CLIENT SERVICE SOFTWARE

Citrix

This is software we are using daily in our office. This Software is UK based software.

The user here work through citrix environment.

There are two technology available in CITRIX SOFTWARE.

1.Thick Client Software

2.Thin Client Software

Thick client technology requires all the applications installed on the computer locally.

Thin client technology does not require applications to be installed locally and are accessed remotely.

Now we even have applications installed and use remote applications.

The user’s here work on thin client technology , but for the safer side we installed the application on the computer , in case if any problems on the remote Meta-frame server , we can access the application from the desktop.So primarily the users are advised to access applications remotely and citrix is medium use to access the applications remotely , which is called as thin client technology.

A server is set up with citrix met frame server application installed in it.The same configured with HTTP protocols. Now this server is said to be a CITRIX server.

A separate frame set for the CITRIX applications.This farm consists of many sub-server,each one installed with a particular applications or group of applications.
