Desktop blade PCs on tap from HP

摘要

HP is designing a thin-client-like blade PC that sources say will centralize the task of managing individual desktops by moving their intelligence to data centers, where access and security can be controlled more easily With blade PCs, employees have a monitor, keyboard and mouse on their desks, along with a client appliance linked to centrally located blade servers packed into a data center chassis. Spare blades could be configured to provide hot backup in case of a failure. The idea is that IT more easily could control access to resources in centrally located racks of servers than in widely dispersed PCs.
