[THIN] Re: Citrix Buys Ardence

A very interesting acquisition, but it's no Vmware or SWSoft (Virtuozzo)
scale.   Personally, I think Citrix should buy/merge with SWSoft.   The
Ardence solution is an advanced PXE boot that is hardware agnostic.

Ya know I was just reading about Ardence last night cause they were linked
to in a recent Newsletter I got from WindowsITPro and was thinking to myself
that they would be a good acquisition for Citrix. Pretty wild. 

 

I guess they just released a 4.0 version of their software..here is the
blurg from the newsletter I got.

Stream OS and Application Images, Regardless of Hardware 
Differences
Ardence announced version 4.0 of its Ardence Software-
Streaming Platform, which provisions and reprovisions 
desktops, servers, and services. Ardence's Common-Image 
functionality reduces the number of OS and application 
images that you need to manage because the Ardence 
Software-Streaming Platform can stream an image to 
computers with different NICs, chipsets, and different 
audio or video cards. Ardence's new architectural design 
allows for greater scalability by combining multiple 
processes into one integrated service. The product's UI has 
also been redesigned to make it easier to manage clients in 
the network. For more information, contact Ardence at 781- 647-3000 or
800-334-8649 .
