Discovery, Monitoring, and Acceleration Software for Business-Critical Applications

Features

RTO TScale® has optimization features that continuously and automatically improve the performance of applications running on your terminal servers, improving response times during peak load periods.

Support for Microsoft SoftGrid® Application Virtualization
SoftGrid's application virtualization allows any application to run alongside any other – even applications that normally conflict, multiple versions of the same application, and many applications that previously could not run under Terminal Services. This eliminates the need for server silos and reduces the number of servers needed in the Terminal Server farm.

SoftGrid's approach means that applications are centrally stored and then delivered and executed on Terminal Servers on demand. Application files are only delivered once from the SoftGrid server to the Terminal Server, where they are cached for repeat use by multiple users. This makes business desktop application management more manageable while allowing secure access to applications on demand from the datacenter.

One of the downsides of using SoftGrid is that it can have an impact upon scalability. The latest version of RTO TScale is specifically designed to optimize SoftGrid applications. This means that every terminal server in this server farm, is resource optimized (memory and CPU utilization) to increase the number of terminal server users supported on each server thereby improving capacity utilization of every server in the farm while ensuring application response time is kept up.

Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) Optimization
Increase VDI capacity on your VDI broker/server by optimizing the use of memory by Virtual Desktops all from a single interface. This will result in an increase in the number of virtual desktop supported by a single VDI broker/server from current levels. The percentage increase will depend on the virtual desktop enviroment.

Dynamic CPU Balancing
Many client applications work better on a single processor than on multiple processors. This is especially true in a published application/desktop environment. RTO TScale’s Dynamic CPU Balancing applies the most efficient affinity scheme for running processes, causing applications that perform more efficiently on a single processor to operate on a single processor automatically - effectively load balancing processors. TScale allows applications which perform best on multiple processors to operate without change.

Advanced Memory Manager
RTO TScale(TM) dynamically manages your memory resources, reducing the memory used by an application when resources are not needed, increasing capacity, improving performance, and reducing application load time. Application Memory Management can reduce virtual memory use by 25% to 50%.

Registry Optimization
TScale's Registry Optimization frees up resources for more sessions, and reduces user login times by reducing the size of user and system registry files.

Application CPU Shaping
RTO TScale(TM) eliminates freezes, spikes and sluggishness due to applications consuming more than their share of CPU. Our Application Shaping lets you easily eliminate negative impact on users of rogue applications, while still supporting high-CPU application peak needs.

Advanced Integration and Administration
The RTO Optimization Console is a multi-server, centralized management console that allows administrators to handle all installation, management, reporting and maintenance of RTO TScale(TM) across large server farms. Also, TScale now optimizes applications managed by Softricity^®.

Citrix Presentation Server 4.0 Management and Optimization
The RTO Optimization Console is now integrated with Citrix Presentation Server 4.0, and can be used to control it's Memory Optimization Management feature. This enables additional performance tuning and reporting not available in Citrix Presentation Server 4.0, such as collection of support data, VM exclusion list management, VM optimization history reporting, and VM optimization scheduling.

RTO PinPoint Integration
RTO TScale(TM) is integrated with RTO Software's new product, RTO PinPoint. RTO PinPoint monitors mission-critical Windows^® server applications in real-time to guide managers to specific performance issues before they degrade business operations.
