Top 3 Ways Citrix Lifecycle Management makes adoption AWS or Azure EASY -

Dear XenApp customer

You may not realize, however, a public cloud is probably in your , Future

you can view Chalk re up to my last visit of AWS :. Invent conference, the least to say was overwhelming

There is little doubt that public clouds a play key role in 9 out of 10 companies IT strategies-they are $ 8,000,000,000 pull in and at 80% per year keeps growing! There is also a high probability that you will not only a public cloud in the near future the use, but also one will be loaded with Citrix products.

Well, I'm not saying that you would move lock and bow in a public cloud. But it is likely that you will meet the use of your IT needs in some way to a public cloud is. It does not have to AWS, but it could Azure, Strato, Rackspace or Google Compute Engine be.

Sorry, I lied. You will not * A * Public Cloud goodbye, but many public clouds.

My experience until now with customers who have adopted a public cloud early is that in a short time, they develop a single cloud to a multi-cloud strategy. See the stats below that show the majority of customers are planning a multi-cloud strategy, take over.

MulticloudRS

This is just one of the areas where Citrix Workspace cloud outshines its competitors' solutions, especially of VMware. VMware is forcing customers to use a cloud. Not only any cloud, but " their cloud" if it fits your needs.

Citrix, on the other hand, comprises an "every cloud" strategy, so that to choose our customers the right cloud or clouds that her suit use case, and business needs. Not only that, it offers a range of services via Citrix Lifecycle management, which makes simple and practical multiple cloud usage.

to say goodbye to the Top 3 ways Citrix Lifecycle management a public cloud strategy.

1 Let's look possible. Simplify mask the provision of the underlying public cloud complexity.

A typical IT administrator who learn years spent hypervisor architectures thus, is now with the enormous challenge presents an entirely new set of architectures learn. For example, AWS provides various services such EC2 & VPC (Virtual Private Cloud), ELB (Elastic Load Balancer), SGs (security groups that traditional firewalls replace), EIP (Elastic IP), all very different from traditional hypervisor concepts.

While other vendors make their customers look after in this complex, technological wilderness, offers Citrix Lifecycle Management pre-validated plans for all Citrix solutions that will orchestrate seamlessly these architectural components. an admin can deploy an entire XenApp solution, including the controller, facades, databases and NetScaler to the prescribed architecture on one of the supported public clouds. A simple click interface allows the user to provide the desired business use case adjust. Pretty cool, huh?

CloudAgnostic

2. Ensure that the inserts are in a public cloud safely.

A major concern for businesses, the use of public clouds is security.

Product groups Citrix teamed with our security experts to outline the ideal architecture and best practices for safe installation of XenApp, XenDesktop, NetScaler and other workloads. Unsurprisingly, these recommendations are specific to a public cloud. For instance on AWS, it is ideal to implement XenApp in a virtual private cloud, which has no access to the public Internet. End users access their virtual desktops and applications via NetScaler Gateway.

course best practices used in NetScaler securely on AWS. Furthermore, administrators should control delivery access (Studio, Director, etc.) via a "bastion server", the NAT functionality effectively provides. Companies can go one step further isolate the XenApp / XenDesktop control level of VDAS by providing on separate virtual networks.

XAArchitecture

Look here to provide a detailed reference architecture for XenApp in AWS: https://www.citrix.com/content/dam/citrix/en_us/documents/products-solutions/citrix-xenapp-on-aws-reference-architecture.pdf

check also a step by step Getting Started as lifecycle management relies on AWS: http://docs.citrix.com/content/dam/docs/en-us/lifecycle-management/downloads/get-started-lifecycle-management-aws.pdf

IT administrators looking AWS can accept, of course, in a lot of time and resources to spend to understand these effects on the safety and manually deploy the specifications Citrix workloads. Instead CLM plans already implemented Citrix workloads on these security recommendations. The focus is on fast real customers on a proven Citrix reference architecture based help get value.

Furthermore, the plans slightly to close security measures are adjusted to (eg additional hardening of the used server for your business are unique and sure, etc.) that all cloud deployments for your business security and compliance standards to be observed.

Note that it gets more complicated, for clients who would like to adopt multi-Cloud. Azure, for example, provides security paradigms that are quite different from those of the AWS. However, as mentioned above, are the blueprints CLM per Azure security models.

3 provide. Improve public cloud day-to-day operations through consistent "Manage" Services

Another legitimate concern that our customers and partners is the day-to-day operating expenses often cite a public cloud in the adoption. Let's start with the monitoring, which is essential to ensure workload availability. have on-site IT Admins conventional tools such as HP Node Manager or IBM Tivoli uses. These tools do not translate well for public cloud deployments.

cloud providers offer custom monitoring solutions to bridge this gap. AWS cloud Watch is one such example. But coming cloud clock with multiple restrictions. For example, they followed only a limited amount of infrastructure. To make things most other public clouds tackle this difficult in very different ways.

Citrix Lifecycle Management elegantly addresses this problem by in-built monitoring service, the infrastructure metrics, and application-specific metrics tracked. It is also easily expandable. Our CSA partners can use this to provide packs monitoring, which are ideal for a particular vertical, that they are aligned.

However, they are not limited to this service. The Citrix Lifecycle Management platform integrates seamlessly with many of our technology partner solutions. You want proof? Throw. A look at the plans of our monitoring partners Xangati, ComTrade or EC innovations Plan Catalog

Catalog

One of the main reasons for the customer to use a public cloud to optimize cost of workloads with variable usage patterns to be. This brings a new set of challenges, as you have to be able to scale up specific metrics or Meiosis providing based on load, or another application.

