For many, it’s become impractical to

run a business on personal computers

today. If they’re not locked down, PCs

can be fraught with problems, from

being attractive to thieves to being easily

infected with viruses and worse. That’s

why, in enterprises of all shapes, sizes,

and markets, thin computing, using cloud

computing or virtualization with simpler,

appliance-like user devices is making a big

impact. It’s more secure, more available,

more reliable, more manageable, more

scalable, and offers a better ROI and

lower TCO than PCs. In fact, analysts have

suggested that thin computing TCO can

be half that of a traditional unmanaged

PC environment.

WHAT’S THIN COMPUTING?

Thin Computing is the use of a powerful datacenter focused

strategy like Cloud Computing or Client Virtualization (using

Citrix© XenApp, XenDesktop ,VMware View, Microsoft®

Windows Remote Desktop Services or Terminal Services,

Hyper-V, UNIX/Linux, or HTML applications) accessed

by simpler, more energy-efﬁcient desktop or mobile

appliances, instead of a traditional PC. This proven model

delivers the productivity people need, at a lower cost

than traditional methods, all while dramatically improving

security and manageability. Analysts agree, replacing a PC

environment with thin computing (thin clients and required

datacenter infrastructure) will reduce energy consumption by 70

to 90%. It’s the most effective Green IT strategy.
