NComputing Inks OEM Agreement With Europe's Leading Computer Company
REDWOOD CITY, California, March 7, 2011 - NComputing, a global leader in desktop virtualization, announced it has
signed an OEM relationship with Fujitsu Technology Solutions. Fujitsu will
integrate NComputing's 64-bit vSpace virtualization and NUMO(TM) system on a
chip (SoC) with its PC, servers and services to provide fully-integrated
multi-workplace solutions optimized for SMB customers. The technology will be
marketed under Fujitsu's FUTRO brand in an integrated network-ready monitor
FUTRO DC20-1 and as a stand-alone client, the FUTRO C400. The
multi-workplacesolutionswill be sold through the channel and will be
available immediately in EMEA markets.
Commented Stephen Dukker, CEO Ncomputing: "Partnering with a global top
tier computing company is huge testament to the leadership role we have
played in solving the complexities, technology barriers and pricing issues
that hindered adoption of thin-client computing for years. Partnerships such
as this are creating entirely new product ecosystems that add value and
advantage for everyone including OEMs, system integrators, the channel and
customers. Fujitsu's innovation and leadership in SMB combined with our
innovation and leadership in virtualization will push the total addressable
market for virtualized multi-user environments to new heights."
Fujitsu's multi-workplace solutions solve the SMB challenge of having to
configure and integrate multiple devices, peripherals, virtualization
software and operating systems to create virtual multi-user environments.
SMBs will benefit from a significantly lower cost of acquisition compared to
traditional all-PC multi-user environments as well as on-going cost savings
such as 90% lower energy costs and 50% reduction in maintenance and support
costs.
Said Rajat Kakar, Vice President Workplace Systems at Fujitsu Technology
Solutions: "Our SMB customers are looking to reduce costs, bandwidth, IT
resources and to simplify their complex IT environment. Our multi workplace
solutions solve this problem. With the help of NComputing's technology, we
can deliver packaged solutions that provide powerful multi-computing
environments with PC-like performance at highly attractive and affordable
price points."
NComputing'svSpace virtualization software combined with its NUMO(TM) SoC
enables OEM and ODM companies to design and manufacture virtualized,
multi-user access solutions and devices based on Windows and Linux vSpace
software can be deployed alone, or seamlessly integrates with popular server
virtualization infrastructures provided by Citrix, Microsoft and VMware to
extend their value by changing the typical virtual desktop structure from one
user per virtual machine to thirty. NUMO(TM) is a highly integrated
System-on-Chip (SoC) that features a dual-core ARM CPU, embedded media
processors supporting dynamic bandwidth management; multiple protocols and
codecs including UXP and H.264; Windows-compliant graphics subsystem and a
complete complement of device interfaces for graphics, serial, parallel, USB,
SD, I2S, I2C for integration with enterprise and consumer devices.