In public clouds, to integrate different services need to achieve this. For instance on AWS, Cloud clock service, Auto Scale and Service Provisioning Service must be integrated in order to achieve this. As hard as that would be, it still has only the ability to track infrastructure metrics. If you want to scale based on the surrounding application-specific metrics such as number of sessions or session performance, etc., it would require more customization and complexity.

Citrix Lifecycle Management in turn greatly simplifies this by providing automatic scaling incorporated. In addition, apart from the monitoring and automatic scaling, lifecycle management, a number of services offers redundancy (auto-healing) to comprehensively manage, disaster recovery etc. It also provides the opportunity to plan operational tasks and daily, weekly can be performed monthly.

that's just a fly-by view, how to use Lifecycle Management to significantly lower the bar for public cloud adoption. I hope to delve deeper into each of these topics. Stay tuned!

Sounds too good to be true? Why do not you give it a quick spin?

Be a killer CV Quick & Dirty Tips Citrix -

Calling all students and trainees! Are you stuck in a rut because you have a hard time putting together your resume?

There are so many good jobs, but the competition can be tough! In addition, the average recruiter spends less than 10 seconds look for in a resume! I know, right?

So if you want your order to attract attention to resume, if you want to get it over the recruitment gatekeeper, it must POP and stand out from the crowd!

break free as you "should", write a resume.

Here are a few ideas on how to brush up your resume. Remember, though, if you ask 10 recruiters for their top resume tips, you will probably get 10 different answers.

CV-writing and reviewing subjective, but these are a few tips that would be supported by most recruiters:

  • Keep it simple , clean and organized. Stay away from frilly fonts, pictures, and anything else you think looks "fun" and "different Trust me that." Continued fun and different "directly on the bottom of the stack; the only time that I would would go outside the standard box support when their creative Apply role, but even then, err on the simple side of things.
  • Each position you should apply another have resume (the extra work is worth it!)
  • Make sure that your contact information is easy to read!
  • Use it to describe strong action words their experiences / benefits (such as "Managed" " Successfully ... "," orchestrated "," delivery ", etc)
  • use bullet points from your own experience / services that align with the job description and specific services. If you are looking to a sales representative to be, I do not want to read about your experience as a librarian; I want to see numbers and goals that you make when you sell things!
  • Organize the categories in your resume to the position and your experience / training. This means that if you just graduated from college, list your degrees at the tip. If you graduated 10+ years and the work for you requires apply technical skills you have, your technical skills on the top list.

make sense?

Unless you want to apply for a leading role, keep your resume to one page. I see that your head "no", but shook it really can. Not really. You can. So many people have showed me her resume and said that there was no way she could shorten it, but in five minutes I could to make fit for a side. The key is to only three balls have per order, relevant job list and not go too far back in your work history.

Some companies use applications and programs to scan applications for relevant words, and a lot and can typically scan only certain fonts, so stick with a standard font such as Times New Roman or Arial. No "Curlz" or "Comic Sans", please.

  • If you are a layout style unsure online a speedy recovery search. There are thousands out there; pick one that you think is easy to follow.
  • Mention your previous job titles and placements first and and , the companies where you have worked, not vice versa.
  • The bullet points of your professional experience should be almost identical to the job description, but shows your specific benefits.
  • do list personal information such as date of birth, single / married or family information. It's not that we do not supply , but yes. But it does not matter.
  • not use an objective statement. I know that you are interested in the job because you apply!

If you have large gaps in your work history, or you have done some job-hopping to explain write a short note why. We all understand that sometimes life happens companies near you moved there, was a disease. You know, life. But let us know! Otherwise, and this is the truth, we will probably assume you were just hanging and wasting your time.

Keep things simple things simple, and soon enough, you will be just keep things in a new job!

Caso Credinka: IT se transformó en un negocio del habilitador -

A lo largo del año fuimos Compartiendo distintos posts analizando diferentes tecnologías y que tienen un impacto tendencias real en el negocio de las empresas. ¿Pero existe mejor que el testimonio de un cliente que hizo una implementación concreta y Cambió el rumbo de su empresa? No, claro que no.

Por eso hoy quiero present arles a Marcelo Martínez Corazao, Jefe de Infraestructura Tecnológica de Credinka .

Credinka es una de las más entidades financieras reconocidas de Perú por su trabajo con microempresarios de zonas urbanas y rurales. Tuve la oportunidad de entrevistar a Marcelo recientemente y quiero compartirles nuestra conversación:

Juan Pablo Marcelo, para iniciar quiero consult arte qué Desafios objetivos u los llevaron a conectar la tecnología con el objetivo del negocio ,

Marcelo: En 08 nos expandimos a distintas zonas clave como Cusco, Quillabamba, Arequipa y Apurímac. Pero al hacerlo, nos encontramos con el desafío de que las comunicaciones en Perú no son muy eficientes fuera de las grandes ciudades. Era PRACTICAMENTE imposible acceder de forma remota a nuestros sistemas. Eso que una vez al mes hacía, un responsable de cada sucursal Debia viajar a nuestro centro de cómputos y traer consigo un disco externo con la información para poder consolidar todos los datos. Para esta situación Resolver, hicimos una prueba de la concepto utilizando solución XenApp y que VIMOS funcionaba muy bien; las operaciones que se realizábamos resolvían mucho mejor Gracias a Citrix. Por eso, decidimos implementar XenApp, XenDesktop XenServer y en nuestros centros de datos de Lima y Cusco.

