Profile Virtualization in VDI (registration required)
Managing user data in a Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) environment is continually evolving as the computer industry takes the user desktop experience to new heights. Utilizing advanced software tools such as RTO Software’s Virtual Profiles, corporations can reduce IT infrastructure loads and desktop management costs, while simultaneously securing data and end-user access to information precisely when, where, and how it is needed – minus slow logon times and/or data degradation.
RTO TScale Product Evaluation Report (registration required)
This product evaluation report, we completed for Corporate Synergies, demonstrates how RTO TScale increases application virtual memory utilization and scalability of an application server!
RTO Terminal Services Scalability Study (registration required)
Part 1: The Effect of Citrix Presentation Server 4.0
Performance and scalability are essential for your terminal services farms. However, an understanding of the true scalability of the terminal services or Citrix Presentation Server environments represents the Holy Grail for terminal server architects planning roll‐outs in such environments. Unfortunately, most testing environments fail to comprehend many of the effects of the complex interactions in each of these environments, and do not accurately reflect the true scalability.
Therefore, we set out to conduct a series of experiments in THREE parts. This paper constitutes PART 1 of the series and is focused primarily on determining the overhead for terminal services clients running desktops. It compares Remote Desktop (RDP) clients and Citrix Presentation Server (ICA) clients while also taking into account the overhead for resources used by Citrix Presentation Server 4.0 (MPS4.0) once it is installed on a server.
PART 2 will focus on how RTO TScale handles memory optimization to substantially increase scalability for terminal server environments and PART 3 will focus on how RTO TScale optimizations scale virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) environments.

Delivering Consistently Superior User Experiences (registration required)
The
lack of application-centric metrics and analysis tools makes it difficult,
if not impossible, for IT managers to optimize application performance. That
is the premise of this white paper, which highlights the key challenges
associated with measuring application performance in today's heterogeneous
IT environments.
Download this white paper for FREE after filling out a brief registration
form and learn more about the importance of application-level performance
measurement and to discover why derivative metrics—those that measure server
or network performance—are of little to no value when it comes to delivering
superior end user experiences.
Five Ways
to Maximize Value of Future IT Investments (registration required)
This thought leadership
white paper discusses several key issues that will impact your company as it
moves toward a Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) and Web Services
technologies. The paper drills down on five critical strategies that can
help you transform your existing infrastructure to a next-generation model,
including the need to:
- Recognize that it's
not enough to have the fastest, most robust hardware
- Make a distinction
between revenue-generating and administrative-support applications
- Set a plan for
critical path monitoring
- Align system and
application performance metrics with business metrics
- Establish a plan to
guard against security threats and generate audit trails to meet
regulatory requirements
