Will 2014 Bring more of the same BYOD? -

As 2014 approaches, many computer experts publish their forecasts and trends for the new year. To add to the mix, we interviewed more than 700 customers around the world to gather ideas on mobility of the current business and bring your own device (BYOD) trends and predictors for 2014.

this is what we found:

BYO means more Smartphones and tablets that

Although the focus of BYO programs has been on tablets and smartphones, companies are also increasingly have to support desktops and computers portable. The survey found BYO desktop and laptops will increase to 25% in 2014. An influx of devices are flooding businesses, and it will secure applications and business data across a heterogeneous mix of devices and platforms.

Windows Apps will continue to dominate

Enterprise mobility and "mobile" are the first topical issues. However, the survey found that mobile applications represent only 6% of all applications used. Windows applications still dominate, accounting for 64% of all applications in 2013. Although it is slightly declining trend with an estimated 54% in 2014, the majority of types of applications is still based on Windows. So while mobile is fashionable, Windows applications remain important, and IT must still deliver these applications on a variety of devices that users remain productive.

More mobile application proliferation and Confusion

for many companies, the growth of mobile devices and applications is largely motivated by the desire of employees be more productive on the road. In 2014, the number of applications in use by organizations increase. The survey found 42% of companies expect to manage 100+ applications, with 21% of respondents expect to manage more than 1,000 applications

App confusion will continue in its struggle to answer key questions, including :.

• Determining whether to wait for the mobile versions of native or commercial-off-shelf cloud applications are available
• decide which platforms (iOS, Android, WinPhone, etc. ) within the developed applications should support and in what order
• Keep out the adoption of other native mobile applications for the web or cloud based applications
• Creation of the structure and the appropriate organizational processes to support the development and management of a heterogeneous application environment

new points year over BYOD challenges variety of devices and applications increase . As companies develop their mobility initiatives, secure access to work applications and data to mobile devices will be top of mind.

Despite the rocky road ahead, companies will continue to look for creative ways to leverage mobility to grow the top line, improve customer relationships, and drive higher levels of productivity and efficiency. He must have a plan in place and adopt enterprise mobility management solution that allows them to adapt to dynamic changes in their BYOD environment.

Flexibility will be the key! See the full report for more information on mobility trends in 2014.

Policy labels authorization to manage access to virtual server -

Our eDocs perfectly explain how to configure authorization policies associated with users and groups AAA. But in some cases, you want to link AD groups to a resource, instead of linking resources to AD groups. The end result will be the same, but it offers some additional flexibility if it comes down to management. You could call the solution below "Access Role-based" we'll consolidation groups in a "role" which will be associated with a vserver LB / CS

This is how the solution looks like graphically: .

to configure what we create labels create two political authorization for the Power user and regular users under security> AAA> authorization> political labels.

for each label policy, you need to insert a policy with a significant policy name, the action "Allow" and the phrase the key phrase here is to use eg.

 HTTP.REQ.USER. IS_MEMBER_OF ( "Group1") 

More details on how to use the expressions of HTTP.REQ.USER policy can be found in eDocs. all the resulting political expressions labels is shown below

Next, we need to configure or modify a LB or existing vserver CS (Traffic Management> Load Balancing> virtual servers or switching content > virtual Servers). Open the vserver, go to the "Policies" tab and select "Permission". We can now configure a refusal default policy rule with "inclusion policy". The rule that we create will always correspond, through the expression of "true" policy.

And invoke an additional label policy as configured below.

The beauty of Summon political labels is that you can avail of virtual multiple servers political labels without having to recreate the rule sets for each virtual server. The goal is to create an abstraction layer between your vserver objects and treatment of politics. This behavior applies to many types of policies with political labels such as rewriting, compression, AppFlow ... and authorization policies as used here.

2014: Taking The Next Step In Enterprise Mobility -

It sometimes seems like a broken record: when enterprise mobility finally succeed! Following this industry since 1995, many things have changed, but so has remained the same. No doubt the monumental changes in the enterprise mobility took place. The adoption and use are no longer the domain of vertical markets such as delivery and service field. Driven first by BlackBerry, and iPhone and 3G / 4G services all types of businesses and users have directly adopted the enterprise wireless communications. At least as far as the wireless email. It just feels like there's something missing, and that mobility is until we are on top of our mobile computing on laptops.