En estos años, Citrix nos fue acompañando en nuestro crecimiento y haciendo una posible Expansión más rápida y la apertura más fácil de nuevas oficinas. De hecho, teníamos Sólo 4 oficinas en 08 y hoy ya Tenemos 76. La arquitectura de nos Citrix Ayudo a posicionarnos en esas zonas de manera muy ordenada y adecuada

Juan Pablo. Clara Mente la implementación le dio un nuevo impulso al negocio, pero hablando un poco sobre los empleados ¿qué beneficios percibieron ellos en su trabajo diario

Marcelo: De cara a nuestros empleados, la implementación se tradujo en un proceso más rápido, cómodo y eficiente de trabajo. Transacciones que tomaban 10 minutos comenzaron a resolverse de 40 segundos. A su vez, se los redujeron llamados de los empleados al Departamento de TI para solicitar asistencia porque las aplicaciones conectarse a it mucho más fácil y transparent. Ese cambio para el usuario last fue más que significativo

Juan Pablo:.? Y en Términos de costos ¿tuvieron la oportunidad de percibir ahorros o calcular el retorno de la inversión

Marcelo: Sí, logramos reducir costos y también tenemos algunos Calculos de retorno de la inversión:

  • XenApp: Logramos el retorno de la inversión en un año y cuatro meses. Asimismo, implementar esta tecnología nos Ayudo a lograr un ahorro del 32% en gastos de Comunicaciones
  • XenDesktop. Nos permitió ahorrar un 37% en equipos para el usuario last al poder usar terminal thin. Client y no tan equipos Complejos como antes
  • XenServer: Nos ayudo a reducir en un 0% el gasto anual de Energia; consumíamos 4 millones de kilowatt por hora y esto se redujo con la virtualization a 306.810 kilowatt por hora

Juan Pablo. Sin dudas esos datos son impactantes. También quisiera preguntarte cómo crees que estos cambios en la atención al cliente impactaron.

Marcelo: Los Tiempos de espera se redujeron radical elements. Hoy nuestros representantes no tienen que hacer esperar SEMANAS a los microempresarios del interior por una respuesta. It importante que estamos destacar también preparando un proyecto que permite que nuestros representantes hagan la evaluación crediticia en la zona, esto nos ayuda acercarnos al cliente que muchas veces tiene dificultades para viajar a la ciudad. Gracias a la tecnología podemos llevar nuestra oficina a la zona donde it necesaria y tan sólo una rápida realizando Consulta de los smartphones con un software de evaluación, podemos comentarles si pueden acceder al crédito que solicitan y los que tienen Montos a disposición.

Juan Pablo: Por último ¿cuales son sus Desafios en Términos de tecnología de aquí en adelante

Marcelo: Este año queremos posicionarnos en la zona centro y norte del país. En la zona norte Credinka acaba de adquirir a la financiera Caja Rural Caja Marca que tiene alrededor de 15 agencias con las que tenemos que integrarnos de manera eficiente y lo más rápido posible. También queremos incorporar comunicaciones unificadas y nuestro reforzar Plan de Continuidad del negocio. Para esto último estamos Considerando Citrix NetScaler para poder garantizar la alta disponibilidad de nuestros centros de datos dos ubicados en Lima y Cusco.

claramente el Departamento de TI puede transformarse en un negocio y del habilitador generar grandes cambios, pero esto en el rol del CIO it. Fundamental En breve estaremos Compartiendo otros casos en diferentes industrias por eso los invitamos a estar atentos a nuestro blog y seguir esta serie para conocer más formas de los negocios impulsar.

Introduction to Container Cluster Manager with Citrix Lifecycle Management

Introduction to Container Cluster Manager with Citrix Lifecycle Management -

Docker container technology the world of application development has taken by storm by simplifying and accelerating the development, implementation and maintenance of server-side applications ,

What started as a way of resources single host computer started (or VM), has become the technology now for managing container workloads across a cluster of hosts / VMs. [1945005gereiftzupartitionierenundzuverwalten]

Among the most popular manager container clusters are Kubernetes (originally by Google), Apache Mesos and Docker Swarm (from the creators of Docker). Each cluster management technology has something unique and different to offer.

  • Apache Mesos is mature and can not containerized workloads (such as Hadoop) are executed.
  • Kubernetes opinionated tends to be. It offers little customization (for now) and the cross-linking can be a challenge. But it moves fast and the settings can be a quick way to get started.
  • Docker Swarm is Docker, Inc and offers the usual Docker (single host) API. It is the easiest to start with, but also the least mature (at time of writing).

As a developer / architect infrastructure, it can be hard to decide on the right technology for your needs. The only way is to evaluate, they actually implement in your infrastructure and test it with your workloads. This is not easy for several reasons:

  1. During the Cluster Manager manage the container workloads, someone else has to manage the group of VMs - using the Cluster Manager, scale the cluster and to monitor the cluster ,
  2. Cluster Manager also rely on a supporting host infrastructure that must be managed: Mesos requires Apache Zookeeper, requires Kubernetes DCE
  3. your infrastructure is probably a mix of clouds and data center. each cluster manager has a different set script for different clouds and hypervisors.
  4. You do not containerized with the Cluster Manager as Citrix NetScaler load balancer to manage in concert infrastructure / orchestrate.

