Citrix Provisioning Services fulfills the need of virtual disk streaming over networks. The product allows virtual disks to be provisioned and reprovisioned in real time from a single shared disk image or from a dedicated disk. The product also aids to avoid the necessity to manage and patch discrete systems. Instead, all image management is through the master image, and this results in a reduction of power usage, system failure rates, and security risks.
