Thin Client

 

Definition: A computer that works like a terminal when all the processing is done on another computer.

What This Means: For a software application, thin client means that all the user needs is a basic PC. Little or no software must be loaded to run on the PC; therefore, updates and performance issues are not the responsibility of the user. Thin clients may not store any data on the user’s PC.
