1. How do Citrix XenApp and Citrix XenDesktop Complement Each Other?
A Superior User Experience with Next Generation Desktop Virtualization
 
The Citrix strategy for desktop virtualization is unique from the others. The emphasis is breaking down a virtual desktop into its most fundamental elements and components, getting down to a single set of applications, setting a gold standard for what the operating system is going to be, and then taking those components, and dynamically combining them with some personalization to create the virtual desktop.
In other words, separate applications from the desktop, keep those components with single points of management, and then have these pristine components assembled with a level of personalization, so that even when the desktop is built from very standardized components, the end user still feels like they’re getting their desktop.
Ultimately with Citrix XenDesktop the end user is provided with a superior desktop experience that delivers high performance, responsiveness, and fast log on times. Features that a Citrix XenApp customer has come to know and expect.

3. Enterprise Cloud Computing
Create shared computing infrastructure from physical and virtual resources with Platform IFS
 
Today’s datacenter, with static compute resources is not structured to appropriately match supply with wildly fluctuating demand in a cost-effective and timely manner. What is required is a way to create a shared computing infrastructure from physical and virtual resources to deliver application environments according to workload-aware and resource-aware policies. Cloud computing allows Enterprises to transform the way IT delivers applications to users and adds value in three primary areas:
1. Faster delivery of IT services
- Self-service and automation puts control in the hands of the business owners and allows them to access resources on demand according to immediate business requirements.
2. Reduction in IT costs
- Capital expense savings come from a reduction in the amount of server resources required to meet peak application demand across the organization
- Operational savings include reductions in cooling, power, and administrative resources
3. Increased utilization
- By sharing resources across different application groups and business units, you can increase utilization from the typical less-than-15% to as high as 80-90%
Platform ISF creates a shared computing infrastructure from physical and virtual resources to deliver application environments according to workload-aware and resource-aware policies.