The impact of enterprise mobility is there for sure, but it is difficult to quantify and explain. Even as more users replace their laptops with tablet-it's just not the feeling that we are still here. But where "it" is? And are we ever going to happen? I wrote some thoughts for CIOReview about it and what to expect in the next year, entitled "Multiple Device At its peak in business." Perhaps, in fact, we will never be there until mobile technologies replace completely the way we do our computing and communications today. what I do not think that happens to everyone. Or maybe it will just take some time as technology mobile become an integral part of enterprise computing and computer systems. it is more likely, but whatever happens, and the time it will take the (r) evolution started.

Happy 2014!

Introduction to Microsoft App-V 5.0 for Citrix Application Streaming (CAS) The customer -

This guide introduces Microsoft App-V 5.0 with streaming Citix existing customers. Familiarity with Citrix Application Streaming (CAS) and relevant terminology is assumed. This document addresses the administrative components. The user experience is not covered.

This document applies to App-V 5.0 RTM, App-V 5.0 SP1 and App-V 5.0 SP2 at the time of writing. App-V now refers to App-V 5.0 (RTM, SP1 or SP2).

The text points to the links that will help you in configuring the App-V components.

Detailed information on integration, App-V 5.0 is included in the reference section.

1. Components

CAS had two compulsory and one optional components for deploying CAS applications. Streaming Profiler was used to capture changes when installing a "CAS profile." When Streaming Client will be indicated in these changes, extract them and use them to launch the application using the details of the environment specified by the CAS profile. If the CAS applications must be delivered through Citrix Receiver and CAS applications must be deployed on XenApp.

App-V 5.0 has components similar to that of the CAS.

1.1 App-V 5.0 Sequencer = Citrix Streaming Profiler

Using the Citrix Streaming Profiler, an administrator runs the Application Installer to create the Citrix streaming profile for this application .

App-V is equivalent component App-V Sequencer . Using App-V Sequencer is detailed here

1.2 App-V 5.0 client = Citrix Application streaming customer

When pointed CAS valid profile on the network Share, Citrix client streaming app used to "flow" needed files to the machine and used to run the applications in the CAS profile. App-V 5.0 has equivalent component called App-V 5.0 Client. Details deployment and use are mentioned here

1.3 App-V Management Server App-V + = Publishing Server Citrix XenApp

Citrix XenApp is used to deliver applications via Citrix Receiver CAS . XenApp is used to set the icon, the file type associations and Users for a CAS application. When a Citrix Receiver user points to the XenApp server, the user receives this request.

The role of metadata management is played by App-V Management Server and Publishing Server. Administrator configures users, file type associations, etc. in the App-V Management Server 5.0.

App -V Publishing Server is the App-V client interface used to access the data app. App-V Publishing Server URL is provided in the App-V Client configuration.

2. CAS & Deployment App-V 5.0 Deployment

3. connect groups in App-V = Inter isolation Communication in CAS

CAS applications executed in well-isolated bubbles called sandboxes. running application in a sandbox could not see or running access application in another sandbox.

CAS allowed users to connect several different profiles together. Applications in these related profiles could access the other. This was called as the Inter isolation communication (IIC).

Concept similar App-V is known as connection groups. Connection groups operate similar to IIC in the CAS. Two packages connected by connecting group can see and use the services of the other.

More details on the App-V connection groups are mentioned here and here

Connection unit must be used whenever the client used IIC earlier. For example. . Office + Adobe

Overview of IIC:

4. Why app-V 5.0 on Citrix Application Streaming?

1. The sequencing of App-V is easier than CAS Profiling
2. App-V 5.0 offers improved programmability via PowerShell cmdlets.
3. App-V 5.0 allows you to connect App-V 5.0 packages on the fly using the management server. CAS users need to create a separate profile for IIC.
4. App-V 5.0 Sequencer client does not separately install Microsoft Visual Studio Transmitted. They are realized as part of the package.
5. App-V CALs are included in the RDS CALs for Windows Server 08 and later.
