Wyse Sees Big Growth In Thin Clients |

To that end, Wyse announced an alliance with virtualization software maker VMware this week that Kish said will eventually help the company get most, if not all, PC applications over to servers where they can be readily accessed by low cost, desktop thin clients. Wyse will join the VMware Community Source program. It plans to integrate its Wyse infrastructure deployment and management solutions with VMware's virtual infrastructure, across its thin-client platform portfolio, which includes Windows XPe, Windows CE, Wyse Thin OS and Linux. Kish said there will be additional announcements in the next few months, as the two companies work at a more technical level to integrate VMware's software and Wyse's thin-client OS. Wyse also plans to eventually take the thin-client model well beyond the traditional PC box replacement. Later this year Kish said Wyse plans to unveil its first single-chip implementation of a thin client that could theoretically be embedded in cell phones and PDAs. Read the whole article here.