Citrix Lifecycle Management (CLM) is an Application Lifecycle Manager that you, scope and maintain can use this Cluster Manager help :. either in your data center or in the cloud CLM has plans that you get up and running with these cluster manager very quickly:

Citrix_Lifecycle_Management4

The image below shows all three cluster Manager on the same pool of XenServer hosts in use. It is worth noting that Citrix XenServer itself clustering technology to the group used a similar set of hypervisors!

cluster_on_xen2

You can see that I have the XenServer Docker Supplemental Support Pack installed to get a view of the container in the various clusters

The next figure shows below a Kubernetes cluster and a mesos cluster running on AWS executed -. started from CLM, configured and monitored - the same blueprint used starting with the cluster on XenServer.

EC2_Management_Console

in all cases all it takes is the published plans in Citrix Lifecycle Manager to use and give some inputs. You can start it before lunch and again to have a productive day manager hacking on cluster. CLM accepts the undifferentiated heavy lifting of this Cluster Manager to set up so that you can focus on your workload!

For those developers who are not able to create VMs or cloud instances, CLM provides the ability deploy these clusters Pre -created VMs / hosts BareMetal

Citrix_Lifecycle_Management5

Tips .:

  1. you noticed a virtual appliance NetScaler have the list of virtual machines running (VPX) on XenServer. This instance was also of CLM in use. After implementation, the VPX instance be used to your containerized load balancing workloads.
  2. The Plan steps include several goodies that can be reused in other contexts. For example, there are installed a step that Apache Zookeeper. Another step will help you Docker engine reliably in a VM.

I hope that this note will help to begin install you in your clustered container history. Let me know in the comments if you have any ideas / questions / feedback. Happy Clustering / container-ing!

XenApp Best Practice # 3: Consistency

XenApp Best Practice # 3: Consistency -

Back in my college days, I shared a flat with some other people. One night, I was sitting in my room in front of my PC, staring at the keyboard to find out how to complete a project for my COBOL class (yes I am that old).

All of a sudden I noticed some letters on the keyboard have been rearranged somewhat incongruous :) to spell out how I asked my roommate, who was with my keyboard in disarray, they start to laugh because they that done over a month had forgotten before and completely.

I never look at my keyboard. I know that the letters F and J have small bumps on them, so that my fingers are always on the right letter. Every keyboard I use is consistent, always the same.

What would happen if the letters were rearranged? It would be complete chaos for me. Instead 85 words per minute typing, I would be happy to give 5.

Consistency is essential for productivity and a good user experience with.

If we use our desktop PC to work with local applications, consistency is a matter of course, because we we are the only ones who know that changes can be made. So, there is a very high probability that, how things work, and one day the same on the next will be.

But XenApp is different.

XenApp send me to a completely different server for Microsoft Visio. Will my Citrix templates to be there? When I try to access Microsoft Outlook, my signature will be there? Will my custom dictionary to be correct? If the app the right plugins? If the screens are configured exactly as I have?

For the sake of argument, let's say, can guarantee that all the XenApp servers the same set of applications hosting are identical installed and configured. What will you do when the user to restart the access to the server?

Everything a user variations to be added in the configuration slowly, until one day-BAM! -the app is not loaded or a plugin fails. All these slight variations add up a lot faster than when compared to a conventional PC, because rather than a single user PC for months access hosting thousands of users in a matter of days on a XenApp server.

For this reason, we lifetime servers require consistency for XenApp, which is our next best practice

XenApp best practice # 3 :. must hold to deliver servers the same set of applications configuration consistency throughout life.

Intel, Citrix Charismathics and unlock virtual smart card authentication

Intel, Citrix Charismathics and unlock virtual smart card authentication -

Citrix endpoints got to make only safer.

, as here. Intel launched its Identity Protection Technology offer (Intel® IPT) in 2012, a simple, tamper-proof method of protecting access to customer and business data from threats and fraud. Intel IPT is now built into every Intel Inspired Ultrabook ™ devices and the latest business PCs using Intel® Core ™ vPro ™ processors.

increased interest in certificate-based authentication and brought Intel charismathics' seamlessly Intel IPT engine integrate with existing certificate-based authentication systems. Charismathics is a leading provider of smart card and PKI-based technology in Germany. The combination provides a seamless user experience compared to regular hardware tokens, smart cards or USB keys and makes it possible to use virtual smart cards with Citrix virtualized applications. You can find more information under charismathics CSSI for Intel Identity Protection Technology .

In conjunction with Citrix XenApp and XenDesktop, virtual smart card (or certificate-based) authentication find offers unparalleled ease of use and unmatched integrated endpoint security. The combination of Intel IPT engine charismathics' far PKI client software to use, and Citrix virtualization solutions revolutionizing the integration of endpoint and user authentication.

What could this mean to you?

Smart cards are widely used for providing high security for virtualized environments, but they can be a hassle for users and thus have high costs. can replace only the provision and tickets expensive. Virtual Smart Cards can reduce significantly affect these costs and Citrix users allow advantage of greater security to take over. Sven Gossel, CEO Charismathics expected to migrate not only from the physical smart cards, but also one or two factor authentication solutions for the convenience and security of certificate-based authentication as IPT technology finds its way into more devices.

Built on the standard interfaces # 11 PKCS offering Intel / Charismathics solution advanced secure PIN entry, an optional second factor and PIN management options. And it does away with any accessories that can be forgotten or to be mounted - it's just a much simpler way with certificates circumvent

Smartcards a relatively expensive investment in security represent .. Virtual smart cards offer similar security with an increased ease of use and reduced support costs. And the good news is that the organization does not convert completely only virtual smartcards must. The charismathics software gives you the ability to support both physical and virtual cards. You can select the "token type", which is good for certain user groups and specific Citrix product. And charismathic software can be used with almost all versions of Citrix Receiver.

