Definition
The automated availability of all required applications and systems, based upon user roles, when end-user systems become unavailable.
Challenges
- Endpoints are difficult to manage, as they are frequently disconnected or off the domain network
- Separate images must be maintained and manually transferred to a new system upon request
- Maintaining a fleet of pre-configured backup systems for end-users is prohibitively expensive and complex
Symantec Solution: Endpoint Virtualization
Provision and protect endpoint environments instantly using streaming, virtualization, and desktop broker technologies to reduce costs and increase productivity.
- Instantly configure a new or home system based on directory authentication and user needs
- Eliminate the need for a separately maintained block of end-user systems
- Leverage a single system for both daily operations and disaster recovery functionality, with no system or resource duplication
- Use the same technology for simple operating system and hardware migrations, with little or no IT support
