Cisco and Citrix have partnered to bring their technologies together and come up with an enterprise mobility infrastructure solution.
The partnership was announced at the ongoing Citrix Synergy 2014 Conference in Anaheim, Los Angeles.
According to the companies, the Cisco Mobile Workspace Solution with Citrix - including the new Citrix Workspace Suite, also unveiled at the event - simplifies how organisations provide access to apps, data, communications and services on any device from networked locations.
The companies believe that as enterprises and government institutions of all sizes mobilise their workforce, they need an effective and flexible mobility infrastructure based on highly diverse technologies that work in sync.
Cisco touts its Mobile Workspace Solution with Citrix as the first end-to-end solution on the market to deliver a complete mobility platform by incorporating Citrix Workspace Suite.
Cisco and Citrix are expanding their existing joint portfolio of solutions and go-to-market activities around desktop virtualisation, cloud services and networking to mobile workspaces.
"We have been a strategic partner with Citrix for many years, and our goal of helping customers build on their mobility initiatives is first and foremost," says Sujai Hajela, senior VP of Enterprise Networking Group, Cisco.
"Together, our solution makes it possible for employees and end-users to access their applications and content from their user-owned or corporate issued devices, easily and with great degree of security."
Sudhakar Ramakrishna, senior VP and GM, Enterprise and Service Provider Division, Citrix, says the company's alliance with Cisco spans many years.
"As Cisco's first mobile workspace partner, we share a common vision of helping customers embrace mobility by seamlessly uniting our technologies to deliver a solution that enables better ways of working. Today, we are delivering on that vision by offering customers a powerful solution that enhances user experience and productivity while simplifying and securing IT infrastructure in a cost-effective manner."
Cisco Mobile Workspace Solution with Citrix with Cisco Validated Design will be available by the end of May 2014.
