Microsoft RemoteFX è una funzionalità disponibile per i clienti che utilizzano la piattaforma Servizi Desktop remoto in Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1.
I servizi Desktop remoto consentono ai responsabili IT di implementare e gestire centralmente i desktop e le applicazioni da remoto, pur mantenendo la sicurezza dei dati sui server nei data center. Microsoft RemoteFX, supportato dalle schede grafici professionali ATI FirePro, consente agli utenti di accedere - da una vasta gamma di dispositivi - a desktop di Windows 7 in una infrastruttura desktop virtuale (VDI).
”With ATI FirePro™ professional graphics, RemoteFX gives users a great experience on their remote devices. Whether on a remote traditional PC, or from a web page on a thin client, users can enjoy a rich desktop and applications that include high-fidelity graphics,” said Manlio Vecchiet, Director of Windows Server Product Management, Microsoft Corp. “Taking advantage of host-side rendering, ATI FirePro professional graphics lets applications on the host computer run at full speed. Combining fast host-side rendering with traditional client-side rendering, Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 gives Microsoft VDI customers great deployment flexibility. In a single solution, you get great graphics performance for device-independent remoting, as well as for network-constrained environments.”
AMD offre il supporto a Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 con le schede grafiche professionali ATI FirePro V5800, V7800, V8800 e V9800.
