IT needs to become smarter … about new choices

• Some use the word “Cloud” to describe
new consumption and delivery models.

• Regardless of terminology, it is clear that
these new models are emerging for the
enterprise – even if they were first inspired
by consumer Internet services.

• Self-service, economies-of-scale, and
flexible sourcing options – new choices of
deployment – define these new models.

Infrastructure needs to become more dynamic …

What about Integration?

• In order to make the most of your existing IT provision, the cloud
computing should be able to integrate easily with your current
infrastructure
• Key to Uni Systems's enterprise cloud offerings is being able to
easily integrate with customers' existing networks, so that our
services become a seamless extension of those already provided by
in-house IT departments
• Cloud computing infrastructure should allow enterprises to achieve
more efficient use of their existing IT hardware and software
investments.

Fitting Delivery of Desktop Apps to the Cloud

• On-demand application delivery from the cloud not only addresses
the shortcomings of traditional techniques and tools, but also
accounts for a wide range of other important enterprise objectives as
well.
• Enabled by Citrix® XenApp, this ideal combination of capabilities is
based on managing applications in the datacenter and delivering
them as an on-demand service to users anywhere using virtually any
device including PCs, Macs, Linux, thin clients and smartphones.
