Chapter 2. ThinLinc Architecture

The goal of this chapter is to give a technical overview of how the system works for someone who will

install or maintain a ThinLinc installation.

ThinLinc is a product for managing server based computing. The system is largely based on open source

software, which has led to an expansion of the product to encompass solutions for authentication,

availability systems, emulation and conversion between different computer systems. ThinLinc can be

used as a gateway between different types of clients and a large number of base systems.

The system architecture allows an existing infrastructure to be maintained while a new architecture is

gradually introduced to the organization. The system can be launched alongside the existing systems for

a gradual migration to a new platform, and at the same time it acts as a link or gateway between the

existing systems.

The architecture is designed to be ﬂexible in order to handle larger organizations with autonomous ofﬁce

applications or functions, whilst maintaining management and security. The system can be supplemented

with an automated system for installation, conﬁguration and administration of the client hardware, such

as through the use of PXE. It’s also possible to create different user groups. In this way departments with

special needs are easily administered in the case of adaptations or user-driven application development.
