Leostream announced that it
has joined the Nutanix Elevate Technology Alliance Partner Program. The
company's connection management platform for remote desktops
received Nutanix Ready AHV Validation to enable organizations to
accelerate hosted desktop deployments and build highly scalable,
performant and automated environments.
Joint
customers such as Antelope Valley College are already using Leostream to manage
connections to virtual machines on the Nutanix Cloud
Platform and are experiencing the following benefits:
- Easy and
rapid management for the IT staff
- Granular
control over remote desktop sessions
- Numerous
options for securing the hosted desktop environment
"Our
IT team has anxiously awaited the integration between Nutanix and Leostream,
because it keeps our backend system simple while providing more oversight into
how we manage end-user connections," says Mike Dioquino, IT Operation Director
of Antelope Valley. "It's a powerful combination that breaks down a lot of the
complexity barriers when centrally hosting resources. It gives us significant
flexibility and ways to support our end users - no matter where they are
logging in from or from what device."
The hyperconverged
infrastructure (HCI) powered Nutanix Cloud
Platform, alongside Leostream for managing remote desktop
sessions, allows organizations to minimize the costs and complexity
associated with traditional Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI).
Rather
than procuring compute, network, and storage resources separately, Nutanix
combines the virtualization components into a single platform saving
upfront time and expense. Together, with the Leostream Platform, the industry's
most widely utilized vendor independent remote desktop connection management
solution, enterprises can integrate the complex array of clients, hosting
platforms, guest operating systems, and display protocols required for
successful VDI, hosted desktop, and application deployments.
"We
are pleased to have completed our Nutanix Ready Validation. Our collaboration
with Nutanix is aimed squarely at enterprises and large organizations looking
to harness the power of HCI to build a secure hosted desktop environment that
is easy to monitor, manage, and scale," comments Karen Gondoly, Leostream CEO.
The
Leostream Platform is uniquely customizable and offers a range of functionality
for provisioning desktops, setting access control policies, monitoring
connections and optimizing resource allocation - everything an IT administrator
needs to efficiently manage a high volume of remote desktop connections.
Leostream
also received the Nutanix Ready AHV validation, which is awarded to
products and solutions that have been tested and verified to work on or with
AHV, the Nutanix built-in hypervisor.
