Terminal Server, Networked Apps Help NASA Cut TCO

Overview NASA's Ames Research Center (Moffett Field, Calif.) holds the agency's Center of Excellence for Information Technology (CEIT). With some 4,000 civil servants and contractors working in a mixed PC/Mac/UNIX computing environment, deploying basic productivity applications such as Microsoft Office requires some users to keep multiple desktop machines. As a result, Ames seeks a networking solution for its heterogeneous user population. For the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), providing basic Microsoft Office applications to 80,000 users at 12 sites nationwide is more complicated than it sounds. To aid the process, NASA officials have launched a new approach to networked applications at its Ames Research Center in Moffett Field, Calif., where more than 4,000 civil servants and contractors currently work on Microsoft Windows, UNIX, or Macintosh systems.
