1 Why Thin Clients are still the right choice Craig Allen Market Development Manager Thin Client Solutions Hewlett-Packard (Aust)

2 As IT organizations evaluate the changes being brought on by the explosion of mobile devices, the rapid adoption of bring your own device (BYOD), the transition from Windows XP to Windows 7, many of them are taking a renewed look at their client devices and at the manner in which computing is delivered. Organisations, are revisiting the concept of thin clients as the user device and recognizing that, "Today's thin client are not the thin clients of years past." Many organisations are coming to the realisation that mobile devices and BYOD, may not be the answer to all their challenges. *Source: IDC Mobile Devices: The New Thin Clients June 2013

3 Meeting business and IT challenges Business complexities Workplace flexibility Global collaboration and communication Agility and time-to-market issues Privacy regulations Cost control IT complexities Manageability Business continuity Data and network security Media-rich user experiences Environmental concerns Total cost of ownership

4 Vision: HP Thin Client Vision, Mission, Strategy Mission: Strategy: I see a world where anyone can securely remotely access and manage business data on any compute environment from anywhere on any device. In that world we intend to profitably lead the workplace Client Virtualization end-point hardware market. Any Network Any Device HP is uniquely positioned to maintain a leadership position in the movement to cloud-based solutions. We will achieve our mission by leveraging HP strengths to deliver scalable, high quality, uniquely differentiated remote access end-point hardware and software CV solutions that serve as the window to our customers business logic.

5 Customer Trends Security Commercial adoption of consumer driven technologies (e.g. cloud) open security holes and supply chain models Mobility Customers want to work anywhere with always connected access to data Multiple smart devices per customer want all to connect New Form Factors Traditional desktop giving way to small and all-in-one form packages Human Interfaces Smart phones/slates/win8 setting new expectations for touch based human interfaces

7 Why Thin Clients

8 Client / Application Virtualization & Cloud = Thin Clients Government & Defense Financial Services Performance Healthcare Reliability Scalability Retail Telecom / Media Education Manufacturing Security Flexibility Business Services

9 80% less power than a traditional desktop PC Reliability reduces IT costs and frees up IT resources Thin Client Benefits Reduced capex through lower device costs and longer lifecycles Thin Client Benefits Centralised management, simplified deployment, less desk-side support Reduce facility costs up to 67% lower energy and cooling demand Increased end-user productivity less support with increased flexibility Secure device locked down

10 Thin Client TCO The increased security, reliability and ease of management of TC s contributes to a lower total cost of ownership for thin client computing devices 79% less downtime cost per user 34% less in maintenance 19% less to operate 16% capital cost savings 48% overall lower total cost *Source: Gartner TCO Comparison of PCs with Server-Based Computing, June 2006

11 The Alternatives Reuse my current PC s BYOD

12 Why not use what I have? The disadvantages of a PC in a Client Virtualisation Environment Higher power consumption Ongoing System component failures (up to 80% higher) Additional management overheads Multiple OS locations multiple licenses Re-purposing PCs to be secure is time consuming and expensive Devices may still be susceptible to attacks

13 Pros and Cons of BYOD Advantages Lower Cost Increased Productivity /Technology Familiarity Flexibility Attractive to potential employees Disadvantages Data Security Privacy Cost Device Disparity Management IT Organisation Burden Device Security
