NCS Booth #608 Welcomes Opening Day Crowds

The Defense Health Information Technology Symposium (DHITS) opened today at the Caribe Royale Hotel and Convention Center, Orlando. The Defense Health Agency (DHA) is a joint integrated Combat Support Agency that enables the Army, Navy, and Air Force medical services to provide a medically ready force and ready medical force to Combatant Commands in both peacetime and wartime.

We are happy to report crowded aisles and steady traffic at the NCS booth, #608, where Joe Guest, Matt Cooke and Linda Letosky are on hand.

NCS is promoting much of its solutions portfolio, including end-to-end virtual networking, Getac rugged PCs and servers, medical carts, and rugged cabinets.

So far, much of the booth activity has centered on understanding how best to jump into VDI, or virtualizing the desktop.

NCS VDI solutions all are focused on improving manageability, driving down cost of ownership and improving security.

NCS Meets Healthcare IT Needs

HIMSS17, the year's largest and most influential Health IT conference, is completed. What did we learn this week?

Data Security - We learned that IT administrators remain very concerned about the security of patient data and of IT computing assets.

Desktop Virtualization - Administrators are continuing to explore ways to make their networks and computers less complex, easy to administer and less costly to own.

High-Performance Computing Platforms - Visitors expressed a desire to make sure their computing assets could adequately serve the needs for virtual reality applications and 3-D modeling. 

When if comes to protecting patient data and over-all healthcare IT security, NCS believes VDI has a strong role to play. NCS is one of the industry's leading innovators in the virtualization space, and NCS is well known for its zero client virtual end points. Over the past few years we have educated IT administrators that implementing zero clients helps improve overall IT manageability and delivers strong security and cost effectiveness right to the desktop - where it is needed most.

NCS is a leading supplier of high-performance computing platforms, such as Vortex workstations and converged appliance offers, typically to enterprise and government agencies, such as defense and intelligence, needing CAD rendering, 3-D modeling and improved graphics performance through hardware virtualization. But the power of our high-performance computing platforms are equally cost effective and accessible for healthcare applications!

Day 3 at NCS Booth #5644

Our staff is busy meeting with industry participants at HIMSS17, the year's largest and most influential Health IT conference. NCS is showcasing a broad technology portfolio at our booth. It turns out that the talk around the show appears to be in three major areas: data security, virtual reality applications and 3-D modeling. Whether you are approaching these areas because of a need for desktop virtualization and VDI, or facing other challenges that call for high-peformance computing platforms, NCS has industry-leading solutions to address any challenge.

In healthcare we are well known for our Cirrus family of desktop and laptop virtualized end points and have success stories all over North America and overseas to prove it. Our higher-performance computing platforms, such as Vortex workstations and our converged appliance offers, are more typically found in enterprise and government agencies, such as defense and intelligence, needing CAD rendering, 3-D modeling and improved graphics performance through hardware virtualization. But the power of our high-performance computing platforms are equally cost effective and accessible for healthcare applications!

Strong Interest in Solutions at NCS Booth #5644

For many, President's Day created a long holiday weekend. But for the folks in Orlando, today is Day Two of HIMSS17, the year's largest and most influential Health IT conference. NCS is showcasing a broad technology portfolio at our booth, with a strong emphasis on virtualization.

Please stop by our booth and say hello to our staff who will be in the area. Linda, Matt, Mike and others will be happy to demonstrate our zero client computing portfolio and our Workstation on Wheels (WOW) solution.

NCS Booth #5644

HIMSS17 is the year's largest and most influential Health IT conference, and is now only three days away, kicking off Sunday night in Orlando. The focus is one healthcare IT products and solutions, and to hear about the latest industry trends.

In the healthcare industry, NCS is well known for its zero client virtual end points. IT administrators have learned that implementing zero clients helps improve overall IT manageability and delivers strong security right to the desktop - where it is needed most.

NCS also pays strong dividends in mobile healthcare environements, such as in medical carts, and with zero client laptops and notebooks carried to conference rooms and to patient bedsides.

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 #5644

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.

Please join NCS Technologies at Booth #5644. 

Visit NCS at Booth #1337

Come visit NCS at Modern Day Marine September 27-29 at Marine Corps Base, Quantico, VA! Modern Day Marine is co-sponsored by Marine Corps Base, Quantico. The base is home to Combat Development Command and the Systems Command. MCB Quantico is responsible for setting requirements, developing equipment and systems and purchasing the equipment that the Marines will rely on in the coming years. These vital functions play a large part in positioning Modern Day Marine as the premier military equipment, systems, services and technology exposition.

At Booth #1337, NCS will showcase of range of innovative technologies that are the best line of defense against cyber threats.

Of particular interest to the military, NCS is a leading supplier of deployable Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) solutions and a comprehensive portfolio of zero client end point solutions. In addition, NCS is a leading supplier of rugged servers, such as the Bunker XRV-5241 1U short-depth server, which is engineered to fit into tight spaces and endure harsh conditions on land or at sea. 

NCS VDI Solutions at Booth #759

NCS Technologies is demonstrating our complete VDI portfolio at VMworld 2016 through tomorrow. Visitors are learning that NCS virtualization solutions reduce complexity, improve manageability and reduce costs.  

NCS is showcasing our complete zero client end point portfolio.

Laptops: NCS offers the Cirrus LT with a 14-inch screen and Cirrus LT Plus, offering a generous 15.6-inch HD display. Visitors are excited to learn about the full keyboard and optional 4G broadband!  

Desktops: NCS zero client desktops support two and up to four displays. Very popular at VMworld is the new Cirrus DT WiFi, which is ideal for portable use or placement in those hard-to-serve areas. Cirrus DT WiFi is in very strong demand in healthcare scenarios.

Zero Clients Are Better at the End Point

NCS zero clients are managed by VMware Horizon software and use the ultra-secure Teradici PCoIP remote display protocol.  PCoIP transfers the image of software running on a central server to the virtualized end point. At that end point, there is no persistent data, no patching or updates and no antivirus software needed. At VMworld, IT people love it when we explain how PCoIP optimizes network efficiency to deliver a superior end-user experience, even on multiple displays. You simply can't get the PCoIP experience if you go "thin client".
