Citrix Systems announced Citrix Desktop Serverâ„¢ 1.0 (previously code-named Project Trinity).  The debut of this new technology marks the entrance into the burgeoning virtual desktop market for Citrix . With Desktop Server, Citrix is creating a new approach for IT organizations to deliver and manage desktops.  

Citrix Desktop Server will be important to IT managers who want to deliver an entire desktop in secure fashion to office workers who sometimes work from alternative locations, such as a home or a branch office, Citrix officials said. Since the server is located in the data center, IT workers can provide additional CPU, memory or storage to virtual desktops as the needs change for the business or the end user.

"With the power of Desktop Server, IT can provide users with powerful, personalized desktops while protecting corporate assets and maximizing the use of IT resources," said Mick Hollison, vice president and product line executive for Desktop Server at Citrix , based in Fort Lauderdale, Fla.

Desktop management costs in large businesses can reach Rs 225,000 per user per year, and Citrix said it can cut that cost by 40%, according to a statement from Citrix .
