VMware to Acquire Thinstall

VMware is excited to announce the acquisition of Thinstall, a complementary virtualization solution provider. By using Thinstall’s unique, agentless application virtualization technology, desktop administrators can realize immediate benefits. Thinstall enables the rapid delivery of complex software applications cost effectively and with increased security. Thinstall products require no pre-installed software on physical clients, no new deployment infrastructure or systems management tools, and make it easy for IT staff to quickly, safely and securely deploy virtualized applications.

Thinstall deines application virtualization as the ability to deploy software without modifying the host computer or making any changes to the local operating system, ile system or registry. Using this next generation technology, organizations can deploy custom and commercial software across the enterprise without installation conlicts, system changes or impact on stability or security. Virtualized applications eliminate nearly all of the complexities and support issues associated with delivering and accessing traditional applications for both fat and thin-client deployments. The time and regression testing required to successfully deliver applications and updates is shortened to hours instead of weeks. Thinstalled applications can be run without any modiications or additions to a PC, including administrative security permissions. Applications virtualized with Thinstall operate exclusively in user mode and therefore the host operating system and other applications are protected from potential corruption by installation modiications.
