Citrix, Intel Desktop Virtualization with Adaptive Orchestration
White Paper: Balancing Desktop Virtualization with Citrix HDX MediaStream* and Intel® CoreTM and Intel® CoreTM vProTM Processors
Balancing desktop virtualization with Citrix HDX MediaStream and Intel Core and Intel Core vPro processors
Abstract: Enterprise datacenters are increasingly interested in managed virtual desktop solutions. However, IT organizations face challenges in deploying efficient, centrally managed desktop environments while providing users the rich desktop experience that they are accustomed to today, particularly with regard to consuming and creating rich media content. Citrix HDX MediaStream*, through a process called “adaptive orchestration,” automatically senses intelligent clients and balances where rich media file types are processed. The result is a uniquely capable and truly optimized use of available computer resources that delivers high-density, centrally managed desktops and an uncompromising user experience when intelligent clients are present. With the combination of Citrix HDX and Intel®-powered intelligent clients and servers, this solution provides organizations with cost effective, highly efficient, optimized computing models for enterprise-scale desktop virtualization environments.
This document discusses the benefits of Citrix HDX MediaStream content delivery delivered from Intel® Xeon® processor-based servers to Intel® Core™ and Intel® Core™ vPro™ processor-based client endpoints, and cites specific performance benchmarks.
Introduction: Managing information technology often requires tradeoffs. Full-featured PCs, also known as intelligent clients, are flexible and powerful enough for the most demanding organizational workloads, including multimedia creation and playback. Thin clients, on the other hand, can initially appear to be inexpensive, but require an increased investment in datacenter real estate, powerful servers, and network capacity to support them. However, even with this investment, thin clients still lack the capabilities required for demanding multimedia applications and mobility that are found in intelligent clients.
