Founded by Alex Vasilevsky, Virtual Computer is a venture-backed software company in the Boston area that produces desktop virtualization products, which combine centralized management with local execution on a hypervisor running on PCs. Virtual Computer has developed a type-1 hypervisor that runs directly on end-user PCs, delivering native PC performance and mobility. By running the workload on the PC, Virtual Computer enables companies to have centralized management without servers, storage, and networking required for server-hosted VDI. The technology supports shared image management, enabling an IT professional to manage thousands of desktops and laptops the same way that they would manage one.

Product

Virtual Computer's product is the NxTop® Enterprise. It released the fourth version 4 of its client hypervisor, NxTop®4 Enterprise, in August 2011. NxTop combines a centralized management system with an enhanced Xen-based client hypervisor to create a single platform for any combination of local desktops, remote VDI sessions, and server- and cloud-based applications. NxTop provides IT control of the end-point through advanced management capabilities in NxTop Center.

Virtual Computer's core technologies include a managed client-hypervisor that runs on a bare-metal PC across a wide set of hardware platforms; a layering technology that pulls apart applications, profiles, and data so they can be managed independently; and a mechanism to tightly integrate a centralized management system with a type-1 managed hypervisor running on end-user PCs.
