Question 25

Scenario: A Citrix Architect is designing a new Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops environment. The customer previously installed all applications locally on managed laptops and desktops, but is willing to evaluate other application delivery methods as part of the new deployment. The environment will be standardized on Windows 10 for the Virtual Delivery Agent (VDA) machines.

As part of an application analysis performed earlier in the project, the information in the exhibit was collected regarding 1 of the required applications.

Click the Exhibit button to view the information.

The customer's security policies mandate that all development software must run within the corporate data center, but should appear to the user as if it is running locally on the virtual machine (VM).

How should the architect recommend deploying the application?

    Correct Answer: A

    Given the customer's security policies and the need for the application to appear as if it's running locally on the virtual machine while still being managed within the corporate data center, using Desktop OS machines to deliver VM hosted applications is the most appropriate solution. This method allows applications to be hosted on virtual machines in the data center and delivered to users' devices, providing a seamless experience that mimics local application execution. Despite various opinions, the key requirement is ensuring the application runs within the corporate data center and appears to run locally on the VM, which is best achieved with VM hosted applications.

Discussion
MekaliOption: A

Answer A is correct: https://docs.citrix.com/en-us/xenapp-and-xendesktop/7-15-ltsr/technical-overview/delivery-methods/vm-hosted-apps.html

jdstroyOption: A

Read the first topic "Use Case" - you'll find almost the same text as the question: https://docs.citrix.com/en-us/xenapp-and-xendesktop/7-15-ltsr/technical-overview/delivery-methods/vm-hosted-apps.html

Sandy909Option: A

"A" is correct

SuperTedOption: A

Answer A: VM Hosted applications have the same seamless application experience as hosting shared applications on Server OS machines. https://docs.citrix.com/en-us/xenapp-and-xendesktop/7-15-ltsr/technical-overview/delivery-methods/vm-hosted-apps.html

FvicenteOption: A

Your users are internal, external contractors, third-party collaborators, and other provisional team members. Your users do not require offline access to hosted applications.

DipakSanadiOption: A

A is correct

keplerOption: A

technically, C is also correct. However, Elastic layer kind of overkill and from end users perspective, achieves the same result as Desktop OS -VM hosted apps. Better answer is A.

kepler

On second though, I think D is a better solution. for VM hosted apps, it does not appear to users as seamless desktop. With D, users see full desktop.

kepler

I meant C, not D

Elastic layer does NOT work for apps that include drivers and services. App-V is sort of in the same boat so both options are out. That makes A the likely answer.

jijc76Option: C

I think is App layer like elastic layer, because they want "should appear to the useras if it is running locally on the VM" and this app has a few windows services, maybe because needs to integrate with other apps or services running in the VM.

Elastic layer does NOT work for apps that include drivers or services.

jintojinOption: D

I think D is correct A is wrong. according to Customer's security policies, all development software must run within the corporate data center. But the software should appear like it is running locally on the vm. Elastic Layer does not support visual studio(include services).

jintojin

Sorry, A is correct. stream App-v is stream.

Dan53Option: D

I am going with D. A can not be, since they want the application to appear local to the VDA. A is to publish the application only instead of providing a full desktop.

ayushwithuOption: C

Elastic Layering Limitations: You cannot elastically layer the following: Microsoft Office, Office 365, Visual Studio. Applications with drivers that use the driver store. Example: a printer driver. Applications that modify the network stack or hardware. Example: a VPN client. Applications that have boot level drivers. Example: a virus scanner.
