Accelerate DirectX Google Earth and Google Earth Optimization Pack!

Accelerate DirectX Google Earth and Google Earth Optimization Pack! -

Do your users need to run Google Earth from a virtual office? If so, then you must download and test the new Google Earth Optimization Pack for XenDesktop 5.5. Google Earth Optimization Pack is available for all users 5.5 Enterprise and Platinum XenDesktop. The best part of this optimization pack is that it has no server and no requirement GPU client side! It runs on XenServer, Hyper-V and vSphere and Citrix will work with any receiver (ICA Client) can connect to XenDesktop 5.5 can be downloaded from the link below

http :. // Support. citrix.com/article/CTX131167.

So why do we need an optimization pack for Google Earth?

First, if you use a HDX 3D Pro enabled virtual machine or RemoteFX, then you do not need the optimization pack for Google Earth that you already have a dedicated GPU for rendering. However, HDX 3D Pro is currently one GPU in a virtual desktop solution and RemoteFX requires Hyper-V and Windows 7 endpoints. Using HDX 3D Pro, if you are a school and plan to have hundreds of students a virtual desktop access, you would need a dedicated GPU for each office. Want to run 50 virtual desktops on a single server? Then you need to find a way to connect to this server 50 GPU! HDX 3D Pro is a great solution for high-end 3D users, but it can be an expensive proposition if all you want to do is deliver Google Earth to large numbers of users. For a little more information about HDX 3D Pro, see the recent blog Derek Thorslund.

/ blogs / 2011/09/06 / hdx-3d-pro-takes-another-step forward /

Google Earth is a graphic intense application to be able to perform 3D rendering. There are two different rendering modes available when running Google Earth; Open GL and DirectX. The preferred method and the most effective to run Google Earth is DirectX. In DirectX mode, Google Earth will pass all rendering commands to DirectX subsystem which will automatically make the most effective use of the graphics card to perform rendering operations. If you run Google Earth in OpenGL mode, you end often emulate all the OpenGL commands into the CPU software; unless of course you actually have a high-end GPU that supports OpenGL truly and fully.

Out of the HDX 3D Pro script, when we run Google Earth within a virtual desktop hosted on a hypervisor, no GPU usage, so all the records ends up taking Place the CPU hypervisor. As Windows has a built-in ability for OpenGL rendering using the CPU (opengl32.dll) This is the method in which Google Earth must be run inside a virtual machine. Needless to say, trying to use generic software based on Microsoft's implementation of OpenGL on the CPU of a Windows virtual machine does not perform all that well. This does not mean that it will not work; it only means that its performance is limited. We have many clients that have run successfully with Google Earth in OpenGL mode. In fact, I wrote a recent blog on how HDX Progressive Display can improve Google Earth and other graphics-intensive applications.

/ blogs / 2011/05/30 / hdx-progressive-display-dont-forget-to turn-it-on /

So why can not we open Google Earth in DirectX on a virtual machine? The short answer is that most video drivers emulated hypervisor does not support DirectDraw or Direct3D API. Although I must admit that VMware with the recent release of vSphere 5 has improved its graphics driver invited to support DirectX 9. However, at this time we can not negotiate ICA connections for guest operating systems that use new driver. This means that we are limited to the performance of Google Earth in OpenGL mode.

SwiftShader to the rescue!

As OpenGL commands can be emulated in software on a CPU, it is also possible to emulate a DirectX software on a processor. In fact, there is a company called TransGaming that has produced some / parallel processing emulators extremely efficient and multi-threaded for DirectX. Citrix has partnered with TransGaming to make their SwiftShader DirectX9 advanced engine available for use with Google Earth. By simply placing the D3D9.dll GoogleEarth.exe in the directory where is located, it will be open for Google Earth in DirectX mode of any virtual desktop. The rendering of 3D in Google Earth will always occur in the software running inside the guest operating system and thus on the CPU of the hypervisor. However, the rendering software is highly optimized and provides significantly better performance compared to software OpenGL renderer.

Configuration SwiftShader

Installation and Activation SwiftShader could not be easier as all you need to do is copy the file D3D9.dll in the same directory Google Earth Google Earth and set to open in DirectX. You can set Google Earth to use DirectX mode by launching the "Start Google Earth in DirectX mode" shortcut from the Google Earth folder in the Start menu or by selecting Tools / Options in the menu after Google Earth is open and allowing DirectX as shown below.

