ip expo 2009 - the benefits of a true zero client for desktop virtualisation - wednesday 7th october...
DESCRIPTION
Many organisations are using virtualisation to reduce the cost of maintaining desktops and tightening corporate data security by bringing desktops into the data centre. However traditional approaches using thin clients still require patches and protection from viruses. Attend this session to discover how PCoIP® (PC-over-IP®) protocol a breakthrough remote display technology can help you achieve exceptional data security and lower IT management costs of your virtual desktop infrastructure while providing a rich uncompromised user experience all from a true Zero Client.TRANSCRIPT

PCoIP technology innovationsImage encoding optimised for remoting rich desktops
Host rendered pixel encoding All pixels are host rendered and encoded in the data centre Encoded pixels are broadcast to simple, decode-only devices Host rendering advantages:
► Complete independence from network latency► No application dependencies – future applications will just work► Application performance is not impacted

Applies the right imaging CODECs to the right pixels
Images always build to a lossless state once they stop changing

PCoIP technology innovationsDynamic network adaptation delivers the best experience over any network
Image quality dynamically adjusts to available bandwidth
Responsiveness maintained during network congestion
Uses less bandwidth on constrained networks
Mouse pointer rendered locally to mask network latency
Latency and bandwidth requirements 1Mbs peak bandwidth today, <150Kbs peak later this year Average bandwidths well below peaks Network latency up to 150ms today, 250ms later this year

True zero-client eliminates desktop managementPCoIP true zero clientsExceptionally secure, zero maintenance devices
No Windows or Linux OS No “second Tuesday” OS patches No anti-virus, anti-spyware, … No device drivers
Investment protection Data centre determines performance No CPU, flash or memory limitations Longer life cycle than Thin Clients
No hard drive or fan Low power and heat Superior USB authorisation RDP and PCoIP protocol

Where is PCoIP technology used today?#1 Market share in blade/rack workstations1
CAD/CAM
Healthcare
Trading floor
Media &entertainment
Government
Digital signage& video wall
Centralise large proprietary CAD data files, eliminate heat and noise at workstations, provide third party suppliers secure remote access
Secure patient data in the datacentre, provide flexible access throughout facility, provide high-resolution lossless viewing capability for medical images
Eliminate the heat and noise of multiple workstations, provide immediate moves, adds, changes
Prevent loss of intellectual property, eliminate heat and noise at the desk, exact colour reproduction, use blades for render cluster, support off-shore contract workers
Remove PC from display, reduce maintenance, deliver high‑end 3D graphics
Secure sensitive information, provide secure remote access and peripheral (USB) authorisation
