UCS Thin Client Services
Advantages and uses of the UCS Thin Client Services
- Low administrative requirements thanks to central and standardised thin client operation
- Ideal for use in heterogeneous environments: Users can access Linux and Windows applications equally
- Thin clients are particularly cost-efficient thanks to the considerably lower power consumption compared with desktop PCs
- Simple, rapid maintenance of client hardware
- Hardware monitoring of servers and clients with Nagios (including notification mechanism in the event of collapses)
- The UCS client server concept ensures better distribution of load peaks
- Improved data security as data are only saved centrally and not locally on the workstation
- High failure security as a central backup is possible on the server
- Encoded secret access: a remote connection for the thin clients is possible via VPN
- Open standards ensure a simple adaptability and easy extension of UCS Thin Client Services
- Double manufacturer independence: UCS Thin Client Services support any thin client hardware and function on the server side independent of the technologies employed to provide the applications
- UCS Thin Client Services are completely Open Source software
