New Hive-IO Release Runs Citrix XenDesktop for Superior User Experience, Simplified Management, and Easier Implementation

NEW YORK and SAN FRANCISCO, May 24, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Hive-IO, a leader in software-defined infrastructure, today announced that its latest release, version 6.9, provides a complete, fully supported solution for XenDesktop application and desktop virtualization that enhances enterprise security, enables workforce mobility, and lowers the cost and complexity of application, desktop, and infrastructure management.

"VDI initiatives have gained a reputation for being costly, time-consuming, difficult to architect, and, worst of all, prone to failure," explained Joe Makoid, CEO and Co-Founder, Hive-IO. "With the ability to run XenDesktop on Hive-IO's hyperconverged infrastructure, many of the common pain points are alleviated, while giving business owners confidence that their end-users will experience superior performance."

Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) can offer excellent operational benefits. While the advantages of VDI are well-known, there are challenges to overcome in a cost-effective manner that ensure an excellent end-user experience. Hive-IO's hyperconverged infrastructure solves these challenges by eliminating the redundant IOPS that plague VDI environments, eliminating silos of data management, and utilizing built-in data protection and mobility.

The advantages of running Citrix XenDesktop on Hive-IO include:

• 2x Application Response provided by Hive-IO Storage and Network Acceleration
• Preservation of existing Citrix licenses.
• A single, shared resource pool across the entire IT stack, eliminating point products and inefficient siloed IT architectures.
• Ability to scale users seamlessly and modularly, with no performance degradation.
• Reduce infrastructure CapEx and lower ongoing operating costs with Hive-IO's ease of use and smaller footprint.

Hive-IO offers a complete hyperconverged software solution that reduces storage needs, removes vendor sprawl and provides unparalleled security. Hive-IO can be delivered on-premise or from a services provider. Management of the platform can be done in-house or can be sourced externally to Hive-IO certified partners.

"Hive-IO, the fastest-growing company in the hyperconverged infrastructure market," noted Makoid. "The advanced features and performance in the Hive-IO Utility Fabric and extremely low cost allow customers to use XenDesktop in the most optimum way."