Would you like to start?

Comparing the digital workplace Mobile Workspaces

Comparing the digital workplace Mobile Workspaces -

Today I'm at Gartner Digital Workplace Summit, Gartner positions as "Workplace Reimagined. Agile, committed and Empowered" I am here because I'm interested to hear what they have to say about reimagining the workplace, and how what they say is similar to the concept of mobile workspaces by Citrix.

The Digital Workplace

What did I learn about the Gartner concept of "digital workplace"? In her keynote, Chris Howard and Susan Landry talked about how a digital business is one that blurs the digital and the physical world, and that this extends to the digital workplace that combine factors people, business and affairs in personal experience ,

[1945001imdigitalenArbeitsplatz] is the workforce to the business to make contributions encouraged consumer-like experience within the workforce with that people-centered in its design. In the digital workplace, IT is an observer and facilitator for technology that accumulated on the context of the workplace with meaningful, to make decisions, how the technology is used and used. This is in contrast to how most IT organizations are still working today, where it relates to cost savings and deploying / managing applications are generally more focused. In the digital workplace, not only provide tools, but always to observe and help employees develop workplace has a direct effect.

as more fantasy than reality this may sound, namely that part of the design of a keynote, a vision pitch. However, I do not think this is outside the realm of possibility. Consumerization combined with "Bring Your Own" allowed politics in the workforce have employee to have more participation and ownership of the tools they use.

At the forefront of technology, the Internet of Things (IoT) provides organizations simplify enormous potential, as the staff did their work and collecting useful context information received, as with the tools, the organization provides interact. combining self-learning capabilities with analytics allow organizations to serve to tweak the user experience on an ongoing basis tp.

There are many other examples and so on reflection, the concept of a digital work is not so far-fetched. Gartner also pointed out that there is no single provider today announced that all of this can deliver. To implement this vision, organizations need to invest in an ecosystem, to ensure that all parts of this ecosystem go well together. This will require a long-term vision that shows the organization in this new direction, and help the organization, such as the pieces carry mature in this ecosystem.

Comparing a digital workplace Mobile Workspaces

how does a comparison, a "digital workplace" on "Mobile Workspaces'? Both are focused on to the personal experience of the staff . improve Digital jobs pushes the organization to use and promote employee engagement. Mobile workspaces integrate many different skills enabling people to, to work from anywhere better to help the organization to keep up with the workforce changing. So, while Gartner may be about 'jobs' and we talk about 'workspaces', in reality, the impact on the organization is similar, something that we talk imply when we say: "redefine the modern workplace and mobile workspaces transform your business powered by Citrix. "

Demonstration of Citrix Cloud Bridge virtual WAN solution -

Citrix Synergy 2015 was particularly exciting for Cloudbridge team. We announced the new Cloudbridge virtual WAN offer, presented the concept of tourism and the benefits that accrue to him and presented a live demo of the virtual WAN technology.

If you did not make it to the Cloud Bridge demo pod in the Synergy Expo area virtual WAN technology to experience firsthand, here is the next best thing: a recorded video demonstration

In our previous blog 'Time to rethink your WAN architecture ", we pointed out that Cloudbridge virtual WAN enables companies bandwidth to scale-up and improve reliability at significantly lower cost than traditional approaches. corporate networks are tense times of ever-increasing demands of the evolving work areas where high-bandwidth data transfers run alongside HD video and interactive graphics loaded applications and VDI sessions over WAN.

network security is of paramount importance, because most applications and data centrally on data center or hosted on the cloud. If the power to go, were down and store lose access to the data center then the productivity of branch users drops dramatically. Deploying expensive backup MPLS links is a way to overcome this problem, but can do better than that, companies by Cloudbridge virtual WAN utilization to increase reliability by connecting diverse set of public WAN links, together with the active MPLS connection or logical interconnect two MPLS links from different providers in active-active configuration.

This demo video shows how to encounter companies IT this challenge Cloudbridge virtual WAN with logically several network connectivity options including MPLS and Internet links. to connect

We heard: The Top 3 Challenges Our client

We heard: The Top 3 Challenges Our client - Overlooking

During this synergy Keynote year our CEO, Mark Templeton highlighted experience as one of the three main pillars driving Citrix. For us is experience, not our products is limited - it is important that every interaction with our company is a great experience

In this sense, align the CX team some unique. to show experiences by Synergy to our customers that we are listening.

With travel mapping and visual sketchnoting, we collected customer comments live show feedback and stories on the ground - and our customers much had to tell us. Here are the three top IT challenges Customers told us:

# 1 - End User Adoption. IT teams are happy about new Citrix products or upgrades coasting, but with one big problem: their employees as the old familiar setups and are tired of the new stuff. Demonstrate the value and benefits of Citrix products to end users is to get aboard critical end users. If users have a bad experience, also a time when they are likely to change even more to be in the future. Sounds familiar? One of our customers at the show said it best: "Sometimes even the best technology can not overcome cultural barriers."

# 2 - Change the workforce. The employees, the companies are now setting are not the same people who hired them ten or even five years ago. It used to be that the staff were happy just to get a business laptop, but now they are challenging the ability of tablets or phones to work - to bring in their own devices, which are not sanctioned company. Adding mobility solutions and BYOD programs can be a confusing, overwhelming project and customers for consulting and best practices looking to us

# 3 -. Safety. Not only the employees are bringing their own devices to work, they have to find their own ways of sharing data. Sending files with consumer file-sharing services like Dropbox can cause susceptibility to important company data. Recent major vulnerabilities in the media put more focus and the pressure on IT teams provide robust data protection. Our customers are looking for solutions that allow for flexibility and speed, while keeping the integrity of their corporate data.

