HotLink
Corporation today announced that its HotLink SuperVISOR for VMware has
been verified as Citrix Ready. The Citrix Ready program helps customers
identify third-party solutions that are recommended to enhance
virtualization, networking and cloud computing solutions from Citrix.
HotLink SuperVISOR for VMware completed a rigorous verification process
to ensure compatibility with Citrix XenServer, providing confidence in
joint solution compatibility. HotLink will demonstrate the HotLink
SuperVISOR for VMware in booth 617 at Citrix Synergy 2012 taking place
May 9-11 at Moscone West Convention Center, San Francisco.
The Citrix Ready program makes it easy for customers to identify
complementary products and solutions that can enhance Citrix
environments. Customers can be confident that HotLink SuperVISOR for
VMware has successfully passed a series of tests established by Citrix,
and can be trusted to work effectively with Citrix XenServer so VMware
vCenter users can now deploy and manage Citrix XenServer alongside
VMware vSphere.
HotLink SuperVISOR for VMware enables native interoperability of
hypervisors with extensions to VMware vCenter for unified management. In
this way, IT shops can tier virtual infrastructure based on application
affinity, economics or use case, while leveraging their existing virtual
infrastructure management and skill sets. Citrix XenServer is deployed
in many enterprises as part of a multiple hypervisor strategy, and with
HotLink users can easily manage their XenServer workloads inside their
existing VMware vCenter environment – no additional console is required.
Seamless cross-platform cloning, workload conversion and migration allow
administrators to manage a mixed hypervisor deployment as easily and
intuitively as a single virtual platform.
“As a member of the Citrix Ready program, we are able to offer customers
intelligent solutions that combine our HotLink SuperVISOR for VMware
with Citrix XenServer product,” said Lynn LeBlanc, HotLink CEO. “The
offering clearly demonstrates our plans to work closely with trusted
partners, through the Citrix Ready partner ecosystem, in order to
provide the highest quality experience for our customers.”
