application servers

Overview The University Claude Bernard Lyon 1 in France wanted to improve access to applications for students and employees while strengthening security. To meet these goals, the university is implementing a solution based on Windows Server 2008. Users will be able to more easily connect to multiple applications while on campus and from remote locations through single sign on and Terminal Services. Network Access Protection will help ensure the health of their computers and the network. In addition, better management and deployment tools are expected to improve the productivity of IT administrators, who will have more flexibility and control in managing the infrastructure. Finally, the university expects to improve performance and availability through server virtualization and support for 64-bit technology.
