SAVVIS to Deliver Worldfs First Virtualized Desktop Utility Service

SAVVIS, Inc. (www.savvis.com), a provider global IT utility service provider today announced and demonstrated a new desktop utility computing service that integrates the Sun Microsystems Sun Ray™ thin client technology with SAVVIS’ virtualized IT utility services platform and management systems.

This innovative service extends the power of utility computing from the data center to the desktop. Applications and data are secured, archived, and delivered via SAVVIS’ virtualized IT utility platform, which is designed to provide server cycles, storage capacity, and network bandwidth as an on-demand service.

The service is initially available in Europe, with plans for expansion to the U.S. later this year. It is currently deployed and being tested by a leading financial institution in Europe. Due to the interest levels from potential customers, SAVVIS has created a 14 day trial program to allow potential customers to more easily see the significant benefits this solution can bring.

End-users will see improved reliability of their systems as the Sun Ray thin client has no local disk drives or processors that could be points of failure. IT professionals will be pleased with the improved security of the integrated solution, as the SAVVIS utility allows for dynamic provisioning of firewalls and defense-in-depth architectures.

With this new desktop utility service, end-users are no longer tied to a specific desktop or laptop computer. The end-user accesses his or her individual desktop environment by inserting a personal Java Card technology-enabled smart card into the Sun Ray thin client. This gives end users instant access to their desktop applications and data.

SAVVIS launched its virtualized utility services platform in 2004. It is currently installed in SAVVIS data centers in the U.S., Europe, and Asia and serves companies of all sizes across industries.
