Nexenta,
the global leader in Open Source-driven Software-Defined Storage
(OpenSDS), today announced that it will be present at Citrix
Synergy, the premier industry event on cloud computing,
collaboration, networking and virtualization solutions, taking place May
12-14, 2015 at the Orange County Convention Center, Orlando, Florida.
Nexenta experts, along with partners and customers will be at
Nexenta's booth #401 to demonstrate how the software defined approach is
revolutionizing the data center. Nexenta will be showcasing its latest
solution to be verified as Citrix Ready, NexentaConnect
for Citrix XenDesktop designed to manage data efficiently and cost
effectively.
NexentaConnect for Citrix XenDesktop provides virtual desktop
administrators with faster performance of their organization's desktops
on new or existing storage arrays. The solution reduces the cost per
workspace and the amount of storage required for a Citrix XenDesktop
deployment. Delivering greater density at a much lower price point, the
solution allows for real-time visibility and management of individual
desktop users using storage resources. The Nexenta solution addresses
the top three most common challenges customers identify when deploying
virtual desktops: performance, density and cost.
