Learn more about why the time is now to consider virtualizing with Citrix XenApp and Citrix XenServer. Watch this informative interview with Simon Crosby, CTO of Virtualization and Management at Citrix and former CTO of XenSource.
Today’s business environment is becoming more and more virtual; telecommuting, remote workers, and branch offices are becoming more the rule than the exception. It makes sense then, that the technology required to ensure that these end-users have access to the applications they need, when they need it, should follow the same virtualization trend. Enter Application Virtualization – technologies that can enable you as an IT professional to not only provide the growing virtual workforce with a better-than-native application experience, but also provide a management system for yourself that does not become as disparate as the users who rely on it.
Through Application Virtualization technologies such as Citrix XenApp, MTM can help you transform your application infrastructure into one centrally managed repository that will stream applications on-demand over the internet or via the corporate network to desktops, Terminal servers and laptops. Many of the concerns and challenges that are currently associated with application service and support can be removed by streaming or “delivering” applications to end users on their personal devices, as opposed to the current physical application environment.
Interested "reving up" the performance of your applications in a virtual or physical environment?
Over the LAN or WAN, MTM can help.
Find out how you can leverage technologies such as Citrix WANScaler and NetScaler to significantly improve end user experience of your delivered applications and data.
- No longer will lost laptops pose threats to the integrity of an organization’s data security since no applications or data resides locally on the device.
- Deploying, upgrading and patching to applications are done once (rather than once for every PC device) then distributed immediately across the virtual platform to end users when they log in.
- By centralizing the support and management of applications to the datacenter rather than out in the field the Total Cost of Ownership is dramatically reduced.
Of course, there is much to consider when investigating centralizing applications through Application Virtualization. Virtualize all applications or only some? How does it impact the current datacenter? Which end-users are or are not candidates? How fast can an implementation result in a return on investment? These and many more, are all extremely important questions to know and have answers to. It is true that Application Virtualization will optimize your application service and management systems, but its not a matter of just flipping a switch. It requires a strategic approach. It requires a team of solution advisors, who have implemented similar strategies for similar organizations, to develop a roadmap that will illustrate how your unique organization will benefit most from application virtualization. It requires MTM.
With a national footprint and the longest holding position as Citrix’s largest solution advisor, no other technology provider can bring as much depth of experience and wealth of knowledge to designing Application Virtualization infrastructure as MTM. If its an application and it's been virtualized chances are it was either an architecture designed by MTM, or MTM has “been there done that.”
