Appliance-based workstation virtualization
Easy adoption: Dell Precision Appliance for Wyse eliminates much of the complexity and need for in-house expertise traditionally required by many virtualization solutions, so a staff with limited experience can deploy a virtual workstation environment not in days or weeks but in just five minutes.
Efficient scalability: As your business needs change, the Dell Precision Appliance for Wyse allows you to scale your virtual workstation environment in a modular fashion to meet growing demands.
An end-to-end solution: The Dell Precision Appliance for Wyse can be purchased separately or as part of an end-to-end solution that includes validated thin clients, management software and service offerings.
Graphics-intensive computing, centralized and virtualized.
ISV certification: Deploy and run workstation type workloads, such as Siemens PLM, PTC Creo software and more, with confidence knowing that they have been certified on the Dell Precision Appliance for Wyse. Currently, PTC Creo and Siemens NX, Teamcenter and Tecnomatix are certified.
High-performance user environments: Users can expect the same rich, high-performance experience of an ISV certified workstation application with the Dell Precision Appliance for Wyse as a traditional fixed or mobile workstation.
Dedicated or shared GPU: For maximum performance, enable up to three employees each with a dedicated GPU, or share GPUs with NVIDIA vGPU technology to enable up to eight users – and still experience brilliant workstation performance.
