SUSE Linux Enterprise Thin Client

Introducing thin client management with the familiar look and feel of SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop. Slash your IT costs and keep sensitive data where it belongs with SUSE Linux Enterprise Thin Client.


Features & Benefits

Pre-configured images
Leverage powerful pre-defined embedded images. SUSE Linux Enterprise Thin Client offers the familiar look and feel of the award-winning SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop—slimmed down to meet common thin client footprints like 128MB, 256MB, 512MB, and more. Working closely with Wyse and HP to certify images on their thin client hardware lines, Novell is delivering the most innovative and cost-efficient operating platform for all your client computing needs.
Desktop lock-down
Slash your management effort. Protect your systems from the unintended consequences of users. Prevent viruses and other malware from entering your systems; stop the downloading of applications that lead to system conflicts; and disable unnecessary configuration options. Implement the right level of desktop lock-down for your business and workers, and watch as help desk tickets plummet.
Data security
What's stored on the server stays on the server. Server-based computing enables the safeguarding of data, while thin clients let you restrict or remove access to peripherals, greatly reducing the risk of losing sensitive data. Moving applications and data off of end-user devices to the data center further reduces security threats while simplifying management.
Flexible image options
Stop wrestling with inflexible operating systems for your desktop environments. The image creation and management toolkit in SUSE Linux Enterprise Thin Client eases the creation of custom client images. Build and deploy images faster, then start reaping the benefits of server-based computing.
Easy updates
Requirements change. So will your devices. Ease the struggle to update your specialized devices and PCs. SUSE Linux Enterprise Thin Client manages initial deployments and updates with ease. Distribute entirely new images or incremental patches—via TFTP/PXE, CD, DVD, or USB. Build your own library of client images and deploy them as needed across your computing environment.
