Citrix Cloud is a cloud-based platform, residing in Microsoft Azure, used to deploy and manage Citrix products, desktops, and applications. It manages public, private, and hybrid cloud-based Citrix environments, as well as on-premises implementations.

Here are just a few of the numerous reasons to consider moving to a cloud-based management solution for your Citrix environment.

  • Stay up-to-date on the latest version of Citrix XenDesktop/XenApp seamlessly. Upgrades can be costly, time consuming, and disruptive. Citrix Cloud customers get all the updates first, and without any of the hassle.
  • Free up your SQL infrastructure for other purposes. Citrix Cloud includes all the SQL components required to manage your Citrix environment.
  • Use Citrix Cloud to manage your on-premises XenApp and XenDesktop VDA targets. You don’t need to transition your entire Citrix environment to the cloud to use Citrix Cloud. If and when you do move your XenApp and XenDesktop VDA targets, Citrix Cloud just needs connectivity to the cloud provider of your choice (Azure, AWS, etc.).
  • Eliminate multi-site implementations. And all of the related effort involved in maintaining them. With Citrix Cloud, there’s no reason to have core infrastructure components in multiple locations.

Gotham has been designing, implementing, and supporting Citrix infrastructures for organizations ranging from small businesses to global enterprises for over 15 years. As Citrix’s product line has evolved, Gotham’s services and skill sets have evolved along with it to continually provide the best services available and help our customers maximize the benefits of each iteration.

Citrix Cloud is the next step in that evolution and Gotham is ready to help you make the most of it. If you’re considering a move to Citrix Cloud, contact your Gotham Account Manager to set up a meeting where we can discuss various migration scenarios and how Gotham can help you take that next step.
