Live Hands-on Sequencing
Tim ManganKahuna, TMurgent TechnologiesMicrosoft MVP for App-V
App-V
• Virtualize Applications– Fix App Conflict (not Compatibility with OS)– Encapsulate (Sequencing)– Run in own virtual application space
• Centrally Deploy– RTSP/S Streaming– SCCM– Stand-alone MSI

Application Virtualization
• Encapsulate Application– Run conflicting applications– Avoid apps corrupting OS
• Application Publishing– Shortcuts / Icons– File Type Associations
• Application Delivery– Stream– ESD– Other
Players in this space:Microsoft (SoftGrid), Citrix (Name-of-the-season), Altiris/SVS/AppStream, VMware (Thinstall)

App-V MSI Output
Virtual Application Execution with Traditional Publishing
• Adds an MSI wrapper as control point for virtual applications
• Interoperability with SMS 2003 R2 and SCCM 2007, other “Push” Technologies
• Third party ESD systems may also control virtual applications
• Standalone mode virtual applications may be delivered via removable media or from a file share
• Stand-alone Client – no required “back-end” needed
• Virtual applications can be inventoried via Add/Remove Program scanning

Live• ALL:
– Install Sequencer– Sequence an app and generate MSI
• Time Permitting, Tim will– Install Client / setup for MSI– Install and test your virtual apps
