A common challenge in today's complex, diverse IT environment is effectively delivering mission critical applications to the desktop. Incompatible operating systems, bandwidth constraints and network protocol dependencies are all common hurdles to successfully delivering applications to corporate clients. Dario IT Solutions has worked with organizations to overcome these difficulties by designing and implementing a Thin Client Computing architecture. The thin client, server-centric computing approach utilizes an application server to execute programs which transfers screen updates, keyboard and mouse strokes to distributed client-computing devices.

The financial and productivity gains of implementing thin client architectures can be dramatic. Server-based application environments simplify and reduce workstation configurations, leading to lowered support costs and extended desktop hardware lifecycles. Additional benefits of this technology are reduced network bandwidth requirements and the ability to deliver Windows-based mission critical applications to any desktop environment, regardless of the hardware platform or operating system.

Think of the Possibilities:

• Total cost of ownership can be lowered by up to 50% per year.
• "Fat" ERP or HR applications can be delivered effectively over low speed network links and don't require high performance workstations.
• Security and virus threats to the desktop and application environments are minimized.
• Application updates no longer require visiting each desktop.
• Field workers can use wireless PDA/CE devices to access corporate databases.

Thin client computing also can be leveraged to provide remote access, application publishing, and disaster recovery solutions, Dario IT Solutions is adept at integrating application server-based technology into your enterprise to maximize the benefits of thin client computing. Our approach includes a review of existing technology infrastructures to assess integration points, design of the thin client environment to assure performance, security and ease of migration and structured implementation and support of the resulting solution.

Dario's Expertise Includes:

• Performing a detailed cost/benefit analysis.
• Utilizing industry best practices for server scalability and redundancy.
• Minimizing client deployments efforts by utilizing automated tools.
• Extending the use of thin client computing/application delivery: disaster recovery, remote access, web integration.
