Citrix Releases Administrator's Guide For Desktop Broker For Citrix Presentation Server
Friday, 20 October 2006 by Michel Roth
Citrix has released the Administrator's Guide of their Remote Desktop Broker for Presentation Server, which will probably be released at the upcoming iForum.

Organizations who use Citrix Presentation Server to centralize application deployment, can now use the Desktop Broker to centrally deploy and manage desktop environments in the data center. Windows XP workstations, referred to as hosted desktops, are hosted in the data center and published using Presentation Server.

The Desktop Broker provides the management interface which makes this possible.
Businesses can use the Desktop Broker to provide a virtual work environment for employees who need access to a hosted Windows XP desktop that provides a user experience similar to having a dedicated, physical Windows XP workstation on their desktops. Users can connect, using thin terminals running a Web browser and a Presentation Server client, and access these hosted desktops just as they would a published application.

Desktop Broker for Citrix Presentation Server is ideal for deployment at offsite facilities used for development, call centers, back order processing, or other transaction-based tasks where confidential information and intellectual property can be securely stored and maintained in the corporate data center.
