3 Why? Desktop Environment: Icon, fies, wapapers,.. Desktop virtuaization deivers on-demand desktops to users for anytime, anywhere, any device access. Users have fu access to their compete business desktop from mutipe devices, such as their home PC, a smart phone or an ipad. Easy access to a virtuaized desktop can hep peope to be more productive

6 Appication and Desktop Deivery Two types of vdesktop Appications are executed remotey Appications are executed ocay

8 Appication Virtuaization Virtuaization is the process of decouping ayers of IT functions so that configurations of the ayers become more independent of each other. Appication virtuaization is an essentia and critica component for a desktop deivery soutions Appication: These are the end-user focused Windows and web programs, executed on a Windows Operating System Patform. Streaming: is the process of transporting the appication specific data/content as quicky as possibe to the end-point. The appication is quick-up-andrunning where utimatey the required resources to run and use the appication is being deivered to the user whie the remaining data is transferred in the background. Virtuaization: is a software ayer that improves portabiity, manageabiity and compatibiity of appications by encapsuating them from the underying operating system on which they are executed. A virtuaized appication is not instaed in the traditiona sense, athough it s sti executed and behaves as if it were. Virtuaization isn t emuation.

9 Pros Appications are quicky and easy deivered. It is simpe and easy to upgrade appications. The roback to prior appication versions is simpe. There is no need to insta appications anymore. Eimination of appication conficts. Reduce regression testing time. Aow mutipe versions of the same appication to be run simutaneousy on mutipe versions of Windows Operating System, greaty reducing the number of server sios. It stabiizes Windows user profies.

10 Cons Not a (Windows) appications can be virtuaized Performance penaty of appication virtuaization soution. Different way of appication packaging which can have impact on packaging toos and knowedge of packagers. Troubeshooting is different to depoyed appications and can be chaenging.

11 Streaming The deivery process of transporting the appication specific data/resources to the endpoint at the time the appication is executed is caed streaming Appication is aunched with amount of data: 10-30% Additiona features of an appication are deivered on demand, or in the background without user intervention.

12 Appication Virtuaization The process where appications are encapsuated or isoated from other appications and the underying Windows Operating System on which they are executed is caed Virtuaization The appication is executed inside the Virtua Environment

13 Appication Virtuaization A resources required by the virtua appication are incuded in the package The virtua appication is competey separated (virtuaized/isoated) from the operating system and other appications The virtua appication cannot write to the OS fie system or registry, or modify the native OS in any way. The appication virtuaization soution is of course abe to write to specific ocations to save documents etc. The virtua appication must operate the same way as a nativey instaed appication and provide fu OS she integration, inter-process communications, etc.

14 Agent-based Cient-based, or agent-based, appication virtuaization invoves the use of a ocay instaed agent or cient on the endpoint This agent or virtuaization engine, contains functionaity to setup and maintain the Virtua Environment for each appication

15 Agent-ess Cient-ess, or agent-ess, appication virtuaization invoves the use of an embedded virtua OS that is depoyed as part of the virtuaized appication VMware ThinApp and Spoon are exampes of agent-ess

16 VENDORS AND THEIR VIRTUALIZATION SOLUTIONS CAMEYO MICROSOFT APP-V VMWARE THINAPP

17 CAMEYO Cameyo's virtuaization technoogy is about bringing entire appication environments into one singe executabe that can run anywhere, and whose usage wi not affect or modify your system The idea of Cameyo was born by thinking about how Windows appications shoud be ike in today's era of Internet and mobiity.

19 VMWARE THINAPP The most recent reease, ThinApp 5.0, introduced support for 64bit appications Appication virtuaization encapsuates the appications from the OS. Eiminating costy regression testing and conficts from bady behaving appications Depoy virtuaized appications in user mode, without administrative rights

20 Desktop Virtuaization Virtuaization is the process of decouping ayers of the Desktop, the OS and the Appications from the physica cient device that is used to access it. Making Windows, Web and Mobie appications avaiabe to the end-user, regardess of the technoogy being used, is an important strategic objective of an advanced IT infrastructure
