Citrix's Project Tarpon will add Softricity-like application streaming capabilities to Presentation Server environments. It will also enable the streaming of applications directly to Windows workstations. It's been over a year since Citrix first announced Tarpon, and it now looks like the product will be released soon.

This conversation (recorded on Dec. 14, 2006) is part of the series of interviews I did when I visited Citrix's Ft. Lauderdale headquarters a few weeks ago. In it, I talk to Citrix's Aaron Cockerill, Manu Chauhan, and Tim Graf about what Tarpon will be, how it will work, and how it will integrate into Citrix's other application delivery products.

This podcast goes more in-depth than previous articles have, both from a product functionality standpoint and strategy standpoint.

Note: In this podcast, Aaron mentioned that he had a video he would provide me that demonstrates Tarpon's application profiling capability. Aaron is on vacation this week, but I'll get the video from him the first week of January and post the link here.

Hi Ruben,
 
your videos are a great idea, but without any voice it´s a little boring and hard, to follow the videos. Any chance, to provide them with some sound and comments from your side?
 
Thanks Frank
