Instead of running the desktop OS and applications on a PC, the virtual desktop exists only in a virtual machine on a server. In some environments, this allows enterprises to more efficiently and securely manage their users and devices, according to Dell.
By acquiring Wyse, Dell gets both hardware and software it can integrate with its own products to offer more complete packages.
Wyse's hardware portfolio includes both thin and so-called zero clients. For example, last month, Wyse introduced the T10, which uses an ARM-based processor to keep both cost and the operating temperature down.
The T10 uses Wyse's own OS, ThinOS, which has been tailored for use on thin clients. Its small size results in a quicker start. The client can be used with a number of different platforms for virtualized desktops, including those from Citrix, Microsoft and VMware, the company said at the time.
Wyse also offers management software that can control Apple's iPads and iPhones, Android-based devices and its own clients. Read More
