NEWTON, MA -- (Marketwired) -- 03/05/15 -- Kaminario, the leading all-flash array storage provider for midrange enterprises, today announced that its K2 all-flash array has been verified as Citrix Ready® for XenDesktop® versions 7.0, 7.1, 7.5 and 7.6. The certification brings XenDesktop customers a storage array that delivers predictable performance, architectural flexibility and reliability at an average price of $2/GB usable.

"VDI environments allow businesses to streamline desktop management and costs, however, they are extremely taxing on storage systems and present organizations with challenges tied to system scalability, performance and cost," Ritu Jyoti, chief product officer, Kaminario. "We now have a tremendous opportunity to meet the storage challenges of VDI customers with our K2 all-flash array."

VDI customers are faced with storage challenges throughout the lifecycle from pilot deployment to rollout. Designed to handle even the most complex VDI environments, K2 can alleviate these concerns for VDI users by delivering:

• Consistent and Predictable Performance: K2 can reliably handle the worst-case boot storms that would overwhelm other storage systems.
  
  
• Cost Efficiency: K2 is the most economical all-flash array on the market, with effective storage cost per desktop as low as $20. All advanced storage features are included with the array at no additional cost.
  
  
• Resiliency and Scalability: Desktops run undisturbed even in the case of multiple SSD failures. Users and capacity can be added non-disruptively while upgrades and expansions can be carried out with no loss of desktop responsiveness.
  
  
• Ease of Deployment and Management: Compatibility with Citrix XenDesktop simplifies deployment, and because K2 requires no manual tuning and many features are automated, K2 doesn't require a dedicated storage administrator.
  

"We are pleased to have Kaminario K2 join the Citrix Ready program," said Aimee Catalano, Vice President of Alliance Marketing, Citrix. "K2 offers customers a flexible, scalable and cost-effective modern storage appliance, helping them meet the demanding storage needs of a VDI environment."
