Fujitsu partners Citrix

Fujitsu Technology Solutions and Citrix Systems announced an OEM agreement
that expands the relationship between the two companies to help customers reduce
the cost and complexity of implementing a virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI)
for enterprise customers.

Under terms of the agreement, Fujitsu will expand its portfolio of virtual
workplace infrastructure solutions, a key part of its vision of providing
customers with dynamic infrastructures. Fujitsu will integrate Citrix XenDesktop
with HDX technology into its virtual workplace solutions, giving customers a
personalized virtual desktop experience in any location. Fujitsu also announced
plans to add Citrix XenServer virtualization to its Primergy rack and blade
server offerings.

Citrix XenDesktop will be one of the key enabling technologies for Fujitsu's
virtual workplace and managed virtual workplace product and service offerings,
helping to dramatically improve service quality.

Customers using the combined solution may choose from a variety of systems,
including VDI-ready Fujitsu Primergy servers and Citrix Ready certified FUTRO
thin clients, all tested and pre-integrated with Citrix XenDesktop.
