WAN ACCELERATION - Transferring WAN Data at LAN-like speeds
We design and implement High Performing Wide Area Application Services solutions delivering LAN-like performance to branch offices by overcoming both bandwidth and latency problems. We collaborate with vendors such as Riverbed which has earned the

recognition as the "Technology of the Year-WAN Accelerators" by Info/World for 3 years running (2005, 2006 and 2007) and has been positioned by Gartner in the Leaders Quadrant in the WAN Optimization Controller WOC Magic Quadrant.

 
Also, we implement CISCO's WAAS Optimisation architecture, providing complete end-to-end solutions and a seamless integration with existing cisco networks (cisco QoS, Transport Flow Optimisations etc) with c
ustomers ranging from Fortune 50 to Global 1000.

The chart alongside displays typical scalar measures over Riverbed WAN connections:
1. A 6.4Mb email attachment over a 256K WAN took less than 9 secs to complete compared with 560 secs originally

2. a 5Gb Directory Tree was replicated over a T1 WAN  in 12 secs compared to 545 secs prior to WAN Acceleration

SIDEWINDER FIREWALL
EAL4+ Graded Firewall (Aus. Dept of Defense)

Australia's Deprt of Defense (Intelligence & Security) has graded
the Sidewinder in its Network Security EPL (Evaluated Product List) at an assurance level of EAL4+ (the highest).

In the US, the Sidewinder Firewall ensures that IT systems meet DITSCAP (
certification and accreditation process for all United States Department of Defense (DoD) installations)
accreditation requirements, maintains the accredited security posture throughout the system life cycle and subsequently ensures the protection of the Information Infrastructure.

Sidewinder deployments achieve considerable ROI by benefiting companies in terms of employee productivity and overall network operations. Companies experience a 25% boost in network performance (stability and speed as unwanted traffic is blocked and there’s increase in available bandwidth.)

SUSE ENTERPRISE SERVER - Highly scalable and secure Server delivering UNIX-like performance

SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 SP1 is currently under evaluation for CC-CAPP/ EAL4+ certification
(same level and same 
Common Access Protection Profile for Operating Systems as Windows Server 2003.)

Highly scalable and extremely secure, Suse Linux delivers UNIX-like performance, scalability, security and reliability without the need to purchase and maintain expensive and specialized hardware –
Low Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)

SUSE Server deployments have reportedly reduced infrastructure costs of up to 70% in many organisations.


In terms of performance, 73% of the world's 500 most powerful computers run Linux with many of them running SUSE Linux Enterprise Server, whilst by comparison Windows has only two systems in the Top 500 List.





ENTERPRISE THIN CLIENTS
Recent analytical studies reveal that the annual total cost of ownership of thin clients is approx. 40% less than PC ownership in view of the fact that thin client architecture solves the high capital costs associated with PCs (thick clients), mitigates the software (operating systems and applications) distribution hindrance, reduces the hardware configuration concerns at user machine level, alleviates user-induced errors and enhances security control and remote access needs. 


An accelerated growth is foreseen for thin clients, as current shipments worldwide have risen in 2007 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGRs) of 22.8% for units and 12.2% for revenue in the last 4 years. Sales have doubled in the United States and more than tripled in Europe and Asia.

Green Energy  - Thinclient Power/Energy Savings (May 16,2007)
Neoware, Inc. (Nasdaq:NWRE), a leading provider of thin client hardware, announced that its devices that are cost-effective alternatives to desktop and laptop PCs, can help companies reduce computing-related energy costs by up to 90%.

Go Thin to Go Green - Green market (April 04,2007)
German Research company Fraunhofer found that PCs use as much as twice as much electricity as a thin client-server system. "While PCs consume about 85 watts on average, thin clients including their server get by with 40 to 50 watts. Reducing the amount of power used by the estimated 10 million PCs in UK businesses could reduce carbon emissions output by 485,000 tons a year, as well as saving £78 million in electricity costs.

 

From a systems management standpoint environments are standardised and costs for such systems can be considerably lower than for traditional PC environments. The advantages of the thin-client model are numerous. Please follow this link to read for some common benefits that your organisation might find in Thin-Client computing.
