Putting the Virtual Desktop on the Move In Hospitals

The annual HIMSS17 healthcare IT conference begins in Orlando in two weeks. NCS will be at Booth #5644. Virtualization will be one of the prime IT topics at HIMSS17. Many healthcare institutions are turning to virtualization to improve IT manageability, reduce complexity, reduce costs and dramatically improve data security.

VDI is a broad subject, and more and more administrators are looking for payoffs outside servers in the data center. As administrators look to the endpoint or desktop level, there is still some confusing over labeling. Endpoints may be called thin clients or zero clients. In fact, a Google search for zero clients will return mostly thin client desktops. So a legitimate question may be, what's the difference?

Make Plans to Visit Booth #29

The Rocky Mountain Chapter of AFCEA is ready to kick off the Cyberspace Symposium 2017 at the Broadmoor Resort, Colorado Springs, Feb. 6-9.

The theme this year is "IoT is Here: Connecting, Protecting, Impacting."The conference will explore the vast changes occurring in how devices connecting to our networks improve efficiency yet challenge security. Attendees from the armed forces and government involved in the IT security ecosystem will attend to learn about new products and solutions, and to hear about the latest industry trends as highlighted in the many breakout sessions and keynote speeches.

Please join NCS Technologies at Booth #29.

HIMSS17 is the year's largest and most influential Health IT conference, and is now only three weeks away. Savvy professionals in the healthcare and IT security ecosystem will come together in Orlando to learn about new products and solutions, and to hear about the latest industry trends as highlighted in the many breakout sessions and keynote speeches.

The event is scheduled for February 19-23 at Florida's Orange County Convention Center and brings together more than 40,000 health IT professionals, clinicians, executives and vendors. Education and the exposure to cutting-edge health IT technology is the focus of HIMSS17.

With a regularly scheduled change in government, IT administrators in agencies and departments may face questions involving staffing and spending levels based on the plans and expectations of the new management team. While uncertainty may be the norm, it is a reasonable expectation that natural disasters, trouble spots and conflicts will inevitably arise possibly challenging IT readiness.

To better address these type of situations, NCS Technologies has created a "be prepared" capability that makes possible the rapid deployment of IT infrastructure into the field without the complexity, weight and footprint of traditional solutions.

NCS offers a wide variety of NCS, Getac and HP Enterprise-branded data center and endpoint solutions integrated into rugged transit cases. These solutions are capable of supporting large numbers of clients in the field without losing centralized control while reducing complexing and delivering ease of maintenance. This approach simplifies the IT aspects of the reset process that must occur upon returning from deployments.

The NCS solutions include:

The Christmas holidays encompass some of the busiest travel periods of the year - probably second only to Thanksgiving in the U.S. As many people are "on the go" this week to be home for the holidays, it is appropriate to briefly consider an NCS IT solution which may be thought of as "networking on the go".

NCS has been in business for 20 years and many of our best, most regular customers during this period are those associated with the military, the intelligence community, the diplomatic service, first responders and other service providers in government and industry. These vital workers need computer and information technology even when the "office" is away from traditional office locations and often in harsh environments. The challenge is to cost-effectively and effortlessly deploy IT infrastructure - even when operating a great distance from a traditional data center. This can be especially vexing when using virtualization technologies.

NCS Technologies has created a portfolio of solutions that makes possible the rapid deployment of this infrastructure - without the weight and footprint of traditional solutions. NCS solutions are intelligently integrated into rugged transit cases - for "on the go" situations. These cases are capable of supporting large numbers of clients in the field while delivering superior manageability and cost effectiveness. This approach also simplifies the IT aspects of the reset process that must occur upon returning from deployments.

The field is often the office for war fighters and first responders and other service providers in government and industry. Workers need computer and information technology even when the office is outside and often in harsh environments. The challenge is to cost-effectively and effortlessly deploy the IT infrastructure - even when operating a great distance from the traditional data center. This can be especially vexing when using virtualization technologies.

We are publishing a new marketing campaign for end-to-end VDI. When searching key words or phrases such as VDI solution or zero client in Google, you may be directed to a broad index of historical NCS VDI content found on the web, and in addition you may see a prominent Google ad headline that reads: " Low cost end-to-end VDI - Simple and Scalable". 

Our message is simple. We can reduce the time required to implement a Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) solution by using a NCS purpose built and optimized end-to-end solution that delivers simplicity, scalability and savings. NCS turn-key VDI appliances are designed using Intel's latest generation, Broadwell-EP processor-based servers running Microsoft Windows in a VMware hypervisor environment - the perfect solution for desktop virtualization. NCS turnkey VDI appliance solutions are comprehensive and include all three elements (storage, compute & network), software and services, and endpoints, to make it easy and convenient to implement. With a suite of hardware and software complemented by quality services, our customers can quickly migrate their user base to virtual desktop environment with a minimum of disruption.

In managing the data center, IT administrators constantly confront issues of complexity and how to best manage legacy equipment and software in the most efficient manner. A new generation of virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) solutions is proving effective in addressing data center infrastructure complexity, while lowering costs and improving reliability.

By preparing ahead, war fighters, first responders and industry can cost-effectively leverage VDI infrastructure - even when operating a great distance from the traditional data center and office environment.

NCS Technologies makes possible the rapid deployment of IT infrastructure into the field without the weight and footprint of traditional solutions. NCS offers hyper-converged back-end solutions and end points intelligently integrated into rugged transit cases. These cases are capable of supporting large numbers of clients in the field without losing centralized control while simultaneously delivering ease of maintenance. This approach also simplifies the IT aspects of the reset process that must occur upon returning from deployments.

Everyone knows that implementing end-to-end VDI can be a large, complex undertaking. Certain groups, such as first responders, the military and some enterprises, need to take VDI into the field. The challenge is to do this as quickly and simply as possible, without the weight and footprint of recreating the data center you left back home.

To meet this need, NCS has created hyper-converged back-end solutions and end points intelligently integrated into rugged transit cases. These cases are capable of supporting large numbers of clients in the field without losing centralized control while simultaneously delivering ease of maintenance. This approach also simplifies the IT aspects of the reset process that must occur upon returning from deployments.
