1000 MBPS Thin Client

Have you ever wondered why non of any big Thin Client vendors have yet launched 1 Gbps Thin Client.

Well, the reason is quite obvious, and that is the Thin Client technology itself.

Thin Client technology works on following BASIC PRINCIPLES:

1. Keystrokes and Mouse movements are sent from the
CLIENT to the SERVER PC.

2. The Server does ALL THE PROCESSING, on behalf of CLIENT.

3. Then SERVER send "BITMAP IMAGE" of the screen for the
client.

From above Principles you can draw following conclusions.

1. If you Open "a 500 MB file" on a thin client
PC, 500 mb is not going to FLOW FROM SERVER TO CLIENT.

2. It is only images of the apps that will flow from
the SERVER to the CLIENT machine.

3. ONE OF THE MAJOR BENEFITS OF THINCLIENT TECHNOLOGY
IS "VERY VERY LOW REQUIREMENT OF BANDWIDTH"

4. This is the reason, when people want to use
applications in WAN Connectivity, they use
Thin Client technology.

We are not even using 100 mbps:
-------------------------------------------------
Yes that is true, when we use ThinClients
We generally use 20-200 kbps "YES KBPS"

Actually Network bandwidth is not bottleneck for
ThinClient Technology. BottleNeck may be your SERVER.
So if you want MORE SPEED, GET FASTER SERVER.

So if someone is telling you speed of ThinClient
is better because of 1GBPS, then,
NOTHING CAN BE MORE FAR FROM TRUE, than this.


Pl. understand the technology before using / buying selling it.

If you spend some time to understand it, you will end up using
It much better and efficiently.

If you any doubts / queries regarding above, pl. write to me
I WOULD LOVE TO DISCUSS (OR DEBATE) ON THIS issues.
