RD Virt Host and AppV – Better Together

Problem Solution

Badly written Apps store user state outside user profile

AppV – redirects user state to User Profile

Reduce cost of App deployment/management

AppV - Streaming makes it easier to centrally deploy and update applicationsAppV – Silo reduces test effort

Support multi-workload (role based assignment of apps )

AppV – User based app assignment, Siloreduces app conflicts and can allow multiple versions of apps to be deployment.

RD Virt Host and SCVMM – Better Together

Problem Solution

Scalable approach to create Guest OS in VM

SCVMM’s VM creation is Template based, IC’s auto-installed, Scriptable.

Track and manage large number of VMs

SCVMM VM library
