CLEARCUBE® PCOIP® PIONEER
First OEM to adopt PCoIP as desktop to datacenter protocol
PC-over-IP (PCoIP) is a remote display protocol for delivering remote desktops and applications developed by Teradici.
ClearCube became the first OEM partner for PCoIP with Teradici in 2006 incorporating it in both our zero clients and host adapters for our secure remote access Blade PCs.
In 2008, VMware licensed Teradici’s PCoIP protocol and supports it in VMware Horizon. ClearCube remains the longest tenured manufacturer with the most experience implementing the protocol solving business problems in the Teradici partner universe.
Widely accepted by Information Assurance Officers, PCoIP protocol encrypts pixel transfers with advanced security algorithms including AES-256 and NSA Suite B cryptography.
Zero clients have no operating system to patch, manage or STIG, and no user-writable storage so they are very secure on the high- side networks. Some models have an optional integrated card reader to support NIPR CAC and/ or SIPR Token.
CVDI ADDRESSES BIGGEST CONTEMPORARY IT CHALLENGES
- Distributed (X86) server environments over-consume
- Power, cooling, space, IT staff time, bandwidth, CAPEX, and OPEX
- Need to streamline CAPEX Maximize IT staff efficiency Reverse hardware sprawl
- Optimize desktop & datacenter utilization Simplify management
- Increase organizational agility Disaster Recovery/ COOP Insider Threat
- Cloud Computing
CVDI RESOLVES MANY ISSUES
- Increase hardware utilization by consolidation
Maintains workload capacity and performance
- Simplifies management- in the datacenter- not at the desktop
- Improves efficiency of provisioning, monitoring, servicing, managing, securing, bench-stocking and lifecycle management of the systems
- Reduces amount of IT staff time for infrastructure administration
- Enables hardware standardization:
Unifies the shared model for power, cooling, and security (everyone has same type of access device versus some users with distributed desktops which can be “targeted” based on their work and mission requirements.)
- Provides pathway to the Cloud and DaaS –
The user access device stays the same as consolidation increases and applications & services are delivered differently moving into the future.
SUPPORTING EVIDENCE
- 9%1 to 46%2 reduction in annual IT infrastructure cost per user
- Main savings buckets are IT staff time, resources, hardware (server 50% / network 50%), and facility utilization (57%)
- Blades reduce physical deployment by 75.1% and system setup and configuration by 46.1% Wire once, change-ready nature reduces set-up and configuration time up to 46%1 to 70%2
- Reduced hardware and energy-efficient technology reduces power and cooling more than 37%1 to 76%2
- VDI
- CDI
- Combination of zero clients, blade PCs and virtualization to yield a total of 41.9%3 additional cost savings
Benefits include flexibility, agility, more control over the virtual layer between the OS/application layer and the underlying hardware
IT also found saving in reductions of licensing fees and IT tool costs
- Pooling of systems based on occupancy rates, or application usage
- CVDI for training environments to provide flexible course delivery from text to GPU intensive work loads based on course content and training room needs.
- Blended savings VDI and CDI (IDC)
INNOVATIONS
Automating the key management processes make day-to-day maintenance tasks easier translating into real savings
- IT resources can focus on value-added initiatives
- Physical and virtual resources can be managed in the same way and resource provisioning can be automated
- Problem management can be reduced up to 52.3%3 and maintenance reduced by 49.4%3
- Unplanned downtime leading to interruptions of business operations and revenue loss reduced dramatically
- Average number of annual service incidents experienced in a traditional distributed environment can be reduced by 76% 3
- Built-in intelligence, embedded configuration and provisioning tools streamline set-up, configuration, upgrades, updates, diagnostics and self-healing
