"Citrix Systems, Inc. (CTXS), the global leader in application delivery infrastructure, today announced it has acquired certain assets of privately held Aurema Pty Ltd. The patented technology acquired in this transaction will improve monitoring and management of processor workloads across Citrix’s application delivery offerings. Collaboration between the two companies dates back to Citrix iForum™ Global 2004, when Citrix announced it was licensing a subset of Aurema’s processor workload management technology to incorporate into Citrix Presentation Server™, its market-leading solution for delivering Windows applications with the best performance, security and cost savings. Aurema provides comprehensive CPU workload management technology that improves the system speed, performance, and scalability of Citrix Presentation Server environments. Aurema accomplishes this via dynamic reprioritization of processes ensuring all users are allocated their share of system resources. Rogue processes that unnecessarily cause CPU spikes will get fewer resources while other processes, which were previously being starved, will get what they need to work; resulting in a more consistent and predictable user access experience. Aurema allows administrators to generate, store, view, and export resource utilization reports that enable better workload management, capacity planning, service level agreement tracking and billing."
