New Website Design of VMware Website and new product launch – VMware View 4
VMware View 4 announced together with new design of VMware Website.
Together with a launch of new design of VMware Website there is a new product launch – VMware View 4. Desktop Virtualization platform.
One of the new features is PCoIP, which is a technology that is used by View 4 especially for low bandwidth ana WAN connections. PCoIP is able to dynamically detect and adapt to the end users network connection. There are two editions of VMware View 4 available:
- VMware View Enterprise – includes vSphere 4 for Desktops, vCenter 4, and VMware View Manager 4.
- VMware View Premier - includes vSphere 4 for Desktops, vCenter 4, VMware View Manager 4, VMware View Composer, VMware ThinApp 4 and VMware Offline Desktop.
On LAN or WAN connections, VMware View 4 with PCoIP delivers a high performance desktop experience, even over high latency and low bandwidth connections.

PCoIP is certainly a great display protocol. However in some scenarios of slow remote connections (like over certain WANs) there may be issues where PCoIP doesn’t function quite as well. In those cases, you can complement the VMware View deployment with Ericom Blaze, a software-based RDP acceleration and compression product that provides improved performance over WANs. Besides delivering higher frame rates and reducing screen freezes and choppiness, Blaze accelerates RDP performance by up to 10-25 times, while significantly reducing network bandwidth consumption over low-bandwidth/high latency connections.
You can use VMware View with PCoIP for your LAN and fast WAN users, and at the same time use VMware View with Blaze over RDP for your slow WAN users. This combined solution can provide enhanced performance in both types of environments, letting you get the best out of VMware View for your users.
