NetApp acquires leading Virtual Desktop Infrastructure player, CloudJumper

NetApp, a leader in cloud data services, has announced that it acquired CloudJumper, a leading cloud software company in the Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) and Remote Desktop Services (RDS) markets. As a result of the acquisition, the new NetApp Virtual Desktop Services (VDS) will solve the most challenging problems of VDS and application management, allowing customers to deploy, manage, monitor and optimise those environments as a total solution from a single company on the public cloud of their choice.

“The ability to provide a consistent virtual desktop experience at scale while keeping data available and secure without sacrificing performance has always been important and is especially critical in today’s unprecedented environment,” said Anthony Lye, Senior Vice President and General Manager of NetApp’s Cloud Data Services Business Unit. “NetApp and CloudJumper provide a simplified management platform for delivering VDI, storage and data management across Microsoft Azure, AWS and Google Cloud with best in class Virtual Desktop Management combined with best in class storage and data services.” 

CloudJumper gives customers a simple and secure path to the future by managing current environments – often on-premises or using older technologies such as Remote Desktop Services (RDS) – in addition to the environment the market is moving to – cloud hosted desktops using Windows Virtual Desktops (WVD). NetApp VDS provides CloudJumper’s customers highly resilient data storage with enterprise-class features including performance, high availability, global file caching, backup, compliance and essential capabilities to help move business operations to the cloud.
