Replicated Branch Infrastucture (OSBD­RBI)
OSBD
OSBD­RBI is designed for organizations and enterprises, which have a lot of branches with a small bandwidth. 
At the branch there is an appliance (BA) in place

No need for administration on branch side

The management of BA's is fully provided through the central MAS

Branches will be updated periodically outside working time. 
Unlimited number of branches

OSBD Support for mobile User
OSBD
The standard operating system on a laptop/notebook is replaced by a Linux­based „Mini OS“, which support the hardware and the file system.
The mini OS start the imageloader. This will initiate the start of a virtual os depending end user profile (e.g. Linux or Windows).


For off­line­function, the laptop is running an own mini virtualization system, similar to the VDI.

The laptop holds on his file system an identical image like the images on the VDI. 
Attached to users network, the local image will be synchronized with the central master­image. 
So images on the laptops are always up to date and do not need to be maintained seperately.
