The UK virtualization firm Leostream continues its rebuilding after the $3 million received in May.
After a fine-tuning of its product portfolio (a still on-going process), and the appointment of an Executive Vice President of Sales and Marketing, the company now closes a major deal with IBM.

As part of the agreement IBM will resell the Leostream Connection Broker with its BladeCenter HC10 Workstation Blade. 
Additionally, IBM will provide direct support for this product to all its customers.

The deal is specially interesting because IBM is already busy in this space with another VDI vendor: Desktone (see virtualization.info coverage here).
The two already cooperated in deploying a massive virtual desktop infrastructure (1,400 PCs) in July.

Nice to see them getting some funding. When I started with VDI the Leostream Broker was the one I ended up with.

Just note: Founded in 2002, Leostream Corporation is based in Waltham, Massachusetts, USA. (not in the UK as mentioned in the article)
