Desktone’s Platform for Delivering Virtual Desktops as a Cloud Service Certified on VCE Vblock Systems

Desktone, Inc. the pioneer of Desktops as a Service (DaaS), today announced that the Desktone Platform has been certified on VCETM VblockTM Systems as “VCE Vblock Ready.” Vblock systems integrate leading Cisco networking and server, EMC storage and VMware cloud infrastructure technologies into a single intelligent converged infrastructure system with seamless support. This certification provides service provider partners with the assurance that the Desktone Platform will interoperate with Vblock systems.

The certification was conducted by VCE and enables mutual channel partners and customers to accelerate adoption of Vblock systems by leveraging the Desktone Platform to rapidly provision and deploy scalable, secure virtual desktops as a cloud service.
