Deploying Server App-V applications

Deploying Server App-V applications has some big differences from the process we already know, basically for one specific reason—there's no streaming. The deployment of the Server App-V applications depends directly on the PowerShell Cmdlets.

There are two deployment possibilities in Server App-V:

1. Using PowerShell: The process is quite similar to the one in the standalone mode. With the Server App-V client installed, we use Cmdlets to add the package in the same way we use SFTMIME.

2. Using SCVMM 2012: Using this platform, we can deploy our Server App-V applications using Service templates. When we deploy a virtual machine, we can include the Server App-V application with the necessary parameters.

Let's review both of these scenarios.

If we are used to handling SFTMIME commands to add/remove packages, using PowerShell Cmdlets won't be much different.
