Cameyo的虛擬應用程式遞送技術可提高ChromeOS對Windows App的支援度

Cameyo

Google周三宣布收購能在ChromeOS裝置上執行Windows應用的虛擬化工具業者Cameyo。

透過收購這家公司Cameyo的技術和團隊,將有助於Chromebook等Google產品用戶連結大量Windows應用。本收購案金額不詳。

傳統上,企業若欲在較新裝置執行舊式App,必須仰賴虛擬桌面軟體(或稱虛擬桌機基礎架構,VDI方案),但此類方案有較高的技術門檻,且有延遲性,以及安全管理不易等挑戰。

Cameyo提供的是虛擬應用程式遞送(Virtual App Delivery,VAD)方案,即將Windows應用程式封裝成一個獨立的exe檔案,即可免除軟體安裝程序而在裝置上執行。VAD方案有許多好處,一來因不需安裝應用程式,可簡化管理,IT部門不需擔心更新版本或修補漏洞,二來用戶也不必登入個別虛擬桌機環境帳號就可使用,提升使用便利性。該公司方案也受到許多個人用戶喜愛。

Google去年就和Cameyo合作,整合Cameyo和ChromeOS本機檔案系統,並強化剪貼簿支援以便以PWA(progressive web app)形式執行虛擬應用,並讓虛擬應用程式安全而簡單存取本機資料和檔案。

而現在Google的收購則可讓使用ChromeOS裝置的企業,或是教育用戶更方便使用Windows App,讓Windows和其他Web App可同時在Chrome環境中使用,也能維持用戶使用體驗的一致性。

這樁收購是Google因應微軟Windows 365方案切入精簡終端裝置的回應作法。利用Windows 365,Windows OS和應用可以串流到客戶中心、銀行行員、PoS等僅具基本運算及儲存能力的機器上使用。Chromebook雖然便宜,但支援ChromeOS的企業應用並不多,透過VAD方案,可擴大支援ChromeOS裝置的生態體系(ecosystem)。

Google於5月開始,為能在ChromeOS裝置執行的企業App加入「通過Chrome Enterprise Recommended驗證」的標示,便於用戶辨識已為ChromeOS優化的企業應用。
