IBM has announced that Jeppiaar Institute of Technology (JIT) is transforming its IT desktop environment by implementing IBM's Smart Desktop Cloud solution.
IBM's Smart Desktop cloud solution adopted by Jeppiaar is being provided in partnership with Verde & Wyse, IBM Business Partners, for virtualization & thin clients, respectively. The full desktop operating system and applications are virtualized on IBM BladeCenter servers and are located in the secure data center/server room environment at the university.
N. Marie Wilson, Director, Jeppiaar Institute of Technology said, "With technology being the core of a technical educational institution, we need to ensure high availability and reliable IT services in a highly secure environment. The maintenance, power, cooling, tampering of assets, and recurring costs over a period of few years had resulted in an increased Total Cost of Ownership(TCO). IBM helped us realize a clear value proposition by addressing our challenges and reducing overall energy costs."
Girish Vasudevan, Branch Manager - Chennai, IBM India/South Asia said, "Desktop cloud computing provides flexible delivery and financial options. IBMs cloud-based solutions gave Jeppiaar easier access to their critical information, virtually anywhere, to help support their business objectives and enhance student and faculty experience thus resulting in increased productivity."
