pervasive computing devices in public places or an office campus or cache corporate data. The HDX Ready Pi has a Kensington lock slot, but it is so cost-effective and specifically for Citrix that physical security is not an issue.
The date for this device is perfect. Most organizations are planning Windows 10 migrations; Citrix Receiver optimized for the HDX Ready Pi and XenApp / XenDesktop to provide a real PC like experience, and Raspberry Pi has reached a breakthrough in hardware price / performance. We already use many early adopter customers piloting or the Raspberry Pi with Citrix. What was missing is a full-stack solution, reloaded and supports, ready for IT, but now HDX Ready Pi has all that and more.
Let us know what you think to test a few HDX Ready Pis now and start next month.
