MiniFrame's SoftXpand solution uses a unique load balancing, virtualization technique to transform a standard Windows PC into multiple independent workstations. Unlike thin client solutions, SoftXpand does not require proprietary hardware. Each SoftXpand workstation's performance is equal to the original host PC's performance, with SoftXpand supporting every type of application, including multimedia applications, video and flash, and in and out sound; the user experience is identical to that of a standard PC. With its proprietary technology, MiniFrame provides top performance computing at an ultra low cost at any given PC level. End-user benefits include at least a 75 percent reduction in IT total cost of ownership, with extensive savings in the cost of hardware, maintenance, deployment, electricity, human resource productivity, overhead, space and logistics, as well as improved management and networking efficiency. Since SoftXpand requires only standard, off-the-shelf hardware, this revolutionary solution is aligned with hardware industry advancements, and therefore is able to transparently keep up with the best cost – performance ratio possible. Named the Ultimate Green IT Solution, SoftXpand shares the power of the host PC among all workstations, leading to significantly reduced energy consumption as well as lower CO2 emission levels, manufacturing, transportation, packaging, heat output and land fill.
