More than a traditional connection broker, VAS empowers a hosted desktop infrastructure with extensive VM management and monitoring capabilities, as well as a complete enterprise access and application delivery solution.

"The VMware VDI initiative has been widely received as a paradigm shift in the way desktops and applications are provisioned, deployed and accessed," said Paul Ghostine, Co-Founder and CEO of Provision Networks. "Our Virtual Access Suite brings to market a complete enterprise solution meant to be the only set of VDI building blocks needed to transform the hosted desktop into enterprise reality."
