By SiliconIndia | Thursday, August 28, 2014

Desktop as a Service European Expansion – VMware Horizon DaaS will be available to global customers in the U.K. and a third desktop service option, VMware Horizon DaaS Enterprise will offer high performance DaaS environments to a broader set of user profiles.

“VMware virtual desktops have helped our company consolidate IT support, save costs and better serve our worldwide employees and customers,” said Amrith Nambiar, vice president, Information Technology at ServiceSource. “After evaluating other solutions, we chose VMware Horizon because of its unique capabilities and we have been delighted with our decision.”

Introducing Project Meteor, a Technology Preview

Today at VMworld 2014, VMware also demonstrated Project Meteor, a technology preview showcasing next generation desktops and applications as a service.

Unlike the current desktop virtualization solutions which simply lift-and-shift the desktop management problems from physical PCs to servers in the datacenter, this technology can create personalized desktops with a user’s applications and data, dynamically using any generic available virtual machine.

In addition, Project Meteor will then deliver these end-user resources in seconds to any device with an HTML5 based browser. This will offer a mobile-like experience in its speed and

personalization, while offering the agility and anywhere access of the cloud.

Pricing and Availability

VMware Workspace Suite is available immediately. Contact VMware sales or a local VMware reseller partner for pricing. VMware Horizon DaaS Enterprise, support for published applications and new service in the U.K. are expected in Q3 2014.
