Running Windows applications on Chrome OS
Citrix Systems joined Google on stage at its live Google Chrome event in San Francisco to preview the new Citrix Receiver for Chrome Notebooks.
Available soon as a free app on the Google Chrome Web Store, Citrix Receiver will allow Google customers to run their existing Windows business applications directly on the new web-based Chrome notebooks.
According to Citrix the apps will run with a native user experience, fast performance, and full enterprise security.
This functionality may also interest corporate IT departments as Citrix said that it will allow them to deliver existing enterprise applications and desktops as a secure, on-demand service to Chrome notebook users.
“The new Chrome notebook breaks new ground in simplifying end user computing devices,” said Gordon Payne, senior vice president and general manager at Citrix.
“Extending Citrix Receiver support for Chrome notebooks will provide virtual computing solutions that simplify computing for IT, and enable productive, virtual workstyles for users.”
Pricing and Availability
Citrix Receiver for Chrome Notebooks is scheduled to be available as a free app from the Google Chrome Web Store in the first half of 2011.
Citrix Receiver works by connecting to the Citrix XenDesktop or Citrix XenApp servers already running in the datacenters of most corporate customers.
