The View From NCS Technologies

Healthcare, Zero Clients & Secure Computing

IT administrators in healthcare tell us they are are focused on making computing more secure, more reliable, less complex and more cost effective - goals that make sense to everyone.

Healthcare workers rely on computers and networking in nearly every aspect of their jobs. Patient records and scheduling need to be kept up to date and secure. Imagery such as MRIs and X-rays need to be available and accessed from distant servers. Doctors and nurses are constantly on the move and frequently use carts to bring mobile computing - and the latest patient information - directly into each patient area.

Like other industries, budgets are stretched and not all technology in use is constantly up to date. But the need for greater security, reliability and mobility are causing many organizations to act.

Virtualization is one way to effeciently address these IT needs. Virtual zero client endpoints - laptops or desktops - enable the "anyone, anywhere, securely" scenario because there is no persistent user data on the device.  Anyone can grab any zero client and log in to their virtual environment from any location - in break or meeting rooms -- even in corridors. Because virtual solutions are so helpful in all these scenarios, VDI in healthcare is ramping up quickly.

NCS offers the broadest Zero Client product porfolio in the healthcare industry: Laptops, desktops -- even WiFi enabled desktops! Because the virtual endpoint is hosted on a powerful server in a datacenter, the user experience is always the same - up to date and secure.

The healthcare space is beginning to make the move to VDI.
