Server-based computing is a logical evolution of today's networking environments that gives organizations a way to extend resources, simplify application deployment and network administration, and lower the cost of application ownership. This thin client computing architecture results in a high-performance, low-cost way to deploy and manage business-critical applications throughout an enterprise. With server-based computing all applications reside on the server, rather than individual PCs, greatly reducing time and costs associated with network support while enhancing performance.
"Neoware is pleased to join with industry leaders IBM and Citrix to evangelize server-based computing," stated Michael Kantrowitz, Chairman and CEO of Neoware Systems. "This is a perfect forum to showcase complementary technologies from three industry leaders and demonstrate how these products work together to provide a more secure, reliable, high performance environment that saves significant costs and support today's most demanding applications."
