Server Based Computing (SBC)

The biggest requirements in today's IT Network infrastructure are to cut hardware costs, reduce administration, reduce energy consumption and improve security. With Server Based Computing all this can be accomplished.

Server based computing: Its advantages and how it works

Server-based computing (SBC) is a technology whereby applications are deployed, managed, supported and executed on the server and not on the client. Only the screen information is transmitted between the server and client. This architecture solves the many fundamental problems that occur when executing the applications on the client itself. In SBC environments hardware & software upgrades, application deployment, technical support, and data storage & backup are simplified because only the servers need to be managed.

This whitepaper explains the concept of server based computing and defines the main components of its technology. It also describes the advantages of adopting a server based computing environment within an organization.

Points covered in the white paper:

• What are server based computing?
• The benefits of server based computing
• What are thin clients?
• How does server based computing technology work?

Thin clients: benefits and savings of using thin clients

Much is being said about thin clients and the savings that can be obtained when switching to a server-based computing environment. Enterprises which have made the switch are reporting huge savings on support, hardware and upgrade costs, as well as spending less time on administration and end-user support. Furthermore, thin client computing allows employees to telework/roam more easily which is crucial in an age where the number of people telecommuting is forever on the increase.

This white paper describes the advantages of using thin clients as opposed to PCs (fat clients), and demonstrates how thin clients can produce cost savings both initially and over time. A simple formula is explained which allows you to quickly calculate the savings that your enterprise could make by switching to thin client computing.
