“We are getting out of IT hero worship. You know, the guy who comes in early and stays up all night to put out an IT fire. Soon, you will be rewarded for preventing fires in the first place.” – Nora Denzel, Sr. V.P. HP, CRN 6-14-04
| Day Zero, sometimes call Zero Day® Protection, not limited to security issues, is all about preventing IT problems before they begin. Since 1997 triCerat has been identifying, isolating and documenting limitations in Windows Terminal Services and Citrix Metaframe. With innovative software solutions we have been able to addresses these known technical limitations and solve problems even before any harm is done, leaving your organization with piece of mind to focus on more revenue producing projects. |
| IN 1997, Citrix licensed its MultiWin™ technology to Microsoft, providing the basis for what is know called Terminal Server. The technology enabled Windows to function as a multi-user operating system so that some number of people could simultaneously access unique instances of the same application from the same server. The platform has evolved from its early days when it was used for delivering fat, client-server applications to remote workers, and now serves as the basis for what Citrix calls, “Access Infrastructure for the On-Demand Enterprise.” Largely because of advances made by Citrix, tens of thousands of organizations around the world have adopted Terminal Server – and the server-based computing paradigm. Doing so, they can effectively centralize, secure, and streamline the delivery of data, heterogeneous applications, and Web-based computing services – creating significant cost savings and operational benefits. |

| Stripping away the need for building and supporting robust localized IT infrastructure means businesses can easily support remote offices and individual workers (e.g., telecommuters) or expand and contract their operations when and where such moves make sense – at nearly a moment’s notice. This is the very nature of an on-demand enterprise. |
Business functions and models made possible by server-based computing are wide ranging and compelling:
• Remote offices
• Software as a service (Application Service Provider)
• Telecommuting
• Off shoring white collar and customer support jobs
• Business continuance / disaster recovery
• Business aggregation following mergers or acquisitions
• Follow-the-sun operations – allows businesses to hand work off to remote operations as the work day ends
• Bringing the enterprise to the customer – lets businesses work effectively on site at customer locations |
| Windows was initially developed as an operating system for desktop computers. Subsequent releases have bolstered its performance and stability, yet without Terminal Server, Windows would be incapable of effectively supporting multiuser environments. |
