Oracle has announced the official release of the Virtual Desktop Client application for iPad, available for free download from the App Store on iPads or at Oracle Virtual Desktop Client for iPad on the iTunes App Store

The app provides access to different enterprise applications, including those who require a full desktop, such as Oracle’s Siebel CRM. The users are offered support through desktop virtualization as well as secure access to Oracle’s Sun Ray Software or Oracle Virtual Desktop Infrastructure virtual desktops. After installing the application on their iPad, users must log in with the Sun Ray or Virtual Desktop Infrastructure account and they are free to use multi-touch and gesture-based operation as well as a virtual keyboard including cursor keys.

The fast interface provides multiple tasks and allows users to access different iOS applications. The VPN functionality ensures the users of the app’s security, enabling them to experience highly secure access to all desktops and applications. In addition, the 256-bit AES encryption protects users even in wi-fi connections. The app features an automatic recognition of Oracle Virtual Desktop Infrastructure or Sun Ray Software available servers. The multimedia features are as well included in the Virtual Desktop Client App, with Windows Media Player, multimedia playback on Oracle Desktop Virtualization applications and Adobe Flash Player.

This application is included in Oracle’s complete portfolio of virtualization solutions, from desktop to datacenter, allowing users to efficiently manage their software and hardware stack, from applications to storage solutions. The Oracle Virtual Desktop Client Application requires an iPad or iPad 2, an iOS 4.2 or higher operating system and a Sun Ray Software 5.1 or higher or Oracle Desktop Infrastructure 3.2.2 or higher server and it is available for free at the App Store.
