NOMAD™ Software Distribution Re-engineered
Key Features
Reverse QoS™ Only Uses Spare
Network Capacity
Intelligent bandwidth throttling ensures that Nomad
only utilizes the network’s available capacity, so
business traffic is never compromised.
Single Site Download (SSD)
Automated discovery of network topography enables
administrators to treat complex, distributed networks
as simple and local ensuring content is only ever
downloaded once to a site regardless of the number
of PCs.
Enhanced OSD Capabilities
With Nomad Task Sequence steps available directly
in the SCCM console, it is simple to integrate all of
Nomad’s intelligence, even in the most complex
OS build process.
PXE Everywhere Removes the Need for
Dedicated PXE Servers
Bare metal build capability from peer systems
enables the installation of an Operating System
without needing servers, network configuration or
administrative effort.
Accelerated Peer-to-Peer Software
Distribution with FanOut™
Peer Backup to Preserve and Restore User
Data and Personal Settings
FanOut™ significantly accelerates the distribution of
SCCM content between Nomad peers. From rapidly
deploying software updates to delivering enterprise
wide OS migrations in record time, distributing
content with an automated many-to-many model
ensures software distribution is achieved within hours
rather than days.
Ensures automated, safe and reliable user-state
migrations between Nomad peers during OS rebuilds
and migrations, without requiring servers.
Tight Integration With SCCM
The solution seamlessly integrates with and builds on
the inherent security provided by SCCM, introducing
no additional risk to PCs or the network. Its reliable
automation means immediate distribution of software
packages, system updates or OS upgrades to any
number of PCs at any location at any time.
App-V Support Optimized for All Clients
Nomad has built-in intelligence to optimize App-V
delivery to all SCCM clients whether they are on fast
or slow networks.
