CTXS& JAVA--I would appreciate it if someone would comment on the validity om the following exchange. The key question I am attempting to answer is whether CTXS has bypassed JAVA for cases where a client is accessing an Application Server that is running CTXS software and is serving some applications containing JAVA applets. It seems to me like this is a very key question for those of us that believe that 1) application servers are the wave of the future and 2) that the JAVA folks are trying to horn in on this business. To: Clark Hare (33332 ) From: JohnG Saturday, Jun 26 1999 7:03PM ET Reply # of 33348 CTXS is, I think, planning their software to redirect the applet calcs to the server and transmit the screens to the thin clients. Whether there can be enough bandwidth to run the cute little java cartoons, I do not know. John G To: JohnG (33337 ) From: Lucius M. Lamar Saturday, Jun 26 1999 10:24PM ET Reply # of 33348 Citrix ISA is optimized to work with connections as low as 14.4 Kbps. One of the main points of CTXS is that it works well with low bandwidth since only screen refreshes and mouse and keyboard commands are transmitted. On any kind of bandwidth in use today JAVA cartoons should work fine. They would run on the server and the screen would be transmitted to the client. To: Lucius M. Lamar (33340 ) From: JohnG Sunday, Jun 27 1999 7:44AM ET Reply # of 33348 Lucius Lamar--Thanks for answer. I really can't believe I actually found someone on this board that knows anything about CTXS. If you are correct, then my interpretation is that CTXS has made Java subsidiary to itself for internet connections. This means Java can be used as a neat programing language to write the little applet cartoons but Java's supposed primary advantage of being able to run those little applets on the clients will be obsoleted if CTXS software is installed n the server. Do you agree?? John G
