JAVAD | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- Sun Microsystems, Inc. announced the availability of Sun Ray Software 5, which the company said brings enhancements to the virtual desktop experience and helps to increase data center efficiency.
"As IT budgets are stretched due to the tough economic climate, reducing administration costs and lowering energy consumption are more important than ever. Many customers are choosing Sun desktop virtualization for the unique combination of streamlined administration and increased flexibility and security of their infrastructure," said Jim McHugh, vice president of Datacenter Marketing, Sun Microsystems. "The latest Sun Ray Software release builds on Sun's commitment to innovation by improving the quality of the virtual desktop experience and makes it easy for customers to deploy Sun's desktop virtualization technologies with their existing Windows PCs."
"There are a lot of benefits to preserving the equipment you already have, especially in these economic times where there might not be the capital available to spend on new equipment," said Malcolm Fraser, service delivery manager from Computer Concepts Ltd, a Sun partner and systems integrator. "The Sun Desktop Access Client makes a lot of sense from a manageability standpoint and a cost perspective. It's essentially a migration tool to get groups of end users switched over to Sun Ray clients in phases. Not only will our customers save money as they move to a server-hosted architecture, but also gain increased security with Sun Ray Software 5."
An additional enhancement in Sun Ray Software 5 is improved Adobe Flash performance, which enables customers to experience accelerated Adobe Flash content with synchronized audio and video on Sun Ray thin clients and Sun Desktop Access Client enabled PCs. The new release also includes greater peripheral device support to virtual desktops through USB redirection to Windows, allowing users to deploy a significantly expanded set of USB peripheral devices with Sun Ray technology, including scanners, printers, and more. In addition, Sun Ray Software 5 allows customers to display Windows Server 2008 applications in 32 bit color and includes support for Windows Server 2008 TS Session Broker, the company noted in a release.
