Nimble Becoming Citrix Ready Technology Partner

Nimble Storage has achieved recognition as a Citrix ready Technology Partner, and its CS-Series arrays have been verified as Citrix ready after a testing process to ensure compatibility with Citrix XenServer 5.6 and XenDesktop 5.

The Citrix ready program helps customers identify products and solutions that can enhance their Citrix environments.

The Citrix ready certification verifies that the Nimble Storage CS-Series arrays have passed a series of tests established by Citrix, so joint customers can leverage all of Nimble Storage’s capabilities in virtualized XenServer environments as well as in VDI deployments involving XenDesktop.

"By verifying that our CS-Series arrays are compatible with Citrix, the Citrix ready program gives customers confidence that our technology will complement their Citrix investment," said Dan Leary, vice president of marketing, Nimble Storage. "Plus, to help promote the value our converged storage and backup approach provides customers, the Citrix ready program provides sales, technology, and marketing programs that showcase our Citrix-compatible products."
