2X recently announced the release of the 2X Server Based Computing Guide, which describes ways in which to optimise IT network infrastructures while cutting hardware, energy and administration costs.

Businesses worldwide face an escalating desktop PC management problem, requiring tremendous resources, both in staff and capital. As a result, the typical IT infrastructure has become increasingly complex, resource-intensive, and expensive.

"Only the more advanced thin client approach will be able to outdo cost intensive Windows fat clients in companies' networks. Desktop Centralisation like Vmware's Virtual Desktop Infrastructure or Microsoft's Terminal Server can stop the day-to-day fat client management and maintenance from becoming a bigger headache. At 2X we are proud to contribute to this by presenting the Server Based Computing Guide explaining how to use 2X thin client technology to distribute desktops and applications to cost efficient thin clients and converted PCs," said Nikolaos Makris, CEO of 2X.
