Citrix has announced the Citrix Ready HCI Workspace Appliance Program, with Atlantis and HPE collaborating with Citrix on the first offering in it, the HPE Intelligent Edge Workspace. It is a turnkey virtual workspace appliance with mid-market simplicity and pricing.
The new Atlantis integration with Citrix brings its VDI infrastructure directly into Citrix management interfaces, while the new partnering with Rancher Labs integrates Atlantis’ management interface with theirs to better manage containers.
The two companies have been long-time partners around VDI, but this extension of their relationship makes a very low cost hyper-converged offering, which combines Atlantis’ hyper-converged infrastructure with the full Xen stack, available to any certified Citrix partner.
Atlantis also announced a new relationship with Dell, the only major OEM for whom its software was not customized when the first Atlantis hyperconverged products were announced last year.
Atlantis is adapting its high-performance USX software defined storage platform into a hyperconverged appliance that is easy to deploy and use, and is much less expensive than existing competitive offerings.
Atlantis Computing, which makes solutions that optimize virtual storage, has announced the release of a new bundle, Atlantis ILIO for Virtual SAN.
