[2] Teradici initially developed a protocol (PCoIP) for compressing and decompressing images and sound when remotely accessing blade servers, and implemented it in hardware.

[6][7] Teradici's protocol or hardware is used by HP,[8] Dell subsidiary Wyse,[9] Amulet Hotkey, Samsung, Amazon Web Services,[10] Fujitsu,[11] and VMware.

On 27 July 2021, HP Inc announced that it had signed a definitive agreement to acquire Teradici on undisclosed terms, with the deal set to close in calendar Q4, 2021.

[13][14] It operated in stealth mode until 2007 when they announced their first products, a blade server card and a small hockey puck shaped client, using a proprietary chip which implemented the PCoIP protocol.

[clarification needed] Images rendered on the server are captured as pixels, compressed and encoded and then sent to the client for decryption and decompression.
