VMware Accelerates Digital Workspace Transformation with New Application and Desktop Virtualization Offerings - Seite 2

New innovations in VMware Blast™ will deliver an improved end-user experience for digital workspace users. The new Blast Adaptive Transport technology will help maximize bandwidth utilization by dynamically adjusting to network conditions including varying speeds and severe packet loss to maintain a great user experience across network types -- from corporate LANs to public Wi-Fi to mobile networks. This will enable business critical applications to be delivered through Horizon without disruption to remote workers with 6x faster speed and fifty percent lower bandwidth utilization than before.³

VMware Horizon Cloud -- Expanding Use Cases for Desktops-as-a-Service on IBM Cloud

VMware and IBM continue to expand their partnership with the introduction of VMware Horizon Cloud, the next generation of virtual desktop and application cloud services from VMware. The new VMware Horizon Cloud service will deliver and manage virtual desktops and applications hosted on the IBM Cloud and on-premises using certified hyper-converged infrastructure to enable organizations to expand the use cases for desktops-as-a-service (DaaS). VMware Horizon Cloud takes advantage of the latest Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) technology running on the IBM Cloud which helps accelerate virtualized desktop applications, especially for computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM), including AutoCAD.

VMware Horizon Cloud delivers feature-rich enterprise Windows desktops and applications that are ideal for cloud adopters or specialized use cases such as seasonal workers. The solution enables customers to choose from several deployment models including on-premises BYO hyper-converged infrastructure, cloud-hosted infrastructure, or both. Operations and management are streamlined using a centralized cloud control plane and JMP technology that delivers time to value by reducing the time required to configure, deploy and manage enterprise desktops and applications.

Horizon Cloud also enables businesses without the required virtual desktop and application IT expertise to deliver a modern approach to end-user computing and move to an operating expense model with predictable subscription pricing and the ability to 'pay as you grow.' Businesses have the flexibility to move between deployment models and pair the service with the infrastructure of their choice using a single subscription license. In addition, Horizon Cloud can pair with VMware Workspace ONE and deliver business critical resources to end-users through a secure digital workspace.
