Network Services:

Communication is the key to successful information management, and connectivity is the key to communication.

There is much more to connectivity than simply joining computers together with copper. Effective network management requires careful planning to prevent system users being saturated by non-essential information.

How We Can Help

Corporate Windows has been developing systems to support multiple users for almost 20 years. We think this gives us some authority to talk about the information needs of system users - we reckon we've seen just about everything. The good, the bad and the very, very ugly.

Importantly, we have spent our time productively developing tools and techniques for delivering information over distributed networks including the Internet.

About Networks
The distinctions between different types of network architecture can be quite confusing and there are many overlapping concepts. Typically Local Area Network (LAN) and Wide Area Networking (WAN) technologies are point-to-point - all machines are wired together across a physical network or "backbone".

Other types of network can loosely be classified as "virtual" because the audience for the data can connect from almost anywhere and obtain a direct window into an organisation's system. Different classes of user have different permissions allowing access to the data and this becomes the basis for distinguishing between one or other type of virtual network (eg. Internet, VPN, Extranet etc.).

Using this schema, the Internet and World Wide Web can be deemed a virtual public network.
