Sealed Systems are a leap forward in computer innovation. They are an
inexpensive
solution to the costly problems you face with popular operating systems and software.
Here are some of the reasons why companies are deploying them:
- Business Continuance - Sealed systems are not vulnerable to most computer
viruses, attacks engineered by teenagers, and most other security issues. While companies
are running their businesses at reduced capability during times of virus attack and
security issues, sealed systems are unaffected and run at full capacity.
- Business Continuance - In disaster recovery scenarios, sealed systems can be
restored in one-fifth the time (or less) than conventional systems. This may make the
difference in getting the IT part of your business back to full capacity before other
departments.
- Lock Down - One of the reasons why tech support costs are so high is users who
muck up their desktops by making unauthorized changes. Many businesses have spent a fortune
trying to lock down their systems so users can't make changes and have had varying degrees of
success. Sealed systems are inherently immutable - they can't be changed by their users. This
translates to lower tech support costs.
- Critical Patches/Updates -
Your existing systems require frequent installation of critical patches and updates to keep them
secure. Sealed systems are designed to be reliable and secure. Updates are far less frequent and
rarely critical. Sealed systems are updated via routine updates from your sealed system supplier.
- Hardware Upgrade Cycle - Sealed systems are easier on computer resources
than the software you're using now. This translates to a longer service life for your computers.
Although computers are inexpensive, the cumulative costs associated with replacing them are high. When you must
replace your hardware, sealed systems can be reinstalled in about 15 minutes or less and don't require
tech support people to perform the upgrade.
- Down Time - Sealed systems are designed to be reliable. Crashes are rare. They are a
low cost way of achieve the "five-nines" reliability (99.999%) offered by more expensive systems.
Sealed systems have a Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) that's well below any comparable
technology. This course will put numbers to it and answer your concerns about long-term
support, sole-source issues, and compatibility with your existing and legacy systems.
Who should attend?
This course is designed for decision makers who need to understand the cost benefits of this
new technology.
Prerequisites
You should have a basic understanding of computer systems and an idea of the costs involved in
deploying and maintaining them. You do not need to know the details of computer operating systems
and application software.
