Intel(R) vPro(TM) technology is made up of specific CPUs, chipsets, NICs, and firmware. It is the Intel promise, year on year, to deliver the innovation businesses need to solve their core IT issues. Reaching PCs that are off or where the OS is inoperable – be it for remote remediation or power management – has been the core value of Intel vPro technology for the last three or four generations both on desktops and laptops. However, the value proposition for PCs with Intel vPro technology is expanding to support new models for PC virtualization. PCs with Intel vPro technology uniquely support Intel Virtualization Technology (Intel VT-x and Intel VT-d) as well as Intel Trusted Execution Technology (Intel TXT). When these technologies are combined together with emerging software support from industry leaders like Citrix and VMWare, cool new use models are enabled – the best of thin and rich meet in DVC. The hardware supports the creation of a hardware layer hypervisor that enables the creation of virtual containers where apps and even the OS can be streamed to the PC for local execution. These images have an added measure of trust through the use of Intel TXT to create a measured execution and protect against root kit attacks. VT-d allows the virtual containers to gain access to the PC’s graphics processing unit or GPU allowing video intensive applications to function as they were intended to. Plus with hardware virtualization support only in Intel vPro technology, the virtual containers can be more cleanly wiped from memory. With PCs supporting Intel vPro technology you can be prepared for the next wave of virtualization and reap the benefits of have in built in manageability, built in security, and great performing PCs in your business today.
