Penguin Computing Announces Scyld Cloud Workstation 3.0

Penguin Computing, a provider of high-performance computing solutions, has released Scyld Cloud Workstation 3.0, a 3D-accelerated remote desktop solution for multi-user remote desktop collaboration.

New features found in Scyld Cloud Workstation 3.0 include:

• Guest invitations for collaboration—providing temporary accounts to securely share desktops.
• Added text paste capability from local clipboard to remote desktop.
• Added remote desktop auto-lock on disconnect—providing an additional layer of security.
• Updated default SSL ciphers for improved security.
• Enhanced Quality of Service (QoS) algorithm.
• New, improved user interface style.
• Seamless compatibility with version 2.3 configuration file.

“Unlike other remote desktop solutions, collaboration via Scyld Cloud Workstation is more like sitting in-person with other engineers because a user can hand off control of their desktop to simplify collaboration on a project,” said Victor Gregorio, vice president and general manager, Cloud Services, Penguin Computing. “Scyld Cloud Workstation brings collaboration to life, providing a much more thorough and proficient interaction among researchers and engineers working together on a remote desktop. Ultimately, this allows customers a more efficient means to leverage cloud-based desktop solutions.”