These three trends were certainly not the only issues that we hear about at the show. Customers told us about many other things on their minds as regards migration, product feature requests and ways they use our products, we never thought!

We hear you.

But what comes next? We want to ensure that the right team at Citrix hear and understand the major challenges these comments. The first step is the visibility and awareness.

We have taken some of the larger asset and have it replicated in our offices, exactly as they appeared on the show. No prettying or softening of the comments -. Feedback appears exactly as we were told

We have gone through all the customer reviews and comments and report it the chain product teams and Citrix leadership. The comments, photos and sketch notes will be shared in their original form and are supplied in this week our leaders so that they can transfer the acquired emotion see face around the IT challenges of our customers.

Finally, we are very similar to publish a report on this article, which will go in the next few weeks for all Citrix employees, so that all of us a chance to review and reflect what our customers told us at Synergy.

These are only the first steps. In the coming weeks I will further information on the specific activities we share with Synergy and the knowledge we learned arranged by our customers. So please, stay tuned and set to share your voice with us.

Have something to tell us? We are happy to hear from them! Find us on Twitter at @CitrixCX or us send an email to us cxlistens@citrix.com~~V and say what you is a challenge.

Nuestra competitividad en riesgo: ¿Cómo puede ayudarnos la movilidad empresarial -

La it competitividad una búsqueda constante de toda una empresa y tarea que nunca termina ?. Se trata de tener siempre los sentidos alerta buscando nuevas formas de ser más competitivos en el mercado; por eso está a la asociada innovación, a la eficiencia y a la tecnología. En este post me gustaría analizar con ustedes el potencial de la movilidad empresarial para las incrementar posibilidades y oportunidades del negocio. Y para hacerlo quiero contarles algunas Situaciones que ponen testati la competitividad de la empresa y cómo lograron solucionarlas empresas Reales de Latinoamérica.

Brindarle a los los datos y aplicaciones que necesitan

empleados

Una de las claves para ser más competitivos it poder Darles a nuestros empleados Todas las herramientas que necesitan para realizar su trabajo y que puedan acceder a ellas desde cualquier dispositivo. Viña Santa Rita de Chile, identificó que sus empleados necesitaban Mayor Movilidad y acceso a las aplicaciones corporativas from cualquier dispositivo. Esto implica que los empleados que trabajan directamente en la Viña puedan tener información en tiempo real del estado de las delivers y controlar su crecimiento. Y esto no es menor si pensamos que una Parra se coloca para el mismo lugar tenerla en 50 años, se si es un error de coloca times 50 años. Por otro lado, aquellos empleados que trabajan en el área de Ventas pueden tener información constantemente actualizada del Stock de Vinos y de los precios sin importar en qué lugar del mundo se esté realizando esa venta.

Mudarnos de oficina o abrir nuevas sucursales sin que el negocio Sufra en el intento

El crecimiento de todo negocio suele incluir mudanzas hacia lugares más amplios o la apertura de Nuevas sucursales y esto no ser un factor de crisis tiene que. It posible hacerlo y seguir siendo competitivos antes, durante y después de este proceso de cambio. Algo similar ocurrió con Mapfre México , ellos se embarcaron en el proyecto de mudar sus oficinas de Interlomas a Reforma lo cual implicaba MigrAr al 70% de su personal. Para solucionarlo, Trabajamos junto con ellos habilitando 0 puestos de trabajo en el nuevo edificio virtualizando sus aplicaciones y ESCRITORIOS; de esta forma el personal que sólo tuvo ir al nuevo edificio y comenzar a trabajar. No hubo necesidad de hacer una mudanza urgente de todos los equipos que tradicionales tenían. Y el negocio pudo fluir de forma normal durante el proceso de transición.

mejorar la atención a nuestros clientes

La satisfacción del it cliente otro factor relevant, y la clave de los negocios it actuales poder Darle al cliente las respuestas que necesita desde cualquier lugar y dispositivo. La empresa Blu Logistics está basada en Colombia pero opera en China, Argentina y Estados Unidos, pero gracias a la nube y aplicaciones virtualizadas ellos pueden atender las necesidades de sus clientes de forma remota sin necesidad de MigrAr su personally esos lugares. Ellos logran la satisfacción de sus clientes atendiendo a sus necesidades desde cualquier dispositivo y accediendo a toda la información necesaria para resolver sus pedidos e inquietudes.

reducir costos e incrementar la Productividad

reducir lograr los costos it también un factor relevant de Términos de la competitividad, por eso los invitamos an empty el post "El impacto de la movilidad empresarial en el ahorro de costos de tu empresa ". Pero si a la reducción de costos le sumamos incrementar la Productividad, esto puede ser la diferencia entre nuestra forma de operar y la de nuestros competidores. La Pontificia Universidad Javeriana de Cali , gracias a la virtualization implementó un programa de BYOD que permite que sus más de 7,000 Estudiantes puedan utilizar para cualquier dispositivo acceder al entorno académico. Este proyecto Implico un cambio culture al dejar atrás un sistema de tradicional PCs desplegar una serie de clientes delgados y permitir que los Estudiantes nozzles sus propios dispositivos. Al centralizar su infraestructura, ellos lograron mejorar la Productividad en un 75%, un ahorro en mantenimiento y soporte del 80% y un ahorro de Energía de hasta un 75%.

