BARCELONA, Spain--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Today, at Citrix Synergy™, the conference where cloud computing, networking and virtualization meet, Citrix showcased its personal, private and public cloud strategy, unveiling new technologies and partnerships that span multiple products and market segments. The announcements this week focused on enabling customers to:
- Empower end users with increasingly mobile workstyles at the personal cloud
- Transform traditional datacenters into more elastic and economical private clouds
- Connect to the growing array of public cloud services in the simplest way possible
- Build new cloud services the way the world’s most successful clouds are built
As the industry shifts from the PC Era to the Cloud Era, the role of IT is rapidly outgrowing its ability to own and manage all its own apps, infrastructure and devices. Consumerization is driving IT to deliver a mix of applications to a variety of user-owned devices. At the same time, corporate IT is under growing pressure to take advantage of a vast array of innovative and cost-efficient services from external cloud and hosting providers. Until now, those goals have been difficult to achieve without compromising security, manageability and user experience. At Synergy Barcelona, attendees will be learning practical, hands-on strategies for embracing the cloud from Citrix, its technology partners, and thousands of their peers.
As part of this strategy, Citrix unveiled seven key announcements at Synergy Barcelona:
- Citrix Unveils “Follow-Me-Data” Fabric to Enable the Personal Cloud
- Citrix CloudGateway Delivers End User Computing for the Cloud Era
- Citrix Unveils HDX Ready System-on-Chip Initiative
- Citrix Drives Down the Cost of Virtual Desktops
- Citrix Launches New SMB Business for Desktop Virtualization
- Citrix NetScaler CloudConnectors Extend Network Fabric to “Last Mile” Cloud Services
- New Citrix CloudPortal Turns Clouds into Profitable Businesses
