DESCRIPTION
You're excited about the new features in App-V 4.5, but where do you get started? This talk is meant to guide IT administrators through the App-V deployment decision process. Specifically, we discuss the various deployment types, pros and cons for each type of deployment, and performance and scalability issues. By the end of the presentation, IT administrators will be able to identify the deployment that is best suited for their preferences and infrastructure.

Introduction to ASR, OSR, ISR
ASR = Application Source Root OSR = OSD Source RootISR = Icon Source RootThese are overrides that can be modified within the registry
Settings are globalEnable greater ease of management
Can be set dynamically based on the site

Server Synchronization
1) Import Package into Management ServerSet appropriate permissionsDo not enable the package at this point
2) Distribute the package to streaming serversThis includes OSDs, Icons, SFTsRemember to maintain the same directory structure
3) Enable the packages on the management server

Streaming OptionsIIS
IIS provides better scalability and more launches per minute than the RTSP streaming serverIIS is already setup and managed in many environments
RTSPActive upgrade is ready to use out of the box – no client configuration required
FILEProvides the ability to get applications without a server infrastructure
All options provide differential streaming App-V Infrastructure

Standalone MSI Scenario
Standardized method for deploying applications
MSI does the publishing for youMore details in the demo
Sequencer generates MSI directlyDeploy via device, SCCM or 3rd partyNo App-V servers required

Standalone MSIdemo
Standalone MSI Scenario Recap
Great if you already use packages with MSIRequires the following settings:
Network\Online = 0Configuration\RequireAuthorizationIfCached = 0Network\LimitDisconnectedOperation = 0
The SFT needs to be in the same directory

Standalone SFTMIME Scenario
SFTMIME is the command line tool installed with the App-V clientApp-V 4.5 has a new manifest file that allows you to do publishing easily with SFTMIMECan achieve the same functionality as MSI publishing and add your own customizations

Application Virtualization in Configuration Manager R2
Integrate Application Virtualization into System Center Configuration Manager 2007 R2New in ConfigMgr 2007 R2:
Enables customers using ConfigMgr to manage and deploy virtual applicationsClient roaming is supported so the client is always going to the “closest” server
Maintain the dynamic nature of Application virtualization
Version checking, user-based targeting, streamingApp-V Infrastructure

ESD Infrastructure
Config Manager R2 Core Scenarios
•Create virtual application packages and copy them to distribution points
Packaging and distribution of virtual
applications
•Advertise the packages to clients
Deployment of virtual applications to clients
(connected and offline)
•After the application is advertised and made available, end-users run the applications from their desktop computers
Launching and running virtual applications
(connected and offline)
•SCCM inventory and reports enable administrators to report on packages, applications and their usage within the SCCM hierarchy
Inventory and Reporting of virtual applications
Streaming Delivery – End-to-EndAdmin creates vapp package
App Virt Cache
Client
User launches the application and
streams directly from DP
Package is replicated to DP‘s
Streaming-Enabled DP
The program information is used by SCCM to publish virtual
application
Only blocks required to run the application are
downloaded
SCCM Admin
SCCM Site Server
SCCM Client refers to program information on the DP to register the package
Download and Execute– End-to-EndAdmin
creates vapp package
App Virt Cache
Client
Package (SFT) is pushed to
client via BITS
Package is replicated to

SCCM publishes virtual
application
When launched, package is loaded

Client
Advanced Client talks to
MP and performs a
location request
Once the DP location is established, the Advanced Client sets the source URL for the
package via SFTMIME
Adv Client hands off to
App Virt client for vapp
streaming
