Now instead of calling these terminal services clients dumb terminals, we
call them thin clients in cloud computing. So you can have your hardware or software thin clients.
Now what this means, this means that basically you either have a piece of
hardware or software that is installed on your computer that can connect to
this terminal services server, a window opens up and then you get your own
little desktop environment with your applications whatever you're going to be
using and you can go and you can work with in that terminal services
environment, just as if everything is installed on the computer in front of you.
So with this terminal services server, all the processing of all the RAM all
the hard drive everything was on this terminal services server you connect to
the terminal services server but something called a thin client and then you
can basically sit down at a desk top and like I say if office is installed, you
can write a word document.
TERMINAL SERVICES IN CLOUD COMPUTING
Well the nice part with this is, you can have a thin
client and be working on a word document. Somebody else can have a thin client
you working on the Excel document another person can have something to be
working out of Adobe Photoshop; another can be checking their email. So
basically all the processing for all the thin clients that are connected to the
terminal services server in cloud computing happens on the terminal services server. Now with the
thin client, you know I thought you said you can either have software or
hardware thin clients. Now software thin clients, all this is a little
application that you're going to install on your computer. When applications on
with Windows computer on Linux computer onto a Mac computer ,this application
what will happen is it will go from your computer ,It will connect to the
terminal services server and then on your computer you will have a little
window that opens up and gives you whatever applications that this terminal services
server is providing. So again if you are using windows 2000 terminal services
server, you connect using it terminal services thin client to the server, when
you connect a window opens up and you're looking at something that looks like a
normal Windows desktop the great part about this is it that desktop and you're
looking at does not reside on your computer it reside on this terminal services
server.
So if your little computer here dies, your data doesn't go away your
application don't go away, you can simply go up to somebody else's thin client
access to terminal services server and get back in in and finish doing your applications
or whatever you were doing. Well now that is for a software thin client that
you would here of hardware. Basically all hardware thin clients are is, that
they're very small very low power computer devices that basically all they do
is they have the thin client application installed on them so that they're
simply isn't powerful enough to be a server.
