<strong>Pano</strong> <strong>System</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>Cloud</strong><br />

This chapter explains the capabilities, installation, and administration of <strong>Pano</strong> <strong>Logic</strong>’s new onpremises<br />

LAN-based system, called <strong>Pano</strong> <strong>System</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>Cloud</strong>. Like other <strong>Pano</strong> <strong>Logic</strong> products, <strong>Pano</strong><br />

<strong>System</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>Cloud</strong> provides desktops to users from a server. The key difference is that the desktop<br />

is Chrome, from Google. The system as a whole is designed to leverage the power of Chrome,<br />

Google Apps, Google Docs, and cloud-based IT technology. Like <strong>Pano</strong> <strong>System</strong> <strong>for</strong> VDI, the server,<br />

called <strong>Pano</strong> Controller <strong>for</strong> <strong>Cloud</strong>, is on your premises and under your control.<br />

or a <strong>Pano</strong> Virtual Client. Typical users will have workloads and applications that are web-based<br />

and which are compatible with the Chrome browser. For example, users who use Google Gmail or<br />

Microsoft Hotmail <strong>for</strong> email, Google Calendar <strong>for</strong> scheduling, Google Apps <strong>for</strong> Business or<br />

Microsoft Office 365 as a productivity suite, and Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) applications such<br />

as the NetSuite ERP or the Sales<strong>for</strong>ce.com CRM are excellent candidates.<br />

(Note: <strong>Pano</strong> <strong>System</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>Cloud</strong> also supports a single-window kiosk mode, which lets users<br />

browse, but is restricted to a domain specified by the administrator. No login is required.)<br />

Applications and websites that use Adobe PDF and Flash content are supported by the native<br />

facilities in the Chrome browser. Java and Silverlight applications and content are also supported<br />

via plug-ins that come already installed on the <strong>Pano</strong> Controller <strong>for</strong> <strong>Cloud</strong> server. However, web
