Summary
In this chapter, we learned how to design a Citrix XenApp 6.5 (and 6.0) farm and discovered Brick Unit Construction. Specially:
Common XenApp farm terminology and concepts used in the Citrix world and some new names used on XenApp 6.5
Designing a Basic XenApp Architecture
Writing a simple pilot plan
Designing Active Directory integration
Building a small test farm, used as a design validation farm
Creating a list of applications to publish on the new farm
Testing the list of applications and deciding the best method to deliver them
Designing and building a basic XenApp 6.5 farm, is the first step for a successful deployment of the product. Installing and testing applications will help us understand the features of the products and gain experience with them.
In the next chapter, we will leave words aside and we will start building our first XenApp 6.5 servers!!!
