Now Citrix has for a long time, support for most of the different hypervisors. Meaning that customers gets the flexibility to choose a number of different hypervisors if they are planning to use XenApp/XenDesktop. This support is also included for Netscaler as well.

So as of today, Citrix supports XenServer, Hyper-V, Vmware, Amazon, Cloudplatform. As well as Azure support is on the way. Meanwhile a month back, Citrix announced a partnership with Nutanix, and stating that Acropolis Hypervisor was Citrix ready for XenApp/XenDesktop and Netscaler and Sharefile as well. This means that the customers will get a better integration between the hypervisor as well as support for the product on the Nutanix Hypervisor.
