Linux Terminal Services - S2D
S2D
is a server based solution that provides end user computing via both
the Intranet and Internet, all in a maintenance free environment. S2D
incorporates the security of Novell SLES 9, the robust virus free
experience of Linux, and delivers the desktop in a server centric
environment.
Maintenance free Environment
There
is no software or footprint at the workstation, thus requiring little,
if any, desktop management. No more updating software at the desktop,
managing virus penetration and desktop lock down at the desktop. IT
maintenance just got a lot easier.
No New Desktop Hardware / Constant Refresh
S2D
empowers organizations to utilize existing workstations as thin clients
with localized hardware capabilities, if desired. Districts can leverage
previous technology expenditures by utilizing older workstations(486,
PII, etc.) that are not capable of operating newer versions of an
operating system.
Virus Management Equals System Stability
Due
to how S2D and Linux are designed, there are no embedded links to allow
viruses to propagate through the system. If a user does get a virus,
they are simply deleted from the user list, a new ID and PW is issued
and they have full access to their files. No downtime for the desktop
computer, no downtime for the user, no downtime for IT.
Portability
S2D
provides the unique feature of portability. Local and secure remote
access to users productivity office suite, general purpose open source
software or mission critical software is a reality through multiple
access methods including a browser. This empowers users to access their
data 24/7 worldwide with Internet connectivity.
Integration / Deployment
S2D
can integrate with any existing network environment, however by
combining Virtual Classroom with Novell SLES 9, Lumen's Linux
distribution knowledge and Novell Identity Management capabilities
result in a world-class secure solution.
Applications
S2D
is perfect for front line straight office suite computing and browser
access. This represents the bulk of work the majority of users do on a
computer. In addition, the system provides e-mail, graphic packages, and
access to other open source applications.
Multiple Environment Stability
S2D
can stabilize other environments by providing additional virus
protection as the system will allow dual boot into RDP, web based
applications / legacy system access.
