Server-based computing is a logical evolution of today's networking environments that gives organizations a way to extend resources, simplify application deployment and administration, and lower the cost of application ownership.
The server-based computing model employs three critical components. The first component is a multi-user operating system that enables multiple concurrent users to log on and run applications in separate, protected sessions on a single server. The second one is a highly efficient computing technology that separates application's logic from its user interface, so only keystrokes, mouse clicks and screen updates travel the network. As a result, application performance is band-width-independent. The third key component is the centralized application and client management which enables large computing environments to overcome the critical application deployment challenges of management, access, performance and security.
