Citrix XenDesktop použit pro přístup k aplikacím z Mezinárodní vesmírné stanice (ISS)
Citrix idea přístupu k jakékoliv aplikaci z jakéhokoliv zařízení a to odkudkoliv byla dotažena do konce - do vesmíru.
Posádka mezinárodní vesmírné stanice se připojila na XenDesktop bežícímu na Zemi!
At ~11:05am EST, Jeff Williams conducted a one-hour video-based training session on the exciting new CSL (Crew Support Local Area Network) capabilities and hardware. [Crew Support LAN Phase 1 will provide live Internet access to the ISS crew (initially only USOS crewmembers) as safely, securely and reliably as possible whenever Ku-band is available. The access will be accomplished by connecting to a remote desktop session on a remote server (Citrix server) located on the ground, which hosts the virtual desktops, and the crew sees only an image of the remote desktop which does the Internet surfing. Video and audio can be received (but may be choppy or sometimes out of sync). The CSL, a virtual network completely separate from the station-wide Ops LAN, will use existing IBM A31p laptops and existing network hardware. Initially, there will be only one CSL laptop (Client 1) and one CSL server (CREWLAN SERVER) both set up in Node-2. After the initial testing, the CSL will be expanded to include up to four clients.]