There are several configurable options for how the DLL manages rendering. The configuration of the DLL is in a file called SwiftShader.ini, which will be located in the same directory as the DLL. You must not create or manually install the ini file. When you download the optimization pack, you will notice that there is no INI file included in the download. Indeed, once the SwiftShader engine is engaged; it automatically creates the INI file using the default values ​​if it does not already exist. One thing to keep in mind is that if the user running Google Earth is not the change order in the Google Earth directory and is not already on file, the file will not be created and the DLL will just run with the default preset. Of course, if you deliver Google Earth as a Streamed application, the INI file will be created in the folder of the user RadeCache.

There are two ways to configure the INI file with the first being the right method to the former edit it with Notepad. The second way to configure the INI file is to use a built in web utility that works DLL when it was committed. This means that after Google Earth was opened in DirectX mode, you can open a browser and connect to http://127.0.0.1:8080/swiftconfig. A screenshot is below.

There are two key values ​​of the notes as highlighted in the screenshot below.

If you do not want this Web GUI applet configuration to run when SwiftShader is in use, you can check the "Disable server SwiftConfig". If your users have multiple monitors and you want Google Earth to be able to run on other screens while the main monitor, then you must change the "Frame-buffer API" DirectDraw GDI. If you just want to manually pre-configure these options by editing the INI file then you locate and change two lines in the test section as follows:

DisableServer = 1

FrameBufferAPI = 1

as the last consideration you need to give your virtual office 2 vCPUs to effectively use Google Earth Optimization pack. It technically work in a virtual machine with 1 vCPU but it will malfunction.

Bandwidth considerations

Google Earth is an intense graphics application and as such it requires a little more bandwidth than traditional 20-40 Kbps you usually need for office productivity applications. In addition, because the SwiftShader DLL is able to push higher frame rate than the OpenGL emulator in Direct mode will generate a larger amount of pixels that must be sent to ICA. For this reason, users will get the best performance at a high speed LAN or WAN. However, it can be successfully deployed on smaller WAN connections such as DSL when appropriate progressive display or new Adaptive Display policies are configured. I'll post a new blog on Adaptive Display and how it can take advantage of Google Earth after that I present on the topic at Synergy in Barcelona next week, so stay tuned!

Finally, I recorded 8 minutes a side-by-side demo and posted on YouTube shows two virtual machines running Google Earth; one with the optimization pack and one without. Keep in mind that the video conversion process does not fully shows the true reward was displayed on my laptop when I registered, but it still shows the contrast between the two quite well. It is best viewed full screen and 720p.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pcB_S828bQk

Not only does Google Earth Google Earth Optimization Pack do look better, it also makes it much more responsive. When you spin the globe manually or scrolling around a zoom on the map, the performance is much smoother.

If you are a customer XenDesktop 5.5 and need to use Google Earth then I highly recommend that you download using the Google Earth Optimization pack! Let me know how it works for you!

Cheers,

-Dan Allen

Xen.org Update -

Xen.org press: XCP 1.1, Xen 4.1.2 and 4.0.3

In recent weeks the Xen.org community developer released a number of new open source releases:

  • XCP 1.1 released a little there over a week: XCP provides the Xen hypervisor with support for a range of systems operating guests, including Windows® and Linux ® network and storage solution, the Xen API management tools in a single tested installable image. We shall soon see XCP 1.1 support CloudStack.
  • Xen and Xen 4.1.2 4.0.3 maintenance release have been published today, featuring bug fixes and small improvements to the hypervisor.

Xen support is reintroduced into Ubuntu 11.10 (in beta) in Fedora 16 (in beta) and was in the main line of Debian for a while. These Linux distributions use all the components of Xen Linux 3 kernel, which are also called pvops. Also note, that OpenSUSE 12.1 has just released its first release candidate, which also support Xen. In this context, I want to congratulate January Beulich (Novell) to be elected as a new committer Xen. Of course, Citrix XenServer 6 only sent it a few weeks ago, Oracle VM 3.0 and earlier

Events. Asia XenSummit, Nov. 2-3, Seoul, Korea

Less than two weeks to go in Asia XenSummit, where the developer community and Xen research discusses the latest developments, research and where the Xen hypervisor will go. The summit is hosted sponsored by the University of Korea and Samsung and covers some interesting topics. Korea is the home of ARM Xen project, so we will naturally hear much about Xen on ARM. I am particularly happy to " Xen @ Google " talk. With the Xen hypervisor supplying 0% of the public cloud, there will be cloud-related content such as " Deep Dive into OpenStack " and " Skylark: Easy Cloud Computing " .

