App Volumes 4 for Horizon Cloud on Microsoft Azure is Available Now

Part of the challenge of maintaining an efficient desktop virtualization environment is managing applications mcafee.com/activate product key, especially as environments scale up and, increasingly, out beyond on-premises data centers and into the cloud www.mcafee/activate. App Volumes is a key product that streamlines application management in virtualized desktop www.mcafee.com/activate download environments.

App Volumes allows customers to drastically reduce the number of gold images that must be maintained by moving www.mcafee.com/activate the applications into manageable packages. Organizations can standardize on a relatively small number of gold images while apps are assigned to users and delivered in real time at logon. The latest version of App Volumes was released in January 2020 for vSphere-based workloads. This new version introduced a new capability called Simplified Application Management  www.mcafee/activate (SAM), which optimizes the process www.mcafee.com/activate product key of managing the entire application lifecycle, from packaging and updating to retirement, all from the Horizon control plane

.

Today, App Volumes 4 and its next generation capabilities such as Simplified Application Management are now available for Horizon cloud for Microsoft Azure With this latest release, customers leveraging Horizon Cloud on Microsoft Azure   mcafee.com/activate product key can reduce the size and quantity of their gold images in Azure, which directly results in reduced storage costs in and less time spent www.mcafee.com/activate download managing and updating images. Additionally, you can then drastically reduce the time spent in managing applications with SAM.

App Volumes for Horizon Cloud on Microsoft Azure has been designed keeping the customer journey in mind. The following 3 guiding principles shaped this offering:

• First, we have made it very easy for our existing Horizon Cloud on Azure customers to adopt App Volumes www.mcafee.com/activate. Customers no longer  www.mcafee/activate need to deploy and manage servers, databases or storage. All of this is auto provisioned and managed by VMware on the customer’s behalf.

• Second, we have ensured that our on-premises App Volumes customers can easily expand their footprint into Horizon Cloud on Azure. We have built capabilities and tooling to allow migrating of app packages from on-premises to cloud without repackaging.

• Finally, we’ve maintained feature consistency between the on-premises and Azure versions of the product mcafee.com/activate product key. App Volumes is now truly www.mcafee.com/activate product key a multi-cloud, hybrid cloud solution that will work with your deployment no matter where you are in your digital transformation.

Now let’s talk about some specific capabilities:

Cloud Native Packaging

Customers can now build packages using all the resources such as desktops and images available within Horizon Cloud www.mcafee.com/activate download.  No need for command www.mcafee/activate line tools to build app packages on local machines and www.mcafee.com/activate then upload them to the cloud.

Realtime Application Delivery via Azure File Shares

App Volumes leverages the strengths of Azure storage to manage and deliver App packages to virtual desktop users. Azure storage is auto www.mcafee.com/activate product key provisioned for the customer during setup. Since Azure has a consumption-based pricing model, there is no upfront storage costs mcafee.com/activate product key. As customers build packages and delivers them via Azure file shares, the storage usage is directly billed to the customer’s Azure subscription. While in the on-prem flavor of the product, applications are packaged in the VMDK format, in Azure they are packaged and delivered in Microsoft’s native VHD format, for optimal performance in Azure. For customers transitioning from on-prem to the cloud,tooling is provided to confirm from VMDK TO VHD format.

User Interface Seamlessly Integrated into the Horizon Cloud Console

With this release, the App Volumes User interface has been rebuilt to seamlessly integrate into Horizon Cloud’s management console www.mcafee/activate. By moving it into the Horizon Control Plane www.mcafee.com/activate download,  App Volumes is now well positioned to manage deployments, app inventory and assignments across clouds and on-prem soon. A true multi-cloud, hybrid-cloud solution.

What’s next?

We’re very excited about this release, but we’re not stopping there. In this release, we’re offering a preview of MSIX app attach management www.mcafee.com/activate from the App Volumes console, as well as using app www.mcafee.com/activate product key packages with Windows 10 Enterprise multi session.

MSIX App Attach

MSIX app attach is a new application management technique developed by Microsoft that delivers MSIX-packaged applications in virtual disks www.mcafee/activate. This approach effectively pre-expands the MSIX package so that it’s available to the user mcafee.com/activate product key when the www.mcafee.com/activate download virtual disk is attached. VMware has been working with Microsoft to bring the MSIX format to apps which allows www.mcafee.com/activate product key admins to assign both App Volumes and MSIX packages from the same interface.
