This hinders the production deployments and the ability to realize business value. By combining <a href=\"https:\/\/www.schneider.systems\/lu\/citrix-daas-for-amazon-workspaces-core-available\/\">Citrix DaaS<\/a> and NVIDIA RTX Virtual Workstation, this partnership enables you to <strong>securely develop and deliver AI POCs<\/strong> and applications <strong>within your existing, secure Citrix infrastructure<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>What is Citrix DaaS?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Citrix DaaS<\/strong> (Desktop as a Service) is a virtual machine that you can access from anywhere. Citrix DaaS allows businesses to provide their employees with virtual desktops and applications that they can access from any device, like a laptop, tablet, or smartphone. This makes it easier for employees to work from different locations while keeping everything secure and easy to manage. Citrix DaaS offers advanced security policies, such as zero-trust network access (ZTNA), to secure your environment against threats and leaks.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>What is NVIDIA RTX Virtual Workstation?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>NVIDIA RTX Virtual Workstation<\/strong> is a powerful virtual computer designed for heavy tasks like graphics design, engineering, and AI development. It uses NVIDIA&#8217;s advanced graphics technology to handle demanding applications, so you get the same performance as if you were using a high-end physical workstation. This is especially useful for professionals who need to work on complex projects but want the flexibility to do so from different locations.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Combining both solutions<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In summary, Citrix DaaS provides the <strong>virtualization<\/strong> and <strong>secure<\/strong> access, while NVIDIA RTX Virtual Workstation offers the high-<strong>performance<\/strong> computing power needed for AI development. Together, they enable businesses to develop and prototype AI applications securely and efficiently. This is especially useful for industries with strict <strong>security<\/strong> and <strong>compliance<\/strong> requirements, like healthcare and finance, and for governmental entities.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Benefits<\/strong><\/h2>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li><strong>Enhanced Security: <\/strong>Feel more confident that your data and proprietary information will be protected and not leak out into public large language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cost-Effective Development: <\/strong>Develop, prototype, and POC AI apps in a more cost-effective way by leveraging the GPUs already running in your existing Citrix environment.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Faster Delivery: <\/strong>Significantly decrease AI delivery times, allowing IT to deliver business AI aspirations faster and at a lower cost.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Improved User Interaction: <\/strong>Allow users to interact with production AI apps within the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.schneider.systems\/lu\/citrix-platform-available\/\">Citrix platform<\/a> to ensure secure access.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>More Information<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Announcements<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.citrix.com\/news\/announcements\/mar-2025\/citrix-and-nvidia-to-deliver-ai-virtual-workstations-enabling-customers-to-develop-and-securely-deliver-ai-applications.html\">https:\/\/www.citrix.com\/news\/announcements\/mar-2025\/citrix-and-nvidia-to-deliver-ai-virtual-workstations-enabling-customers-to-develop-and-securely-deliver-ai-applications.html<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.citrix.com\/blogs\/2025\/03\/19\/citrix-and-nvidia-partner-to-deliver-ai-virtual-workstations\/\">https:\/\/www.citrix.com\/blogs\/2025\/03\/19\/citrix-and-nvidia-partner-to-deliver-ai-virtual-workstations\/<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Our <strong>Citrix<\/strong> page: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.schneider.systems\/software\/citrix\/\">https:\/\/www.schneider.systems\/software\/citrix\/<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.schneider.systems\/contact\/\"><strong>Contact us<\/strong><\/a><strong> today for consultancy on Citrix licensing for your enterprise.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Effective March 19, 2025, Citrix and NVIDIA have teamed up to create AI virtual workstations.
