GEC NEWS WIREXenApp Platinum edition now includes the full power of Citrix AppDNA application migration technology
Citrix has launched next generation Citrix XenApp product which the company claimed the market-leading app virtualization solution.
The company said that with out-of-the-box support for Amazon Web Services (AWS) and CloudPlatform powered by Apache CloudStack clouds, and Microsoft Azure cloud support under development, XenApp is the only solution that can be easily deployed both in the cloud and on-premises with the same management interfaces and skillsets.
The new XenApp 7.5 is built on the FlexCast Management Architecture used in the Citrix XenDesktop solution which provides a single console from which customers can deliver both virtual apps and desktops. With 25 years of delivering virtual apps to 330,000 customers, XenApp allows users to simply see a selection of available apps at their disposal. These apps might originate from any of five generations of Windows, all hosted and managed from the same infrastructure.
XenApp Platinum edition now includes the full power of Citrix AppDNA application migration technology, which can reduce time and overhead of application virtualization and platform migrations by as much as 90 percent. The inclusion of all the AppDNA capabilities helps IT address a variety of migration issues, including how to virtualize applications ahead of Microsoft Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 end-of-life milestones.
Rakesh Narasimhan, Group VP and GM (Desktops and Apps), Citrix, said, “Increasingly, the mobile workforces of today demand a great experience with Windows applications. The new release of XenApp not only delivers on the Citrix vision of mobile workspaces for customers, with a powerful user experience, but allows companies to take full advantage of the flexibility of hybrid public and private clouds to optimize their IT infrastructures for the rapidly changing business environment.”