Events: LinuxCon Brazil, 17-18 November, São Paulo, Brazil

Xen.org helps run the Discovery Days Cloud @ LinuxCon Brazil, 17 to 18 November 2011. We do this by partnership with Citrix, Dell and Rackspace. The track of this program will focus on projects open source cloud computing, but there will also be some content related Xen. I am also pleased to announce that Sheng Liang, CTO, Cloud Platforms Group at Citrix will give a speech at LinuxCon Brazil and give an in-depth discourse on Powered Open Source IaaS Clouds .

Summit begins!

Summit begins! -

Well, finally, it is Monday and summit is the kickoff!

The CCIB is already busy with our partners around the world in their first breakout sessions. I look forward to catching some over lunch about how they were.

There are not even the opening time (which is 14 hours) and we did our first announcement ... Citrix VDI-in-a-Box 5. You can find out more about it here on the blog Kumar Goswami. It is essentially a virtualization solution all-in-one desktop PC for small and medium enterprises.

On the desktop virtualization note, I invite you all to visit our office processing center. This glass instead on data center located outside Solutions Expo Hall, just left of the record, is an example of producing the action desktop transformation. With the support of alliance partners, the office processing center will provide the backbone for event areas and support throughout Synergy where you can experience a virtual branch delivery of Microsoft® Office 2010 Wyse thin clients using XenDesktop.

Refer to the "Powered by Citrix" signs throughout the event underlining the support of data center.

to support the data center and provide the necessary framework to support the demands of the event, the infrastructure of data centers was provided by Cisco and Dell. Cisco provided their Cisco Unified Computing solution with blades and additional supplementation technologies servers, and Dell Desktop Virtualization Solution provided them with their Dell Integrated Solution Stack.

CloudConnectors NetScaler - The future is a hybrid

CloudConnectors NetScaler - The future is a hybrid -

"The industry moves from the PC era to the era of cloud" is a common phrase heard in the corridors of Citrix these days. Some parts of the industry are much faster than others. and the part that moves the fastest is the applications themselves. by this I do not mean "applications are moving to cloud data centers. "well, in fact many of them are running in the IaaS cloud data centers, but it is a side effect of the larger trend.

on the contrary, I mean, today, we expect the applications themselves to behave as a service based on the cloud. We want access anytime, from any device, anywhere in the world. and we always want the current content and applications up to date. This means that applications need almost always be online and connected. And of course we want them fast.

These are the last bits that indicate change. Because once the application is always available, always connected, and always up to date we stop to think of it as an "application" and start thinking like a "service"; something that is always "right there" and we can take advantage of whenever we need. And it is not only the social cost media, games, new media, etc. applications that were accessing our iPhones / Androids / tablets. It is also good number of SaaS applications that we use for work ... we're also access our iPhones / Androids / tablets, etc. In fact, many of us begin to see the "office" (and its data) as another service that can be accessed anytime, anywhere, on any device.

This transition "applications of the PC era" to "cloud services era" is driving fundamental changes in the underlying distribution infrastructure, we intend to ensure the availability, performance and security. Historically, if we think of the application delivery infrastructure, it can be roughly divided into two types:

  1. onsite products - such as application delivery controllers or devices WAN optimization
  2. off-site services - such as content delivery networks

in general, these two different solutions were as they did their thing, they are not not really in the way of the other "two ships passing in the night." But nor do they do anything to help each other. However, we believe that the full optimization of service delivery to the growing cloud of age require two different solutions work together. This is exactly what we mentioned when we announced work with Cotendo last June, and what we do with NetScaler CloudConnector, we announced at Synergy Barcelona today.

CloudConnector NetScaler provides networking solution 'hybrid', covering both devices NetScaler on-site services and off-site managed. In essence, what a NetScaler CloudConnector does is prolong the presence of NetScaler four walls of the data center all the way to the edge of the Internet. By doing this, we actually put the power of NetScaler within milliseconds of end users of any cloud services era NetScaler is fronting

Accelerate the performance of the cloud era service provides an example :.

