Notes de l'éditeur
VDI: enables per-user customization, and not all apps are compatible with session concept TS: requires less hardware than VDI, is slightly more scalable, and arguably less management
2007 Gartner study: global carbon emissions from IT = 2% of total. But IT can have a significant impact on reducing “the 98%.” Paperless processes: Samaritan Ministry – multi-site access to case management files. Clinica del Pueblo – EMR. Smart buildings: e.g. Cisco products. Online faxing: eFax, myFax, RingCentral
Staff productivity, morale Financial: office space savings Studies: e.g. WWF study linked below
Simulating multiple computers with a single computer. Enables consolidation of server hardware.
Similar to Terminal Services, with isolation at the OS level vs the session level Clients: desktop, laptop, terminals (Wyse, N-Computing, etc.) VDI: enables per-user customization, and not all apps are compatible with session concept TS: requires less hardware than VDI, is slightly more scalable, and arguably less management
VoIP: voice traffic on data networks. Use analog telephone adapter, softphone, or VoIP phone. Cheaper long distance, virtual phone numbers. Skype! IP Telephony: Taking voice data out of the PBX: Web/email integrated voicemail. PBX: Private Branch Exchange, traditionally serves 1 office. Virtual PBX = hosted PBX. e.g. Ring Central, Vocalocity (eliminates long dist charge), VoiceNation (best @ unifying sites into 1), Virtual PBX. Buy/build/host: Buy Nortel, Avaya. Build with Asterisk. Host with third party vendor. Apptix, Aptela, iCore, etc.
