efficiency and productivity is achieved when the deployment and management of IT services is fast, simple and elegant
participants that showed the October Citrix Workspace cloud webinar connected a high level of commitment and asked great questions, while embarking on a technical tour of the new platform and services. Inspired by the journey to cloud, asked the participants questions themed around provisioning technologies, secure credential management, providing new functionality and more.
Let the top check us 8 questions that were asked during the webinar.
1. Is Citrix Provisioning Services (PVS) integrated with the app and desktop services in Citrix Workspace cloud?
Today, integrated delivery in app and desktop service is sponsored by Machine Creation Services (MCS). This technology allows administrators app and desktop capacity to computing resources (hypervisor) is located in the customer data center (resource sites) from the cloud-based management control plane (XenDesktop Delivery Site) to scale. This simplifies the management capacity of app and desktop workloads, which saves time and simplifies management.
A similar integration with PVS is currently in development. Workspace cloud customers can provided equipment of PVS in its app and desktop service resource site, or use them as part of plan automation provided by Citrix Lifecycle Management. But must be initiated with PVS at this time, provide. In the future the app and desktop service will support integrated PVS providing studio. Integrated PVS support was a popular request at Citrix Synergy use of provisioning capabilities in PVS 2015 as a partner and customer saw. We heard, and the development is underway.
2. Will the workspace cloud UI and Control Center of ourselves?
No, there are no plans possible to host the Workspace cloud interface for on-premise deployment to make. Our goal is to provide a cloud service available that can develop quickly and regularly without any effort or the upgrade of the customer. must be To deliver this vision and continuous value we add the control level and interface as Citrix operated cloud service host and operated.
3. Can we App and Desktop Service Controller in our data center?
host number. All the benefits of hybrid delivery model of the app and desktop service that needs to take on Delivery Controller available are hosted and operated in the Citrix Cloud. If your goal is, both controllers and workers components of Citrix XenDesktop infrastructure is to host, consider how the lifecycle management services in Workspace cloud help automate provisioning and monitoring your environment. Hybrid delivery is not right for everyone and all applications, which is why Citrix will continue to invest heavily in our core products, and traditional on-site use case.
4. Where will the end-user authentication in hybrid delivery model? Do my end users a new user names must or can they continue using their Microsoft Active Directory identity?
The end user or "participants" to continue their AD to use based identity and must not issued new login to access applications and desktops powered by the app and desktop services in cloud workspace.
authentication currents are safe, and the routing and "cloud exposure" of credentials depend on where the facade component (where end users authenticate access to applications and desktops) is. is hosted in the scenario in which shop in a Resource Location, user data are encrypted before they leave the customer data center or in the cloud. The encryption key is never sent to the cloud, to ensure that the credentials will be handled safely and can not even be affected in the event that an attacker was able to interrupt the data stream.
In the scenario where a customer advantage of cloud hosted storefront take from the app and desktop service (one less piece Citrix infrastructure to implement for them to manage and update), the credentials securely encrypted and is passed down from the cloud-based storefront to the workspace Cloud Connector for use in the customer Active Directory domain. In any scenario, are always stored in workspace Cloud User Permissions end. Learn more
5. Is the entire communication of the Citrix Cloud to Cloud Connector done over port 443? Are there any other port or network requirements?
The entire communication between Workspace cloud and the connector is SSL over port 443. There are no other network or network port requirements. With only 443 outbound access Administrators can quickly connect existing enterprise directories, domains and computing resources with the Workspace cloud platform and services.
This simple requirement makes it easy to get started with cloud workspace. It takes a few minutes to download, install and work area CloudConnector register. This design allows customers to avoid the cost and complexity of setting up a direct connections or VPNs, their resources sites (data centers or cloud environments) to connect to Workspace cloud.
6. Can updates the control plane rolled back when they present a problem? How does this work
Of course, but Citrix managed that - not customers. Citrix assumes responsibility for service availability and functionality very seriously. That include updates and availability of Workspace cloud platform elements in addition to any service.
Primarily we test updates and rollout extensively. Next, we suddenly no new production update to each client, we roll select an appropriate sample size and update only the customer and control planes. With this additional "in production trust", we are rolling out next update for all customers.
In the event that an error, failure or error occurs (we are not perfect), our 24 × 7 support and operations team is on the case. There are a number of possible resolution paths, rollback or restoration to be one of them. In other scenarios, we can cycle from a problematic server or component need only. Often these types of resolutions may occur without service outage. Resolution varies depending on the problem and whether it is located in a platform element or a particular service.
If you suspect a failure has occurred, check to see if the issue is known and what we do about our operations dashboard.
7. What are the basic requirement for the app and desktop services in Workspace cloud you start?
you official documentation on the minimum requirements here is from. To take a quick test drive, check documentation of this. To use the app and desktop services, this guide will help you create your first resource site and delivered workplace.
8. Is Citrix to deliver Microsoft partnered desktop / apps from Azure?
During Workspace Cloud is committed to a any cloud, we certainly have to use for the delivery of applications and desktops to Windows Azure a robust solution set our sights. Our roadmap and vision includes integrated Azure providing the App and Desktop service. This integration will enable customers and partners to quickly and easily scale capacity of the resource locations, saving time and simplifying ongoing management of Citrix environments. We are aligned and partnered with Microsoft and look forward to the Citrix + Microsoft story with a deeper integration between Azure and Cloud Workspace strengthening
