Singapore, July 22,
2017– Businesses today must quickly adapt to the demands of a global economy
and workforce. Success is increasingly defined by the ability to optimize and
protect the information surrounding people, organizations and devices. To help
businesses tackle these challenges and fully embrace the benefits of
flexibility and scale that cloud delivers, Citrix today announced extensions to
its long-term strategic relationship with Google. Customers will be able to use
Citrix Cloud to provision and
manage secure digital workspaces, including Citrix Workspace Service, on Google Cloud Platform. Citrix and Google are working
together to bring cloud delivery of applications and desktops, and secure
cloud-optimized endpoints to their enterprise customers who are increasingly
looking to both public and hybrid clouds to solve their business requirements
for secure digital workspaces.

Along with these new cloud solutions, Citrix and Google also announced new integrations, available today,
between Citrix ShareFile and Google G Suite that
enable follow-me-data when using Citrix workspace solutions. A new ShareFile
plug-in that allows the secure sharing of files via Gmail and a ShareFile
connector to Google Drive provides users with one place to find all their
documents. In addition, Citrix NetScaler CPX is available now on
Google Cloud and is targeted for availability in the Google Cloud Launcher
marketplace by the end of the quarter. Google Cloud’s emphasis on containers
and the Kubernetes orchestration system will allow the developer community to
use NetScaler CPX to easily build and scale secure applications in the cloud.
