Preface
Designing Citrix XenApp 7.5 as the basis for a desktop virtualization solution requires extensive planning. There are numerous options and scenarios to consider. Taking the time to properly plan and then execute is key to any successful deployment.
This book covers how to use Citrix XenApp 7.5 for desktop virtualization solutions. XenApp can be classified as both application virtualization as well as desktop virtualization. When using XenApp, you can provide end user access to select applications or an entire virtual desktop. Providing a virtual desktop with XenApp is also known as using the Hosted Shared Desktop (HSD) model. This means that multiple users can share the same desktop with common resources as opposed to a dedicated desktop.
