Rome, Italy, Jan. 4, 2010 - NoMachine, creator of NX , the secure
remote access, desktop and application delivery software announced that
GoPC.net, a world pioneer and innovator of cloud computing technology,
is now offering virtualized PCs and server networks in the cloud via
NoMachine's NX technology.
The GoPC cloud platform operates on a
large grid of servers and uses NX technology with a backend server
network to deliver the full functionality of PC workstations. Each
user has a virtualized Linux desktop bundled with dozens of
pre-configured desktop apps, ultra-fast online storage, group
collaboration tools and security, all delivered via the Internet onto
almost any computer screen. Using NX Advanced Server with NX Advanced
Server Nodes, a grid computer array can be scaled to support hundreds
of thousands of concurrent users.
NX Advanced products reduce
downtime and guarantee fast provisioning, making them perfect for
companies to scale out computing resources on-demand. The result is a
new generation of cloud technology which can replace a traditional PC
or server networks with equivalent functionality and save as much as
90% of the costs, support and logistics.
GoPC.net offers a
much more functional solution to alternatives currently available in
the cloud computing arena. Its adoption of NX has allowed it to fully
embrace the growing demand by organizations to use virtualization
technologies to deploy, maintain and access business desktops and
applications in more flexible and efficient ways through the Internet.
CEO/Founder
of GoPC.net, Graeme Speak said, “We’ve been developing cloud technology
for over a decade and for us cloud means vastly more than just web apps
and online storage. Integrating NX technology with GoPC has enabled us
to create some amazing solutions that compete directly with traditional
PC workstations and server networks and at a small fraction of the
cost”.
With NX, GoPC.net delivers a sophisticated Virtual
Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) with nearly 100 integrated desktop
applications equivalent to a normal PC workstation. The fully managed
solution is targeted at business, education and consumers who can
create a single user account in seconds or deploy a sophisticated
network of 1,000 users - all from a simple dashboard.
“NX
extends the boundaries of any datacenter, and allows you to take
advantage of external computing resources efficiently and seamlessly.
The combination of NX and GoPC.net can empower users to run their
enterprise applications at the location that best meets their business
needs.” says Sarah Dryell, Business Development Manager at NoMachine.
“NoMachine
NX is an essential element of our cloud solution, removing dependence
on physical machines and eliminating most software license costs. It's
the core of our flagship consumer product and allows us to deliver the
equivalent functionality of traditional PC desktops and servers via the
cloud,” said Speak.
