Server-Based Computing
|
|
Enterprises today need more from their
applications than ever before. ICT professionals demand more manageability,
scalability and security. Corporate managers need more productivity and
availability. End users, whether they are at corporate headquarters, in branch
offices or on the road, need fast, easy access to business-critical
applications. Now you can meet all of these growing demands an innovative server-based computing solution
from PIC Co. |
Server-Based computing (SBC) or Server-centric computing is
a logical evolution of today's networking environment. It looks like when you host your applications and data
centrally on a server, like the old days of mainframes and text terminals. But
today it is possible to run modern Web and Windows™ -based software, as well
as Linux and .Net using this SBC architecture. It is more secure, more
manageable, more affordable and more reliable than a client-server architecture
where data and applications reside on PCs spread throughout the organization.
This is the simple beauty of server-centric computing.
Some potential benefits of SBC architecture:
|
|
Accelerates the deployment while extending
the reach of business-critical applications. |
|
Manages the deployment and upgrade
of business-critical software, easily, quickly and effectively |
|
Employ virtually any type of
computing device (including but not limited to Windows®-Based
Terminals, PCs, UNIX® workstations, wireless devices,
Information Appliances and Thin Clients) |
|
Reduce your Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) |
|
Lets you centrally manage mission-critical
applications while leveraging your current computing
infrastructure (Hardware, Software, Networks, and Training) |
|
Provides cost-effective, manageable solution for getting
business-critical applications to users anywhere and anytime they are needed. |
How does SBC work?
|
|
The server-based computing model
employs three critical components: |
|
- The first is a multi-user operating system
that enables multiple concurrent users to log on and run applications in
separate, protected sessions on a single server.
- The second is a highly
efficient computing technology that separates the application's logic from its
user interface, so only keystrokes, mouse clicks and screen updates travel the
network. As a result, application performance is band-width independent.
- The
third key component, centralized application and client management, enables
large computing environments to overcome the critical application deployment
challenges of management, access, performance and security.
|
|
|
Under the
server-based computing model, applications are deployed, managed, supported and
executed 100% on a server. |
Industry solutions:
SBC gives SMEs a way to extend resources, simplify
application deployment and administration, and lower the Total Cost of
application Ownership (TCO). SBC solutions could easily fit in the
following industries:
|
Education |
|
Government Organizations |
|
Health Care |
|
Retail Sector |
|
Hospitality |
|
Transportation |
