IBM Virtual Client solution components can include:
IBM System x and BladeCenter Servers
IBM System x and BladeCenter servers are built on open standards and offer a range of affordable, high performance,
easy to manage platforms designed to help optimize your datacenter and lower your cost of ownership.
IBM System Storage
• IBM System Storage DS3400 leads the way for organizations to take advantage of consolidating and sharing data within a
direct-attach or SAN solution. The DS3400 offers the opportunity to meet the demands of data expansion, data availability
and flexibility in a simple, affordable disk system.
• IBM System Storage DS4000 Series is well-known for its exceptional performance, robust functionality and unparalleled
ease of use. The DS4000 disk systems are designed to allow you to create a system to handle some of the most compute-
intensive workloads and provide robust functionality while maintaining availability of your data.
Thin Client Hardware from IBM Business Partners
• Neoware thin client offerings enable end-users to run Windows
®
, mainframe, midrange, UNIX
®
, Linux, or Internet applications
on smart, solid-state appliances across a wired or wireless network - just choose a thin client platform, operating system and
software application that best meets your need.
• Devon IT thin clients are more than a cost-effective alternative to standard PCs. End-users can run their Windows and Linux
desktops and Windows, UNIX, Linux and mainframe applications directly from data center servers, enabling centralized
applications management, network plug-and-play conveniences, higher security and reliability, and much lower IT support
costs.
• Wyse Technology and its partners delivers the hardware, infrastructure software, and services that comprise thin computing,
allowing people to access the information they need using the applications they want, but with better security, manageability,
and at a much lower total cost of ownership than a PC.
Middleware
• IBM Director is an integrated, easy-to-use suite of tools that provide customers with flexible systems management
capabilities to help realize maximum systems availability and lower IT costs.
• IBM Virtualization Manager is an extension to IBM Director that allows you to discover, visualize, and manage both physical
and virtual systems from a single console. Virtualization Manager simplifies management of both VMware and Microsoft
®
Virtual Server environments.
• IBM Tivoli Provisioning manager (TMP) helps to enable the process of setting up a virtual client environment on demand
by automating the manual tasks of provisioning and configuring physical and virtual servers, operating systems, middleware,
applications, storage and network devices (routers, switches, firewalls and load balancers).
• VMware applications can virtualize servers, storage and networking, allowing multiple unmodified operating systems and
their applications to run independently in virtual machines while sharing physical resources—helping to improve hardware
utilization, save space, IT staffing and hardware costs.
• LeoStream Virtual Connection Broker software allows a user to connect to their virtual machine with a single user sign on,
providing a great benefit to your desktop users. Functionality includes VM pooling, stickiness, labeling, monitoring, and
reporting.
• Microsoft Active Directory and roaming user profiles. By default, Windows desktop systems store user profile data
(personal configuration settings) on the local hard drive. Alternatively, Microsoft Windows 2003 can enable storing per-user
profile and settings data on a server.
Services
• STG Lab Services helps bring the skills and experience of the development lab to your enterprise through on-site consulting,
classroom training, and skills transfer to your personnel in your System x or BladeCenter environment.
