VMware Announces General Availability of VMware View 4.6
VMware View 4.6 delivers enhanced remote access with VMware View
Security Server support for PCoIP
PALO ALTO, Calif. — Feb. 28, 2011 — VMware, Inc. (NYSE: VMW), the
global leader in virtualization and cloud infrastructure, today
announced the general availability of VMware View™ 4.6 with enhanced
remote access via VMware View Security Server support for PC-over-IP
(PCoIP).
VMware View Security Server support for PCoIP allows for a simple,
secure remote connection and authentication to a user’s desktop by
removing the requirement for enterprise-class SSL VPNs — providing
customers with greater choice when initiating end-to-end PCoIP protocol
session. The result is a tightly-integrated and cost-effective desktop
virtualization deployment that provides for easy authentication of
remote users.
“The release of VMware View™ 4.6 with PCoIP support for VMware View
Security Server provides a simple and secure way for users to access
their VMware View desktops remotely, while taking advantage of a
superior PCoIP experience,” said Raj Mallempati, director, End-User
Computing Products for VMware. “When you combine VMware View Security
Server with View’s wide range of supported end-point and mobility
options, VMware View 4.6 provides the best of both worlds — End-user
freedom. IT control.”
VMware View™ is a complete, virtual desktop solution that enables
enterprises to improve security and lower operating costs, while
simplifying desktop administration and management by establishing a
modern, end-user computing architecture. VMware’s End-User Computing
vision seeks to free users and IT from more than two decades of complex,
device-centric computing and deliver a more consumer-focused cloud
experience for the enterprise.
