This also prevents Tera1 PCoIP Zero Clients from achieving VMware Ready certification for VMware Horizon 6 or higher. The Tera1 processor and firmware has reached the end of its Product Life Cycle due to insufficient storage capacity to take on new features.
Tera1-based products have enjoyed an eight (8)-year-long service life in Remote Workstation or VMware Horizon deployments. The Tera2 provided five times the VDI pixel performance of the Tera1, halved the typical consumption to just 6W and also introduced support for quad display, as seen in the 10ZiG V1200-QP Zero Client.įollowing the Tera2’s release, VMware continued, and still continue to provide Tera1 support for new releases of Horizon with View, however Teradici have announced that the Tera1 Zero Clients will not support any Horizon releases after 6.0.1. Moving forwards to 2012, and following continued success in the VDI space, Teradici announced the successor to the Tera1 with the introduction of the Tera2 processor, as seen powering the 10ZiG V1200-P Zero Client. Following this, the 10ZiG V9000 Tera1 PCoIP Zero Client became the first choice of many 10ZiG VMware customers. Seen as one of the most exciting start-up companies in the industry, PCoIP was quickly integrated into VMware’s offering, culminating in the release of VMware View 4.0 featuring PCoIP in 2009. The new protocol offered consolidation of IT resources, encrypted transmissions (alleviating the risks associated with transmitting data across networks), and high-end performance (CAD/CAM) at any desktop, anywhere. The Tera1100 Processors will no longer support future VMware Horizon Releases after 5.3Īfter founding and developing PCoIP Technology behind closed doors for three years, Teradici publicly launched the protocol in 2007 with their first gen Tera1 processors and Remote Workstation products.
