SAN FRANCISCO, March 9, 2021 /PRNewswire/
-- IGEL, provider of the next-gen edge OS for cloud
workspaces, today announced an agreement with Wipro Limited (NYSE:
WIT, BSE: 507685, NSE: WIPRO), a leading global information
technology, consulting and business process services company to
drive business continuity and accelerate the delivery of cloud
workspaces within today's hybrid work environments that include a
mix of remote and on-premises workers. Through this new agreement,
Wipro will leverage IGEL OS, alongside cloud workspace platforms
from Citrix and Microsoft, as part of Wipro virtuadesk™, its
Desktop-as-a-Service (DaaS) solution.
"With businesses working to stay abreast of the changes in the
economy brought on by COVID-19, it has become critical that they
leverage cloud workspaces like VDI and DaaS in a secure
way," said Balaji Subramanian,
Senior Vice President and Global Channel Chief, IGEL. "We are
pleased to be adding Wipro to our growing network of system
integrator partners around the globe. Teaming with them helps our
mutual customers reduce costs while quickly scaling their remote
work environments in a way that enhances end user productivity and
security."
Purpose-built for enterprise access to virtual and cloud-powered
environments of all types, IGEL OS is ideally suited to be the edge
OS for environments accessing Windows through a well-managed data
center or cloud deployment. IGEL OS is also hardware-agnostic,
supporting any compatible x86 endpoint so enterprises can extend
the life of aging hardware while standardizing a heterogeneous
desktop estate with easy-to-manage policy control and increased
security. "By leveraging IGEL OS to deliver its secure cloud
workspace offerings, Wipro is enabling enterprise customers to
modernize and transform their endpoint computing environments,"
continued Subramanian.
Wipro virtuadesk™, is an appliance-based DaaS solution that
provides accelerators for cloud readiness assessment, cloud
migration and application life cycle management, leveraging
Artificial Intelligence, Automation, Internet of Things, mobility
and analytics. Wipro virtuadesk™ creates an ecosystem for
improved employee engagement and collaboration through simpler
IT.
"Today, companies must be prepared to facilitate anytime,
anywhere access to systems and information for employees across
business units and geographies," said Satish Y, Vice President,
Cloud & Infrastructure Services, Wipro Limited. "Technology is
a key enabler of this, but it must also have a global focus. This
combines the right mix of global compute and storage capabilities
with more subtle elements, such as personalized and configurable
services, robust service level agreements, and language
capabilities to accommodate the global talent spread. IGEL is
helping us deliver our re-imagined solutions, like Wipro
virtuadesk™, that create best-in-class virtual desktop
experiences to enhance the employee experience, both in the cloud
and on-premises, while helping businesses achieve their desired
strategic outcomes."
