Company to make Citrix SD-WAN and Citrix ADC
available on GCP Marketplace, enabling experience-driven
application performance and delivery across modern networks
Applications make the world go around. And delivering and
ensuring they perform reliably just got a lot easier thanks to
Citrix Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:CTXS). The company today announced
that it will make Citrix® SD-WAN and Citrix ADC available on Google
Cloud Platform (GCP). The move will enable companies to extend
their networks to the cloud and deliver applications in an agile
and scalable way that gives users access to the tools they need and
prefer to use and perform at their best anywhere, anytime from any
device. The news came during Google Cloud Next ’19 taking place at
the Moscone Center in San Francisco this week.
“Application performance and delivery and is all about
experience and choice,” said Tim Minahan, Executive Vice President
of Strategy and Chief Marketing Officer, Citrix. “In making our
networking solutions available on GCP, Citrix is providing
companies with even greater cloud choice and a simple, efficient
way to deploy the ever-increasing list of SaaS, cloud, virtual, web
and microservices-based apps their employees need to be engaged and
productive.”
Accelerating the Journey to the Cloud
Whether motivated by efficiency, agility, scalability or cost,
companies are increasingly moving apps to the cloud. But regardless
of where they are hosted, users expect a consistent and reliable
experience. To help deliver it, Citrix will offer a virtual
instance of its SD-WAN appliance on the GCP Marketplace beginning
next month. With the Citrix SD-WAN virtual appliance, companies can
easily and reliably connect branches to GCP and:
- Deliver an optimal application
experience to Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktop on GCP through
integration with HDX which uses the ICA protocol.
- Provide exceptional performance to
applications running on GCP, including G Suite with deep packet
inspection, QoS, and link bonding.
- Quickly set up high-availability
connections to Google Cloud VPCs (Virtual Private Cloud) and manage
the entire network from the Citrix orchestration service.
A Modern, Experience-Driven Approach
Application delivery is a different game today. Many companies
are moving to modernize their apps with microservices and
Kubernetes and more efficiently deploy their applications across
hybrid cloud. Through increased integration of Citrix ADC with GCP,
Kubernetes, service mesh with Istio architectures and open source
CNCF tools, they can achieve their goals.
With the virtual Citrix ADC product set including virtualized,
containerized form factor and gateway solutions available on the
GCP Marketplace, companies can:
- Tap into a comprehensive,
software-centric feature set to deliver a better application
experience.
- Drive operational consistency for
on-premises and cloud deployments.
- Pool capacity licensing to optimize
utilization and deliver savings.
- Simplify access management through
single sign on.
- Manage public cloud and on-premises
environments from a single pane of glass.
“Experience-driven application performance and delivery in the
cloud is the future of networking,” Minahan said. “With Citrix
solutions on GCP, companies can deliver it today.”