it Definitivamente posible ser más competitivos incorporando tecnologías y creando espacios de trabajo móviles. La it movilidad hoy mucho más que una tendencia, es un aspecto clave a contemplar por Aquellas Compañías que MOST dispuestas a innovar, a revolucionar la forma en que Trabajamos y hacemos negocios y que quieran continuar un camino de crecimiento sostenido por la Productividad y la eficiencia ,

Meet the Citrix Certified Instructor - Melvin Porter -

Welcome to Meet the Instructor , a series where we have the extremely talented and knowledgeable Citrix Certified Instructors (CCIs) meet, teach and interact with Citrix Education students daily. Today we have a long-time CCI Melvin Porter Dimension Data Learning Solutions are meeting

Where do you live

I grew up in Cape Town, South Africa.? - The most beautiful city in the world - but currently live in the most liveable city in the world.? - Melbourne, Australia

How did your career working with Citrix technologies start

I was for the first time at the time of MetaFrame 1.8 (late 190s) exposed to Citrix, but I then more involved with me Metaframe XP and later versions. This initial exposure was while I / Mathematics was actually a biology / chemistry teacher, but also looked after the infrastructure of a high / secondary school I was an IT administrator as well.

I fell in the IT role by accident. In one of my first teaching roles, I was asked by an officer, what I knew about Windows NT. I replied, "???? Windows NT Server or Windows NT Workstation NT 3.51 or the released soon NT 4.0" Apparently knowing something, even if only very little time to over NT me me qualify the admin to be, because that's when she asked me to look for the school network!

What is your favorite place is to teach courses and why?

I have always enjoyed the teaching of XenApp courses and now the XenApp & XenDesktop. These courses are often the ones where people may be exposed to Citrix, for the first time. As an educator, I get their eyes light up, to see if they realize the power and potential of Citrix as a solution for their environment. Light bulb moments are my favorite!

My favorite class experience is where the laboratory does not quite work for a student. If things do not work is perfect if you really want to learn, maintain and explore more. Not only do you get to teach the product, but get to explore methods and troubleshooting - something you need every day

What advice would you give to an IT professional who is considering a Citrix Education Class !?

go to class with an open mind, and be willing to change how you do things. Very often IT professionals teach how to do every day tasks - this is an excellent way to learn, but unfortunately can unknowingly incorrectly or not to do to best practices in accordance things to be

your teacher is there. run and to demonstrate the capabilities of the product. It is up to you to take this knowledge and apply it. you will benefit in the long run see

What is your favorite memories in a class of the teaching

[-Encouragetheforcestosendemployeesoncoursessoonerratherthanlater?

I was a Citrix Presentation Server 3.0 course to a full class lessons and during the introduction of student presented as follows:

"G'day - I {insert name here}, I am from { insert company here}, I have been sent on this course of my manager, I do not know why. I hate Citrix, it is a waste product and I do not want to be here this week. "

The class was quiet, you could cut the atmosphere with a knife. Some people laughed, others writhed awkwardly. In an optimistic voice I replied, "Well, we're going to have to change this perception and show you what can really do Citrix You will be amazed.." He was unfazed and ran from me, and I felt like an uninvited guest at a small dinner party. At this moment, I would rather be somewhere else, but it!

During the day and he was completing the labs, I heard something along the lines of "Pffft - Never this feature work before" seen. He realized what he had done wrong in its production network - Ding! Thing! Thing! - Bulb moment. During the week, I heard more and more of these kinds of comments. Thing! Thing! Thing! Thing! Thing! Thing! His behavior changed and until the end of the week he was really into it. At the end of the week, he thanked me personally had left after each. He admitted, much to learn and to enjoy the product. Over time, I noticed he was popping up more and more in all Citrix classes. He calls himself the Citrix Evangelist at work now. Love it


What talent your hidden

dad jokes - Nothing like a good dad joke! I see it as a talent, my children to see it as a curse. I try to mix them in the same time with IT. For example, I have a large UDP joke - but I'm not sure you get it! It is the NTP joke, but that's really difficult because the timing to be just right!

If a student has never met a course with you what they will be surprised by most, if then get? in the classroom with you

I tend to teach with a lot of analogies - it is something that is often mentioned in the course reviews. I find something that students can relate to convey in a simple way and then that tie with the concept that I try.

I even explained malls XenApp Balancing to jump through analogies and away from a tram-drawing (a familiar sight in Melbourne). If you jump on a tram and then you realize an emptier tram behind you ... well, you jump from the tram and get to the blank. The same applies for load balancing in XenApp -. If there is a less loaded server that is available after the session has started, you must log off and log back in to get the loaded Least Server

How would anyone want to get in touch when it a class with you:

I want to take http://www.ddls.com.au a full-time teacher at dimension Data Learning Solutions (DDLS) - we have branches throughout Australia? , DDLS has a great blog also, https://www.ddls.com.au/blog - are heaps of useful information.

Automate management of NetScaler with Puppet Labs -

operations teams are expected to increasingly complex to manage nascent infrastructure while to meet the business expectations for the application deployment in these days.

DevOps practices can be used to allow operations teams to scale servers and applications without time-consuming manual configuration quickly and efficiently. Extending DevOps functionality for Application Delivery Controller is critical and part needs to be any fully functioning DevOps software package.