  • service has users all over the world, so that the use of a CDN to get as close to the Internet as possible edge is logical
  • However, since we want the content of the service to be as current and relevant as possible, the service is probably using things like personalization and location-based services to drive dynamically generated content
  • dynamically generated content is generally regarded as "inconsistent" with a CDN, as they are traditionally a CDN is not content cache at the edge. Dynamic content is quite difficult to cache.

The NetScaler CloudConnector for CDN addresses this fundamental issue by establishing a secure connection and highly optimized directly between the data center and PoPs-de-acceleration Cotendo (PoP) at the edge of the Internet. Coordination between the CDN and Site NetScaler infrastructure allows the use of sophisticated symmetric techniques such as advanced TCP optimisations, compression and data deduplication to run between the data center and the edge of the Internet. This allows all dynamic content that can not simply be cached to speed along the Internet anyway.

more strategic, coordinated with a presence both at the edge of the Internet and within the data center opens up a set of hybrid network services that do more than accelerate mobile services or web hosted w / in the data center. For example:

  • By optimizing the connection between the data center and the PoP closest data center of a SaaS provider, the same hybrid service can be used to accelerate access employee SaaS
  • applications
  • Have security capabilities of NetScaler SSL offloading as high speed, VPN termination and web application firewall at the edge of the Internet opens up a host of hybrid security services
  • combined HDX protocol consciousness with NetScaler security capabilities have interesting hybrid options networking solutions to optimize the delivery of virtualized desktops using the HDX protocol

course on infrastructure site and off-site managed services continue to operate independently of each other. But we believe that the hybrid networking services set the tone for what will be "best in class" distribution infrastructure in the coming era of cloud.

It is safe to say everyone had a good time at the party last night Synergy. I was opium for the UK, Ireland, South Africa and Americas party and managed to take some shots that I thought I would share :)

I wish you all managed to bypass the five different clubs for the part of the Barceloneta beach, I did not succeed, but then opium was fantastic!

Thanks to the team of Citrix Synergy event to really pull out all the stops!

Back to Barcelona -

Well, as good as it is to see all my friends and colleagues in the UK, it feels slightly odd to be sitting at my desk today! I'm not rushing the length of the CCIB x 15 each day or rushing to the Hilton Diagonal or doing laps of Expo Solutions and feet, recognizing, are a bit shocked :-)

since landing back, it was great to hear so much positive feedback from our customers and partners on both Summit and Synergy. Many called "Synergy 2012" and given the amount of work so Citrites put on the events, which is so masisvely motivating to hear!

Before Synergy, I am particularly eager to see the reaction to our Innovation Award videos, the speech as a whole and the super CTO session. Looking back, they remain strong but are joined by the Solutions Expo (larger and buzzier than ever) and the office processing center - those of you who followed me last year know that I love a fact or stat !!

Needless to say, the best part was spending so much time with you so thank you to all who have shared so much information, gave comments, joined me in my commitment to Cava local and empathised when I was tired. I will not change a minute of

For end users specifically, if you have colleagues who would like to hear the highlights of Syergy first hand so do their talking Citrix InFocus - an event organized by our UK marketing team to 23 November in London

I also hope to see many of you at vertical roundtables I organize (financial services, retail, public sector and legal - of hope introduce more next year). and other social events and work, but do keep in touch. To leave until Synergy 2012 would be too long!

Better QoS for XenDesktop with Branch Repeater

Better QoS for XenDesktop with Branch Repeater -

One of the new features of Branch Repeater 6.0 is traffic shaping module that allows a level of better QoS and more granular to provide protocols and applications over the WAN - including virtual desktops and applications. This formatting function of traffic Branch Repeater coupled with the new implementation HDX multi-stream for XenDesktop 5.5 and XenApp 6.5 allows us to prioritize optimally HDX traffic when bandwidth is at a premium over WAN connections (is -he always?).

for a very good explanation of these features, see this blog from Kalyan Valicherla.

