Newly available plug-in dramatically improves performance of 3D applications run through Citrix Presentation Server
Tulsa, Oklahoma Feb. 21, 2006 - A new plug-in is now available which will dramatically improve the performance of all 3D OpenGL based applications run on Citrix Windows servers.
The plug-in uses the ThinAnywhere technology and drops seamlessly into existing Citrix environments allowing users to gain extreme 3D graphics performance with their existing Citrix infrastructure.
ThinAnywhere specializes in extreme performance for graphically intensive 3D applications by using hardware acceleration for rendering together with proprietary compression and transport logic to achieve very high frame rates with modest bandwidth requirements. Depending on the application, window size and model size frame rates can exceed 50 frames per second. In addition to Citrix and RDP plug-ins, full versions of ThinAnywhere are also available to handle applications in heterogeneous networks including any Unix or Linux platform. Many customers use ThinAnywhere as the preferred method for application delivery to the desktop as part of the access infrastructure.
"While the current release of the Citrix plug-in is a quantum leap for Windows 3D applications and handles multiple users per video card and multiple cards per machine, the next release due out in the second quarter is truly awesome", explains Ralph Gobeli the CEO of Mercury International Technology, Inc. the makers of ThinAnywhere. "Our new cluster rendering technology will utilize the existing machines in the network and spread the work load of rendering the images to multiple computers (each with video cards) in the network. By spreading the work load users will be able to get better performance than even a high end deskside workstation, on larger screens and more complex data sets, and have all of the benefits of the thin client delivery model", continues Mr. Gobeli.
Mercury International Technology is privately held company specializing in 3D thin client solutions headquartered in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
