Citrix is the king of VDI and has looked to diversify into server virtualization, cloud computing and other data center technologies such as load balancers. It’s ironic until recently one of my main personal use cases for VDI was VMware’s own vSphere Client on my Macbook. I don’t see a practical way around it.

The only major things missing from their "Starter Kit" suite they offer are the addition of VMware - not cheap if you choose to purchase it - as well as the addition of a blade (or two) to serve as controllers of the system.

The ability to mash together a bunch of different expensive individual servers and shrink the company’s IT footprint down by a factor of 5x while reducing power and cooling costs at the same time sure seems to be a miracle cure for IT budget problems.

The next step is to define in software the converged network, its switching, and even network devices such as load balancers. Provisioning of the network, VLANs, IP load balancing, etc. By integrating with VMware's Virtual Center, Xsigo provided a building block. This permits physically flatter networks.
