In Detail

With an ever-increasing number of applications being deployed in the workplace, Microsoft App-V 5 enables administrators to abstract these applications from the clients, which reduces the time to complete the software deployment lifecycle.

The book starts with the deployment of a scalable App-V infrastructure and progresses on to cover the sequencing of common applications. In later chapters, you will discover integrations with Microsoft Remote Desktop Services, Citrix® XenDesktop®, and Microsoft System Centre Configuration Manager. Finally, you will learn to leverage the App-V reporting server along with Microsoft Office Excel and pivot tables to gain insights on which applications are being used, along with how to troubleshoot issues with your deployment.
