Secure, scalable, simplified, and cost-effective VDI and GPU workloads for Nutanix AHV and Hybrid Clouds
Organizations are under pressure to simplify how they deliver desktops and applications in a hybrid world. Users expect responsive and consistent access wherever they work, while IT teams need reliability, flexibility, and a platform that reduces the overhead traditionally associated with complex VDI stacks.
Leostream and Nutanix bring these capabilities together. Nutanix AHV provides a modern and secure virtualization platform, and the Leostream Remote Desktop Access Platform adds the control layer that manages virtual desktop capacity, access, display protocol choice, and user experience across diverse desktop and application environments. Validated as Nutanix Ready for AHV, Leostream gives enterprises a flexible way to modernize VDI, support demanding workloads, and streamline operations without the complexity of legacy solutions.
We reviewed a number of different solutions and recognized that Leostream connection brokering was miles ahead of everyone else.
Many organizations are reevaluating traditional VDI platforms due to rising costs, complicated upgrades, and operational overhead. Nutanix simplifies and secures virtualization with the power of Nutanix AHV. Leostream builds on this foundation with a flexible connection management layer that supports diverse display protocols, centralized policies, and seamless access across hybrid environments.
With integration into Nutanix Prism, Leostream manages pools, monitors usage, and orchestrates virtual machine capacity and power states to optimize resource consumption. IT teams can support persistent or non-persistent virtual desktops, Windows or Linux workloads, published applications, and a range of performance needs—from everyday office productivity to graphics-heavy design and engineering work.
The result is a modern, scalable VDI environment that avoids the friction of complex systems. Users get reliable, responsive access from any location, and IT gains a single control plane that simplifies provisioning, troubleshooting, and long-term management. Whether looking to manage licensing fees, migrate from VMware, or build a new digital workspace strategy, Leostream and Nutanix deliver a clean, future-ready path forward.
While many teams rely on standard virtual desktops, others require high-performance workstations or GPU-backed environments for visualization, 3D modeling, simulation, or media workflows. Leostream and Nutanix support both use cases through the same unified platform.
Leostream’s policy engine is designed to connect users to the right desktop, with the right protocol, based on role, performance requirements, or project stage. Nutanix AHV provides the reliability and scalability needed for day-to-day desktop workloads, while also supporting GPU-accelerated systems for teams in engineering, visual effects, CAD, energy, and scientific research.
Because Leostream supports protocols like PCoIP, Amazon DCV, and Mechdyne TGX, organizations can tune performance to match each workload whether it’s real-time editing, remote design review, or general-purpose desktop access.
By bridging everyday EUC workflows with more advanced computing needs, the Leostream and Nutanix solution gives IT a simpler path to support a wide range of users without adopting separate tools or siloed platforms. It’s a single, flexible solution built to adapt as business needs evolve.
Leostream and Nutanix share a philosophy centered around choice. Discover how this joint solution delivers on that philosophy with a flexible, secure, and scalable solution for virtual desktops, remote workstations, and GPU workloads.
