Microsoft Application
Virtualization (App-V)
Virtual Desktop
How does it Work?
Anywhere Productivity
Access to applications on any device without
installs
Avoid Business Disruptions
Log in to retrieve applications and restore
productivity
Accelerate Deployment
Faster provisioning of virtual applications on
demand
Reduce application testing time
Local Desktop
End Point
App-V 5.0 Design Goals Achieved
• Increased Integration
• SFTTray.exe not required
• Local storage of Virtual File System (VFS)
• Simplified Troubleshooting
• Increased Manageability
• Flexible deployment
• Enable full support automation
• Provide a Unified Experience
App-V 5.0
• Increased Flexibility
• Virtual Application Connection Groups

• Co-existence with previous version (4.6 SP2)
Citrix Partnership
XenApp and Microsoft Integration
Integration Scenarios…
XenApp and Microsoft App-V integration
App Delivery Methods…
XenDesktop 7 Integration with App-V 5.0
Benefits of App-V & Citrix
o App-V 5 Shared Content Store is perfect for non-persistent desktops
o Citrix XenApp 6.5 integration with Microsoft Configuration Manager 2012
o Deploy App-V 5 apps with SCCM 2012, PowerShell, GPO or as stand alone
o Run multiple versions of the same application on the same server. No more
need for silos
o Run the same App-V 5 package on various platforms
o App-V 5 Sequencer Ease of use. Let the Application Managers be
responsible for their software
App-V 5.0 and XenApp 6.5
• Integration can still be accomplished
• Known Issues
• Publishing Process
• Length issues
• Custom Integration (AppPaths with ShellExecute)
• Profile Management/User Profile Disk configuration

App-V in Configuration Manager 2012
What has Changed?
New Application Model User Centric Features
o Enable support for
application dependencies
o Improved update behaviors
o Selective publishing of
components
o Dynamic Suite Support
o Instant Icon Gratification for unlock events
o Application Virtual Environments
o Integration with Remote Desktop Services (RDS)
to target user sessions on RDS servers
o Content Improvements
Streaming Improvements
o Reduce virtual app footprint when using Download and execute
o
o Integration requires App-V 4.6 SP2 or 5.0 Client
Microsoft Application Virtualization

Application Web Catalog
IT
Admin
Administrators publish software titles to
catalog, complete with metadata to
enable search
• Deliver best user experience
on each device
“Available” deployments enable user
invocation from the Application Web
Catalog including administrator
approval prior to publishing App-V and
traditional applications.
App-V
User
Users can browse, select and install
directly from Catalog
• Application model determines
format and policies for delivery
Virtual Application Connection
Next Generation DSC
 App-V Packages can be deployed in multiple
Virtual Application Connection Groups
 Configuration is separate from the packages
Integrated with App-V
Management Server
and ConfigMgr
 Create and configure via Server User Interface or PowerShell
 Know the dependencies
Manage in
Standalone Mode
 Can use PowerShell to create and manage
Supported
Configurations
 Applications + Plugins
 Applications + Middleware
 Applications + Applications
