Tube Lines provides maintenance and support services for the London Underground. With employees spread across more than 90 locations, Tube Lines relied on its terminal services solution to deliver central access to applications. However, limited scalability and low bandwidth affected application performance and employee productivity. The company added more server computers to accommodate its users, but this increased the management burden and strained network resources further. To improve performance and simplify management, Tube Lines is implementing Windows Server® 2008 Terminal Services on 64-bit servers from HP. The company expects to decrease terminal services hardware by 80 percent, making management easier. The company will reduce costs as a result. In addition, faster connections and improved stability will help employees to work more easily
