Why Chrome OS?

In the last decade cloud computing has dominated the market. IT organizations are providing their customers with cloud services ensuring that applications and data are stored remotely making it easier for users to access their work from anywhere, at anytime using any device. This maximizes productivity and minimizes loss of data and time.

Berkeley Lab IT is continually striving to enhance computer security, provide a better user experience and lower costs to stretch dollars for science. One way to achieve all three objectives is the migration away from standard Windows or Mac computers and to a Chrome OS device. User authentication is simplified enabling users to only remember their Berkeley Lab Identity username and password. No need to remember a second Active Directory username and password.
