HP Anyware on Equinix Metal: Deliver automated, secure, high-performance desktops anywhere via Equinix

Companies of all sizes and industries have no doubt felt the impact of the past few years’ remote work needs as they sought to create a secure and productive work environment. And many are now transitioning to remote work as a business advantage to find talent and enable a dynamic and creative working team in the office, at home, and on the road. Rapid shifts in end-user deployment scenarios require innovative new solutions to provide new ways to work. HP Anyware, formerly Teradici CAS, and Equinix enable you to meet these new and challenging business demands.

Challenges

The ever-growing volume and speed of global business data poses a constant challenge for businesses. For many, the cloud no longer meets their on-premises and remote infrastructure requirements without resulting in higher latency, more costs and reduced efficiency. Recruiting and enabling talent needs to also address remote work requirements, whether at home, on location, in the office or in the studio.

Without a solution to access and work efficiently remotely, teams struggle with:

• moving dailies in M&E, design in AEC and CAD, and other workloads to the cloud because of unreliable connections,
• loss of productivity with the lack of real-time collaboration, and
• efficiently accessing shared files.

Now, transform that challenge into an advantage with Equinix Metal and HP Anyware and get secured access to remote workstations and graphics-intensive 3D applications globally. Move your key workloads to remote workstations and globally scale them to edge locations. And, recruit and enable talent where they are located, around the corner or around the world.

Here are the top 3 reasons to use Equinix with HP Anyware and PCoIP®:

1. Be global, live local

Your global teams can work and collaborate in real time from anywhere in the world with network connectivity. Whether working at an office, an off-site meeting, or from home, the PCoIP protocol enables secured remote access to applications and data, while data and content remain in the data center or cloud of choice.

2. High-Performance experience

Using Equinix and HP Teradici technologies together, you get a high-performance user experience where you need it. This adds up to increased productivity on your teams and meeting important deadlines.
