Teradici, the developer of the PC-over-IP(R) (PCoIP(R)) protocol which enables a true PC experience for desktop virtualization, announced today enhanced capabilities in PCoIP Software Release 3.8. The new release offers bandwidth improvement by up to 75 percent, enhanced session resilience for mobile users and software session statistics to improve end user session management and performance monitoring.
The PCoIP Software Release 3.8 enhancements include:
– Client side caching – caches images and portions of the desktop composition to minimize retransmission of pixels across the network resulting in a significant reduction in the bandwidth of individual sessions.
– Enhanced text CODEC – An update to the PCoIP lossless CODEC used for text will improve compression resulting in lower bandwidth requirements.
– GPO control of build to lossless — enables users to choose the right solution for their individual deployments by providing an option for disabling PCoIP build to lossless to maximize bandwidth savings.
– Session resilience — improves the ability to recover from sessions with high packet loss or network interrupts.
– Software session statistics — over 30 per session statistics for monitoring performance and user experience using perfmon or any WMI 3rd party tool.
“Our new release delivers a significant reduction in bandwidth consumption, improved session resilience for mobile users and comprehensive performance monitoring and diagnosis capabilities – addressing important issues for our customers and IT professionals,” said Trent Punnet, vice president of marketing, product management and systems engineering at Teradici. “Teradici is excited to introduce these PCoIP protocol enhancements to address the needs of users on LAN, WAN and mobile networks, and enable our customers to better manage their virtual desktop infrastructure.”
Teradici’s PCoIP software release 3.8 is included in VMware View 5.0.
