aggregation function
• More extensible platform
• Support any SAML-based applications View HTML 5 Client
• Better performanceCitrix’s attempt to fix long time complexity
issue
• XenApp is now on FMA. Difficult to migrate from IMA
• Simpler only if using MCS. Using PVS is still complex
• Only support Windows 2008 R2 SP1 and later. Customers still have applications running on Windows 2003
• Publishing application in batch mode is incremental improvement
• AppDNA is only available in Platinum edition
• Application virtualization goes to AppV. Reduces XenApp value and increases complexity.
vCOPS for View provides true end-to-end monitoring and analytics from datacenter to the end userView has provided access to physical PCs for a
long time

3D Graphics Acceleration
Status
Reason
XenServer leverages NVIDIA’s VGX software to support the latest DirecX and OpenGL. XenServer also supports GPU passthrough for years now.
XenDesktop gets all vSphere capabilities too.
Strategy
Support multiple GPU vendors (NVIDIA, AMD, and more)
Response
XenServer has limited capabilities, supports NVIDIA only, delayed support for vSphere
Product API GPU passthrough

XenDesktop + vSphere DirectX 9 OpenGL2.1 Yes
Microsoft RDS 2012 DirectX 9, 10,11 OpenGL 1.1 No
24 Confidential
XenDesktop 7 Limited Value
The Bottom line
XenDesktop 7’s only major feature is integration with XenApp – HOWEVER it comes at a HIGH price:
• Upgrading XenApp deployments to XD 7- App Edition requires database changes and in many cases breaks the environment
• Upgrading XD environments is multi-hop depending on what version you are on
• XD 7 requires NetScaler for secure remote access
• Simplification is limited to using MCS. With PVS, it is still complex
• XD 7 scalability is not proven in real large scale deployments
• XD 7 reliability is questionable with over 150 documented known issues.
• XD 7 requires Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 but many customers still running XenApp on Windows Server 2003.

Android Landscape
Widely popular in developing countries
• Lots of choice – screen size, price, capabilities, etc.
Not much traction in enterprise segment
• Perception is that Android is not secure
• Google Play is ‘wild wild west’
• Enterprise features (eg: MDM) weak
Security
• No two devices are the same in terms of capabilities or UI
• Hard for IT to support diverse environmentFragmentation
• OS upgrades are controlled by carrier/OEM
• Security patches not pushed out in a timely mannerControl

MDM and MAM for Android
Mobile Device Management (MDM)• Google Android offers a limited set of
device & policy settings
• Typically, device control is relinquished from user to the enterprise
• Top Vendors: Mobile Iron, Airwatch, Citrix/Zenprise/Xenmobile
• Long list of vendors including Blackberry, Microsoft, IBM and more
Issues• Not appropriate in the Bring Your Own
Device world to lockdown the device
• Does not prevent data leak
• Intrusive user experience
Mobile Application Management (MAM)
• Containerization of application and data
• Polices are applied at application level
• Looked as a better approach than MDM
Issues
• Malware can compromise the whole device, keyboard logging
• Applications must be modified and tested
• Fragmentation issue still exists
• Mixing personal and work spaces degrades user experience
• IT has no control over the OS updates