What I want to discuss here is how these characteristics guarantee a better experience for the end user while accessing virtual desktops and applications in various bandwidth scenarios in competition. For this, we looked at two sample scenarios showing these features in action:

  1. Traffic Shaping between HDX and not HDX traffic: With traffic shaping, we can assign a higher priority to latency-sensitive protocols like HDX deliver virtual desktops powered by XenDesktop compared to non-latency-sensitive protocols like FTP. thus providing guaranteed bandwidth required for HDX sessions even while supporting a large number of lower priority FTP (and other types of traffic) over the same WAN link
  2. Traffic Shaping for HDX multi-Streams :. With HDX multi-stream, we can apply the traffic policy Branch Repeater to each of the four (4) flow HDX (ie in real time, interactive, bulk and context) group of virtual channels carrying each. These flows are prioritized ensuring guaranteed bandwidth for latency-sensitive Real-time and interactive streams of loose and the bottom traffic. For example, an end user session running HDX mainly Interactive traffic will receive higher priority compared to other end users conducing heavy tasks bandwidth consumption such as watching video and printing large files over the same WAN link. Similarly, more granular performance advantages are exposed prioritize different currents within a single session HDX ensuring user performance of various activities within their own HDX session.

This white paper "Citrix HDX multi-stream and Branch Repeater Traffic Shaping" examines the scenarios listed above in much more detail and provides the configuration steps required to implement these features in Citrix Branch Repeater and XenDesktop

Citrix Ready Showcase - HealthCast eXactACCESS -

eXactACCESS HealthCast received Citrix Ready certification for QwickACCESS and eXactACCESS with XenApp and XenDesktop. QwickACCESS ( "QA") provides secure proximity badge access and convenient access to virtual desktops, streamlining access to VDI brokers or complete solutions for EMR without user interaction. Hospital eXactACCESS single sign-on (SSO) is a single sign-on solution designed for business health care for simplifying secure access to the most challenging existing healthcare systems. You can read more about HealthCast the Citrix Ready catalog.

The following is a video they made their eXactACCESS ( 'XA') E-SSO for Citrix XenApp using the new API integration. The video shows a "doctor "to access their desktop remotely published on an iPad using PhoneFactor as a second factor authentication and roaming their office published a / thin client PC hospital using the access proximity card functionality and secure the published desktop session (ie, "tap-in and tap-out"). they show that homelessness in the hospital, taking the active published desktop to another computer, and they point out that they log on the original computer when the published desktop is shot. they also show the "tap-over" feature where a nurse disconnects automatically and office applications published by the doctor while being simultaneously connected to its published applications that are based on its role in Active Directory. So there is flexibility for physicians to get published desktops, while other users would be limited to specific applications they access.

The purpose of the demonstration video was to depict "day in the life of a doctor" with HealthCast integrated with Citrix technology.

Stay tuned for QwickACCESS with XenDesktop integration using Citrix API.

Announcing the new Citrix Receiver for Android ... with more to come! -

This morning, we released the new Receiver for Android 3.0 in nature. This represents the first of a number of important updates receiver coming in the next four weeks! Following the release of the Android distribution you can expect rolling updates to Receiver for Windows and iOS, as well as formal versions 1.0 for Citrix Receiver for PlayBook and Chromebook by the end of the month!

We are very excited about these new releases! These releases represent the experience of the most consistent end user for Citrix users and receiver. Not only have we completely updated the workspace, but also the consistent process for subscription applications and, when combined with the next Citrix CloudGateway solution, allowing true follow me capabilities across all platforms and all Citrix Receiver clients! CloudGateway will support the full integration of SaaS applications in their stores XenDesktop to deliver SSO to all business applications -. SaaS, Web or Windows

End users also will see significant improvements in the user experience, including the integration of mobile natural features and capabilities, and with the help of the SDK XA 6.5 mobile optimization and virtual end-users will see mobile channels optimized Windows application for Android as well.

This new version of Android also represent some significant milestones including associated partners:
  • integration of the RSA software token in Receiver for much better user experience secure access; and
  • Support for Android x86 implementations for significantly expand support device type.

At the end of the day the most important to think about regarding the receiver is that it provides end users with a way to get all their applications and desktop to any device a consistent and easy to use. This means that end users can be productive anywhere computing can manage applications and services instead of trying to manage users and devices

The heavy lifting. - Management of specific optimization of the device, the mechanisms of access and control, service infrastructure to applications, all applications - is something that Citrix does so it does not have to

as we plan for the new year waiting for this new receiver to set a new bar that we will soon close with other distributions. and platforms. 2012 will be a busy year for us, it begins today with Receiver for Android 3.0.
