 "Citrix Branch Repeater 5 Enhances Delivery Of Virtualised Apps")
Citrix Systems has introduced the Citrix Branch Repeater 5, a key component of the Citrix Delivery Centre product family, adding significant enhancements that accelerate the delivery of virtualised applications to users in branch offices.
Many businesses have realised significant cost savings by centralising their applications and desktops in data centres using virtualisation. Now companies want to move on to the next phase of IT optimisation – consolidating the servers that provide essential services in the branch office. Branch Repeater 5 enables this consolidation without compromising the ‘high-definition experience’ users expect through the addition of new HDX IntelliCache and HDX Broadcast technologies for Citrix XenApp.
Multi-User Optimisation with HDX IntelliCache and HDX Broadcast
By accelerating application delivery to the branch, Branch Repeater provides the benefits of a high-definition user experience for branch users. It accelerates application launch, printing and file transfers by compressing, de-duplicating, staging and prioritising traffic across all branch users and applications, including those delivered by XenApp.
With the HDX IntelliCache technology for XenApp, Branch Repeater provides branch staging for streamed virtual applications and branch caching for hosted virtual applications.
With the new HDX Broadcast technology, Branch Repeater delivers new adaptive orchestration capabilities for XenApp, sensing real-time network and traffic conditions, and dynamically optimising delivery across multiple sessions within the Citrix ICA virtual delivery protocol.
Extend Server Consolidation to the Branch
Version 5 also adds new enhancements that enable further branch consolidation. Citrix Branch Repeater with Microsoft Windows Server, which consolidates multiple Microsoft branch services on a single appliance, now allows customers to host Microsoft Systems Management Server secondary sites as well, thereby eliminating the need for an additional dedicated server in the branch office. This helps customers extend server consolidation from the data centre to branch offices, harvesting the benefits of consolidation across all locations.
