Leostream Solutions for Manufacturing
Manufacturers rely on IT systems to facilitate close collaboration with partners, contractors, suppliers, and customers. To support R&D and design, manufacturing organizations need systems that offer high-performance for processing- and graphics-heavy applications, while also ensuring that data and intellectual property remain secure.
Leostream helps manufacturers by providing virtual desktops that are centrally managed, isolated, and support the secure, rapid exchange of information required by bandwidth-intensive applications such as CAD/CAM programs. Leostream integrates high-performance systems into VDI, including IBM® BladeCenter® HC10 workstation blades, HP® blades, and the Sun™ Sun Ray™/SRSS system of DTUs, by supporting the advanced protocols used by these systems such asTeradici™ PC-over-IP®, HP RGS, Sun ALP, and others.
Manufacturers depend on Leostream Connection Broker policies to configure workstations to meet both corporate security requirements and the access needs of end-users. For example, policies can be established to enable a particular application to be used only at a specific client device. In addition, end-user environments can be configured using granular policies that control desktop delivery based on location, user role, as well as peripheral use rights – including USB lock-down. With Leostream, desktops are delivered via remote viewer protocol, meaning that end-users interact seamlessly and securely with applications and data without direct access to the corporate network.
With Leostream, manufacturers benefit from:
- Robust reliability and performance: Provides secure, high-performance remote access to CAD/CAM and other graphics-rich programs.
- Improved collaboration: Enables hardware- and location-independent access for offshore partners and employees.
- Plug-and-play integration: As a vendor-independent solution, the Connection Broker seamlessly integrates high-performance remote workstation systems and protocols.
- Enhanced desktop security: Protects sensitive intellectual property and data by implementing customized policies for users and resources.
- High availability: Ensures a scalable, resilient, and “always-on” solution, mitigating the risk of system downtime.