The world is increasingly moving to a model where infrastructure is managed as a code provided and scaled. NetScaler is designed to have the best APIs and interfaces, fully accessible to the best modern infrastructure management tools to ensure. Puppet Labs has been at the forefront of this movement and we see an increase in our customers who want to integrate and deploy processes as part of their DevOps the NetScaler.

The Puppet Enterprise Module for NetScaler

, the Citrix NetScaler team and the Puppet Labs module team are the availability of Puppet Enterprise supports Citrix NetScaler module to announce. With this module you can manage NetScaler physical and virtual appliances. Puppet combines tools and processes, the silos are housed used to, so that you can manage all the benefits of your infrastructure as code. With its declarative, model-based approach to IT automation enables Puppet Enterprise solution that features like various perform as automating simple repetitive tasks providing great public, private and hybrid clouds.

this operations teams implement the functionality let, automate and configure an entire application infrastructure "stack" including compute, network and storage management. This gives the opportunity to extend application developers elastically and contract infrastructure resources to automate application testing and application development to reduce timeframes.

stood Switching to a Dev / Ops Model
Before Puppet module available, NetScaler administrators manual configuration would use the interaction or scripts using the REST API or via SSH manage initial configuration and ongoing configuration changes. These practices are of the Automation Tooling used silos accommodated to manage the computing systems. The new Puppet module means that changes and calculate the ADCs can be written, to be reviewed and used in combination, to reduce complexity and streamline the development process.

In addition to change management process improvements to manage Puppet configuring NetScaler device gives the user to automate the advantages of the infrastructure as a code. NetScaler administrators can take advantage of version control, code portability and promotion, peer review, continuous delivery and rollbacks, all read in a accessible for people configuration language.

Stream Migration to the cloud
an application in the cloud is a complex process, the company's application performance, security, infrastructure to consider the cost and complexity of management requires. can be ensured using the Puppet Enterprise Module for NetScaler, consistent configuration and deployment applications, whether those applications are deployed on premise or in public cloud infrastructures.

virtualizing servers, storage and networking fully an important requirement for an automated business. Puppet Enterprise builds on the flexibility of a virtualized infrastructure allows modeling, automated push-button installation and configuration management. The ability to model, test, and then configuration changes in the private, public and hybrid cloud deployment provides an efficient use of infrastructure resources and enabling businesses, ability to most effectively use these resources.

Internet of Things: Solve educational challenges -

The Internet of Things and the integration of all

If the Internet of Things ( IoT) overhyped or underrated? This is a question that we asked in a recent article by Citrix trends and innovation. In this article we are prepared to points we have previously made, that within the company, which expanded IoT possible talks about things, to integrate together to everything. We believe that the opportunity presented by the integration of all is solid, and we are just now beginning to scratch the surface, which means that chance. Already industry-specific examples of the integration of all there, just looking at industrial IoT smarter cities and health care as a few pictures.

The integration of all and Higher Education

Recently the Citrix Labs team has decided to take a closer look at, could as the integration of all Higher Education effect. Why this market? As part of our research in Higher Ed, we talked with a large number of colleges and universities, and all of them to us, that they are all on the pressure are to how they can be used successfully more students. And they are interested in how technology can help them more students are reached, while ensuring successful student performance. That sounded like the perfect opportunity for Octoblu and integration of all.

One of the discussions we had was with Duane Look, Director of Client Services of Indiana University. Duane and I had a chance in a webinar about some of the challenges facing education speak today, and what kind of innovations that we could see from IoT, which may change the face of modern education. display in this webinar, click here.

We also launched Project Minerva, to investigate an effort of Citrix Labs, as we can use the integration of all to automate the class. The idea is simple and easy to make classroom content to provide to a wider audience, students guaranteed access to lesson content can get, when and where they need to. If you are interested in learning more about Project Minerva, and perhaps with the Citrix Labs team in claim take to share your thoughts, please go to the Minerva project page and register for the beta.We would be pleased with you talk and learn more about how the Internet of things and the integration of all could be more successfully used to help your students.

(Son) monitoring Secure LDAP servers with Citrix NetScaler -

A few years back, my colleague Holger Füßler has a bang-up job of blogging about Citrix NetScaler capabilities to monitor the secure LDAP server.

Since then, the facilities have not done anything in this area, but in NetScaler, and that is to improve good news! With the release of 11.0 recently, and the first released Build-55.23-there is a new function Secure LDAP monitor natively without the modification of Perl scripts, as was required in the original blog post.

Now, it is the ticking of a checkbox and away we go!

Here's the recipe!

1. Add a new monitor of Traffic Management> Monitors

2. Select LDAP from the drop-down list

3. Check the safe option to the ground

4. Click Special to the parameter tab

5. Select nsldap.pl from the script name drop-down list

6. Fill the base DN Bind DN and password fields

7. Click create

8. Next is our load balancing service. Navigate to Traffic Management> Load Balancing> Services and click Add .

9. In this example, I use a SSL_TCP service on TCP port 636 for secure LDAP populate the IP address of the server to monitor, selecting SSL_TCP from the protocol [is drop-down list and the change of connection box 636. another configuration option SSL_TCP with TCP port 389 for LDAP over TLS. Click OK when happy with your selections.

10. Next, we need to bind the monitor that we created. Navigate to the monitors section and click to load on 1 Service Balancing monitor binding .

11. Click Add bond

12. Click Select Monitor

13. click the radio button for the new monitor and click Select .

14. Click Bind and then Close .

15. Voila! They have monitored a new service who successfully secure LDAP server! Feel free to bind it to an exit or create a new virtual server, and you are good to go!

'Until next time,
