Kaviza Announces Strategic Investment by Citrix
Will we see grid VDI with Citrix's ICA?
The desktop virtualization landscape is changing - Citrix have invested an undisclosed sum in Kaviza, a startup with a unique grid technology that significantly lowers the cost of VDI implementations. Kaviza's grid technology allows you to use commodity servers with local storage for VDI, eliminating the shared storage requirement - which is typically a very significant factor in the cost of a VDI implementation.
Any comments now are mostly speculation, however, I would imagine this means that Citrix will introduce a grid-capable edition of XenDesktop in the future.
