Wyse Technology Offers Flash Acceleration For Virtual Environments

Wyse Technology, a provider of thin computing and client virtualisation, has officially announced its new acceleration solution for Adobe Flash, as part of its TCX virtualisation software suite. The new functionality improves the end user experience on virtual desktops by solving the Flash content quality challenge for VDI and Terminal Services environments.

Offered as part of the Wyse TCX virtualisation software suite, the new Flash acceleration extends the capabilities of the Microsoft RDP and Citrix ICA/ HDX protocols for Flash Player 9 and 10 and Internet Explorer 6 and 7. Compatibility with VMware View and Citrix XenDesktop connection brokers, using Windows XP Pro, Vista or Windows 7 completes the solution.

Sumit Dhawan, vice president, Product Marketing, XenDesktop product group at Citrix Systems, said, “Wyse technologies extend Citrix HDX technologies to deliver a high-definition user experience and expand the ability of IT to offer virtual desktops to a wide variety of users.”
