Solutions - Optimizing Infrastructures

Citrix continually works with Microsoft to deliver a set of Infrastructure Optimization (IO) solutions for customers.

Effective deployments and well-managed, secure infrastructures are essential for achieving the satisfaction and revenue growth of your customers.

The key ingredients of the Citrix solutions for driving this success are:

• Virtualized applications with the power of Citrix Presentation Server on Microsoft Windows Server and Microsoft Terminal Services which provide efficient deployment of applications while not requiring client hardware upgrades.
• Hybrid SSL VPN/HTTPS proxy for tailored access based upon device capabilities and IT defined profiles which provides enhanced security without increasing management time.
• Advanced Access Control by leveraging the power of the Windows Server System™ to deliver sophisticated access control capabilities.
• Agent-based single sign on to legacy applications leveraging Active Directory Federation Services (ADFS) allows for efficient and effective auditing of application usage and regulatory compliance, providing end-user time and costs savings.
• Strategically Working with Customers with Strategy Briefings, Proof of Concept and Architecture Design Sessions to rapidly move customers to well managed and secure infrastructures.
