Sun Ray Ultra-Thin Clients data sheetSun Ray ultra-thin clients process only keyboard input and screen output, leaving all of the application processing and storage to the server. The user is greeted with a rich, simple experience, while the administrator is rewarded with a centrally managed and reliable environment. Sun Ray ultra-thin clients are simple "plug-and-work," zero administration devices, much like the telephone. And as such, they are completely stateless, meaning they are always on, readily accessible, and easily replaceable. Sun and Microsoft Interoperability data sheetOn April 2, 2004, Sun Microsystems and Microsoft surprised the world by setting aside their adversarial positioning and establishing a new relationship based on cooperative competition. The two companies signed a broad-reaching, 10-year intellectual property (IP) licensing and technology collaboration agreement. With both Sun and Microsoft as full and equal partners, the two companies embarked on a variety of projects designed to vastly improve interoperability. Forrester Research Total Economic Impact StudySun Microsystems commissioned Forrester Research, Inc. to examine the total economic impact (TEI) of deploying Sun's Sun Ray thin-client (TC) technology in an environment that had primarily PC's. This report highlights the benefits of deploying Sun Ray clients as demonstrated from the interviews and analysis of four organizations. The report examines the estimated return on investment (ROI) for a composite organization and represents the aggregate, composite findings derived from the interviews and analysis process, as well as the independent research of Forrester Research. |
